Polyoxygenated sterols from the South China Sea soft coral Sinularia sp.


ABSTRACT: Chemical investigation of the ethanol extract of soft coral Sinularia sp. collected from the South China Sea led to the isolation of three new polyoxygenated sterols, (3S,23R,24S)-ergost-5-ene-3β,23α,25-triol (1), (24S)-ergostane-6-acetate-3β,5α,6β,25-tetraol (2), (24S)-ergostane-6-acetate-3β,6β,12β,25-tetraol (3) together with three known ones (4-6). The structures, including relative configurations of the new compounds (1-3), were elucidated by detailed analysis of spectroscopic data (IR, UV, NMR, MS) and by comparison with related reported compounds. The absolute configuration of 1 was further determined by modified Mosher's method. Compound 5 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against K562 cell line with an IC(50) value of 3.18 μM, but also displayed strong lethality toward the brine shrimp Artemia salina with a LC(50) value of 0.96 μM.
