Abstract
Chemical investigation of the Taiwanese gorgonian coral Junceella juncea resulted in the isolation of four new briarane-type diterpenoids, juncenolides H, I, J, and K (1-4). Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, especially 1- and 2D-NMR. The inhibitory effects of compounds 1-4 on superoxide-anion generation and elastase release by human neutrophils were evaluated.
