Pregnane-Type Steroids from the Formosan Soft Coral Scleronephthya flexilis

Pregnane-Type Steroids from the Formosan Soft Coral Scleronephthya flexilis

Three pregnane-type steroids, including a new metabolite, 3β-methoxy-5,20-pregnadiene (1) along with two known analogues, 3β-acetoxy-5,20-pregnadiene (2) and 5α-pregna-1,20-dien-3-one (3) were isolated from the soft coral Scleronephthya flexilis. Standard spectroscopic techniques were used to deter...
