Clavukellines A–N: Dolabellane Diterpenes from the Soft Coral Clavularia koellikeri

Chemical investigation of the soft coral Clavularia koellikeri led to the isolation of fourteen new diterpenoid derivatives clavukellines A–N (1–14) featuring the dolabellane-type skeleton. Structural characterization of these compounds was accomplished through an integrated analytical strategy combining NMR spectroscopy and HRESIMS. Absolute configurations were unambiguously assigned using ECD spectral simulation and DP4 + probability analysis. Preliminary pharmacological evaluation indicated that compounds 8 and 13 exhibited anti-inflammatory activity, while compounds 1–14 showed antithrombotic activity. This study reveals promising anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic potentials that warrant further investigation.
