The isolation of '9-deacetoxyxenicin' [systematic name: (1R*,4aS*,7E,11aS*,1'R*,2'R*)-1-acetoxy-4-(1',2'-diacetoxy-4'-methylpent-3'-enyl)-7-methy1-11-methylene-1,4a,5,6,9,10,11,11a-octahydrocyclonona[c]pyran] (2) from Xenia crassa and a further cyclized diterpene (6) from Xenia viridis are described. The structure of (2) was derived from n.m.r. spectroscopic comparison with xenicin (1), whilst the structure of (6) was determined by a single-crystal X-ray analysis when spectroscopy failed to afford an unambiguous structure.

Three new diterpenes have been isolated from soft corals of the genus Efflatounaria (Coelenterata, Octocorallia, Alcyonacea, Xeniidae). The structure of the first compound (4) was elucidated on the basis of high-field 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy while that of the second metabolite (5) was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The third diterpene (6) was structurally related to (5), and its structure was confirmed by chemical transformation. All three diterpenes can be derived from xenicin-type precursors, by cleavage and recyclization.

.A novel sesquiterpene (1 Z,2R*,4R*,7S*,11S*)-3,3,7,11-tetramethyltricyclo[6.3.0.02,4]undec-1(8)-en-4-ol (3) was isolated from the soft coral Xenia novae-britanniae. Its structure was tentatively deduced by n.m.r. spectroscopy, and the structure with relative stereochemistry was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Investigation of a Xenia species afforded the known metabolite waixenicin -A previously isolated from Anthelia edmondsoni .

Abstract Crystals of K2Pt(CN)4Br2, K2Pt(CN)4I2 and K2Pt(CN)4Cl2 ·2H2O were grown, and their crystal structures have been determined from single crystal data. The structure of K2Pt(CN)4Cl2 has been determined and refined from X-ray powder data. All compounds crystallize monoclinicly (P21/c; Z = 2), and K2Pt(CN)4X2 with X = Cl, Br, I are isostructural. K2Pt(CN)4Cl2: a = 708.48(2); b = 903.28(3); c = 853.13(3) pm; β = 106.370(2)°; Rp = 0.064 (N(hkl) = 423). K2Pt(CN)4Br2: a = 716.0(1); b = 899.1(1); c = 867.9(1) pm; β = 106.85(1)°; R(F)N′ = 0.026 (N’(hkl) = 3757). K2Pt(CN)4I2: a = 724.8(1); b = 914.5(1); c = 892.1(1) pm; β = 107.56(1)°; R(F)N′ = 0.025 (N’(hkl) = 2197). K2Pt(CN)4Cl2 ·2H2O: a = 763.76(4); b = 1143.05(6); c = 789.06(4) pm; β = 105.18(1)°; R(F)N′ = 0.021 (N’(hkl) = 2281). Raman and infrared spectroscopy data are reported.

The title compound was made following a projected synthetic route to pentacyclic triterpenes. The key step in the route is the alkylative trapping of the enolate derived from the enol trimethylsilyl ether 8. The stereochemical consequence of this reaction is confirmed by a single crystal X-ray structure determination on 4, which although of no further utility in the projected synthesis, nevertheless served as a useful template for this determination. In this way, ongoing work in a parallel series of compounds rests on a firm stereochemical footing.
