โœฆ Synopsis

A new drimane sesquiterpene, hodgsonal (1), has been isolated from the mantle extract of the Antarctic opisthobranch mollusc Bathydoris hodgsoni. The structure of 1, including the absolute stereochemistry, has been elucidated by spectroscopic and chemical methods.The localization of 1 in the mantle and the analogies with related drimane compounds may indicate a defensive role against predators.

Two unprecedented nor-sesquiterpenes, austrodoral (4) and its oxidised derivative austrodoric acid (5), have been isolated from the skin of the marine dorid Austrodoris kerguelenensis, collected in Antarctica. The structures and the relative stereochemistry were elucidated on the basis of spectrosco
