✦ Synopsis
Two new 6-hydroximino-4-en-3-one steroids: (24R, 6E)-24-ethylcholest-6-hydroximino-4en-3-one (1) and (6E) cholest-6-hydroximino-4-en-3-one (2), accompanied by the known cholest-4-en-3-one wexe isolated from a mixttwe of two morphospecies of the sponge Cinachyrella (C. alloclada and C. apion). Use of spectroscopic methods (NMR and MS) was key to establish their structures which were eonfn'med by synthesis. Described in this report are the fwst hydroximino steroids derived from a natural source.
