Briarane Diterpenoids Isolated from Octocorals between 2014 and 2016

Abstract: The structures, names, bioactivities, and references of 124 briarane-type natural products, including 66 new metabolites, isolated between 2014 and 2016 are summarized in this review article. All of the briarane diterpenoids mentioned in this review were isolated from octocorals, mainly from Briareum violacea, Dichotella gemmacea, Ellisella dollfusi, Junceella fragilis, Junceella gemmacea, and Pennatula aculeata. Some of these compounds exhibited potential biomedical activities, including anti-inflammatory act… Show more

“…Octocorals of the genus Briareum (family Briareidae) [1][2][3][4] are proven to be the most important source to produce briarane-type diterpenoids [5]. The compounds of this type are only found in marine invertebrates, particularly in octocorals and demonstrated a wide spectrum of bioactivities, such as anti-inflammatory activity [6] and cytotoxicity [7].…”

“…Briarane-type and the related cembranoid-based diterpenoids are a unique family of coral-derived natural products, whose scaffolds are characterized by the presence of a highly oxidized γ-lactone-bearing bicyclo [8.4.0] ring system. [1][2][3][4][5] These extraordinary secondary metabolites are exclusively derived from gorgonian corals, conducting them to be the chemotaxonomic markers for the orders of Gorgonacea and Alcyonacea. Biogenetically, briarane analogues are suggested to be originated from host corals rather than the endophytic microorganisms, 6,7 while they are supposed to be generated through 3,8-cyclization of cembranoids.…”

“…Due to the structural novelty and complex, chemists continue to engage in the discovery of the chemical diversity, with which a profile of more than 600 briarane-based derivatives has been isolated to date, and the numbers of new entities increasingly developed in recent years. 5,6 Ecologically, briarane diterpenoids exhibited antifouling effects against the larval settlement of barnacle, antibiotic, and insecticide activities. 10,11 Based on the chemoecological effects of briaranes such as antifouling activities, it is expected that briaranes may possess antivirus activity.…”

“…Briarane-type diterpenoids represent one of the most common natural product families to be isolated from gorgonian octocorals, with over 700 briarane diterpenoids characterized [28]. The biosynthetic origin of this skeleton was proposed as the result of cyclization between C3 and C8 of a cembrane skeleton, another widely distributed diterpene scaffold in marine gorgonian species, followed by further oxidative processing [29].…”
