The structure determinations of new halogenated monoterpenes, isolated from collections of Plocamium hamatum J. Agardh , are reported. One collection of P. hamatum afforded (1R*,2R*,4S*,5R*,1′E)-1,2,4- trichloro-5-(2′-chloroethenyl)-1,5-dimethylcyclohexane (1) whose relative stereochemistry was determined by X-ray crystallography. Extensive use of two-dimensional carbon-hydrogen correlation experiments enabled unambiguous assignments of proton and carbon resonances to be made for this new compound. Complete carbon assignments for the related metabolite mertensene (2) are reported. A second collection of P. hamatum afforded three new halogenated monoterpenes. The relative and absolute stereochemistry of (2S,3E,5S,6S,7S)-1,5,7-tribromo-2,6,8-trichloro-2,6-dimethyloct-3-ene (3) was determined by n.m.r . and X-ray crystallography, while for (3R*,4S*,5E)-4,8-dibromo-3,7-dichloro-3,7-dimethylocta-1,5-diene (4) and (2R*,4S*,5R*,1*E)-4-bromo-2-chloro-5-(2′-chloroethenyl)-5-methyl-1-methylenecyclohexane (5), the structures and relative configurations were determined by n.m.r . spectroscopy.

Two isomeric 7,8-epoxycembra-3,11,15-trien-16,2-olides have been isolated from different species of the soft coral genus Efflatounaria. The structure of each was deduced spectroscopically , and the relative stereochemistry of one was determined by X-ray crystallography. The absolute stereochemistry of each cembranolide was obtained by chemical correlation with known compounds.

Determination of the structure of the [Tl2(phthalate)] by X-ray crystallography shows that there are six (TlO6) and five (TlO5) coordinate Tl atoms. The complex is a two-dimensional coordination polymer.

.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 .

Thiele’s acid has been resolved for the first time by diastereomeric salt formation with brucine. Determination of absolute stereochemistry was accomplished by X-ray crystallography of the corresponding diester. We anticipate that access to optically resolved Thiele’s acid will stimulate its use in a diverse range of applications requiring chiral molecular clefts.
