Lobophytum sarcophytoides is a soft coral known for two new cembrane-type diterpenoids, lobophytins and four new prostaglandins from a specimen.^[1]

Chemistry

SYSU-MS001, a specimen of L. sarcophytoides, was collected in the South China Sea. Biologists extracted the specimen and discovered two new cembrane-type diterpenoids, named lobophytins, as well as four new prostaglandins.^[1] Additionally, the chemical Sarcophytolin D has been taken from other specimens of the species. ^[2]
