Pregna-1,4,20-trien-3-one, a cytotoxic marine steroid from the marine soft coral Nephthea sp.

The title compound, C(21)H(28)O, was isolated from the cytotoxic lipid extract of the Fidjian soft coral Nephthea sp. The steroid showed inhibitory activity to human colon adenocarcinoma SW480 cells (IC(50) = 2.5 µg ml(-1)). The mol-ecular structure indicates that the A ring is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.032 Å), the B and C rings adopt chair conformations and the five-membered D ring i...
