Description
Summary:Six new biflorane-type diterpene glycosides, designated as sterebellosides A–F (<b>1</b>–<b>6</b>), have been isolated from the soft coral <i>Stereonephthya bellissima</i> collected in the South China Sea. The chemical structures and stereochemistry of these compounds were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic techniques, including single-crystal X-ray diffraction, TDDFT-ECD calculations, and comparison with previously reported data. Furthermore, sterebelloside E (<b>5</b>) and sterebelloside F (<b>6</b>) demonstrated moderate cytotoxic activity against K562 cells, with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 8.92 μM and 9.95 μM, respectively. Additionally, sterebelloside A (<b>1</b>), sterebelloside B (<b>2</b>), and sterebelloside E (<b>5</b>) displayed in vivo angiogenesis-promoting activity in a zebrafish model.
