Two new terpenoids, capillosanol (1) and chabranol (2), possessing unprecedented terpenoid skeletons, were isolated from the soft corals Sinularia capillosa and Nephthea chabroli, respectively. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic analyses. The cytotoxicities of these compounds were tested in vitro.
