Seven new β-caryophyllene-derived terpenoids (1-7) were isolated from EtOAc extracts of the Formosan soft coral Sinularia gibberosa. The structures of compounds 1-7 were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses and by comparison with the spectral data of related metabolites. Cytotoxicity evaluation of the above metabolites towards a limited panel of cancer cell lines also will be described.
