Bioassay‐directed fractionation of the acetone extract of Clavularia inflata collected in Green Island has afforded two new dolabellane diterpenoids, designated as clavinflols A ( 4 ) and B ( 5 ) in addition to the reported (1 R *,12 R *)‐dolabella‐4(16),7,10‐triene‐3,13‐dione ( 1 ), stolonidiol ( 2 ) and stolonidiol monoacetate ( 3 ). The structures of compounds 4 and 5 were determined on the basis of 1D and 2D‐NMR techniques including COSY, HSQC, HMBC and NOESY experiments, and acetylation which yielded derivatives 6 and 7 , respectively. Pharmacological study revealed that compounds 1–3 and 5 exhibited cytotoxicity against human oral epidermoid carcinoma (KB) cells while compound 4 showed selective activity toward human Hepa cells.
