Chromatographic investigation of an acetone extract of the octocoral Xenia puerto‐galerae afforded three new cadinene sesquiterpenes; 8‐ epi ‐xenitorin A ( 1 ), 10‐ epi ‐xenitorin C ( 2 ), and 7‐isopropenyl‐4,10‐dimethyl‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydronaphthalene ( 3 ), in addition to four known cadinene analogs ( 4 , 11–13 ) and six xenicanes ( 5–10 ). The structures were elucidated through spectroscopic analysis, especially 2D NMR. A biogenetic pathway of 1–3 and analogs was proposed.
