Abstract

The organic extract of Plocamium cruciferum gave a complex mixture of fatty acid methyl esters (26%), the tribromotrichloroalkene (12),(7%), n-heptadecane (0.4%), phytol(12%) and the unusual hydroxy bisnor-monoterpene (15) (43%). The absolute stereochemistry of the polyhalogenated alkene (12) was established by X-ray crystallography.
