Chemical studies of marine invertebrates—II : Terpenoids—LVIII Griseogenin, a new triterpenoid sapogenin of the sea cucumber halodeima grisea l.

Abstract Chemical degradation coupled with extensive physical measurements has lead to structure V for griseogenin. The correctness of this structure has been confirmed by correlation with the known sapogenin, 22,25-oxidoholothurinogenin (I).
