Abstrakt: Two new oxygenated terpenes ( 1 and 2 ) have been characterized from the Australian nudibranch Goniobranchus coi . Broadened 1 H NMR signals, together with the absence of individual carbon NMR signals, complicated analysis of 5,9-epoxydendrillolide A ( 1 ); increasing the temperature to 323 K revealed the missing NMR signals. Low-temperature 1 H NMR experiments provided an activation barrier of ∼15 kcal mol -1 and, together with DFT calculations, supported interconversion of a twist chair conformer with two different chair conformers. X-ray crystallographic analysis coupled with biosynthetic reasoning suggested a (5 R , 8 S , 9 R , 13 R , 14 R , 15 R , 16 R ) configuration. Ketone 2 demonstrated similar dynamic conformational processes to 1 .
