Bioassay-guided purification of methanol extract of the soft coral Cladiella krempfi (Octocorallia: Alcynocea) yielded a novel eunicellin-type diterpenoid, (-)-6 alpha-hydroxy polyanthellin A (1), active against the cyprids of the fouling barnacle, Balanus amphitrite (EC50 9.02 mu g/mL; LC50 36 mu g/mL; and therapeutic ratio = 4). The structure of compound 1 was determined from its spectral data, including IR, NMR (1D and 2D NMR), and mass spectra.
