J Nat Prod. 2003 Nov;66(11):1509-11. doi: 10.1021/np0302246.

Abstract

Three compounds containing moieties rarely encountered in nature, viz., 3-nonyloxirane-2 carboxylic acid methyl ester (1), 2-chlorododec-2-en-1-ol (2), and 2-chlorododec-2,11-dien-1-ol (3), were isolated from the red alga Gracilaria verrucosa, and their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods.
