???displayArticle.abstract???
Thirteen steroidal compounds including three new polyhydroxysteroids, (24R,25S)-24-methyl-5α-cholestane-3β,6α,8,15β,16β,26-hexaol, (22E,24R,25S)-24-methyl-5α-cholest-22-ene-3β,6α,8,15β,16β,26-hexaol and (22E,24R,25S)-24-methyl-5α-cholest-22-ene-3β,4β,6α,8,15β,16β,26-heptaol, have been isolated along with the previously known ten polyhydroxysteroids from the tropical starfish Asteropsis carinifera collected near the coast of Vietnam. The structures of new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (mainly 2D NMR and ESI-mass-spectrometry).
