Previous studies on the secondary metabolites of Formosan octocoral Isis hippuris were collected only at Green Island. In the course of our studies on secondary metabolites from marine organisms, the acetone-solubles of the Formosan octocoral Isis hippuris collected at Orchid Island has led to the isolation of eleven polyoxygenated steroids (1¡V11), along with two known compounds (12 and 13). The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of their spectroscopic and physical data, including NMR, IR, MS, etc. The cytotoxicity against of A-549 (human lung epithelial carcinoma), HT-29 (human colon adenocarcinoma), and P-388 (mouse lymphocytic leukemia) cells, and anti-HCMV (human cytomegalovirus) activity of metabolites 1¡V13 were evaluated. Compounds 12 and 13 displayed cytotoxicity against P-388 cell line with ED50 values of 3.2 and 3.6 £gg/mL, respectively. Compound 12 exhibited cytotoxicity against A-549 cell line with an ED50 value of 3.8 £gg/mL. Compound 8 exhibit inhibitory activity against HCMV, with EC50 values of 2.0 £gg/mL.
