The research team on Natural Products from De La Salle University-Dasmariñas has discovered a novel compound from an endemic Philippine nudibranch, Chromodoris cavitensis, which inhabits the coral reef system near Caylabne Bay in Temate, Cavite. Exhaustive analysis has revealed a complex structure as shown below which they aptly named as "Chromocavitenin". Initial tests revealed that this compound has potent anti- carcinogenic properties. Copy the structure and encircle and identify the 13 distinct functional groups that is present in chromocavitenin. (e Gideon A. Legaspi, 1/2/12)
