description New technology has opened opportunities for research and exploration of deep-water ecosystems, highlighting deep-sea coral reefs as a rich source of novel bioactive natural products. During our ongoing investigation of the chemodiversity of the Irish deep sea and the soft coral <i>Anthothela grandiflora,</i> we report 12 unreported cadinene-like functionalized sesquiterpenes, anthoteibinenes F–Q. The metabolites were isolated using both bioassay- and <sup>1</sup>H NMR-guided approaches. One-/two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry were used for structure elucidation, while a combination of NOESY NMR experiments, GIAO NMR calculations coupled with DP4+ probabilities measures, and ECD comparisons were incorporated to propose relative and absolute configurations of the anthoteibinenes. The metabolites were screened against the Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), ESKAPE pathogens, five <i>Candida albicans</i> strains, and one strain of <i>C. auris</i>.
