Five new decalin derivatives (1-5), together with two known compounds (6 and 7), were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of red yeast rice. Their structures were elucidated by means of NMR and mass spectroscopic analyses. Monascusic lactone A (1)

A modification of the CHARMM36 lipid force field (C36) for cholesterol, henceforth, called C36c, is reported. A fused ring compound, decalin, was used to model the steroid section of cholesterol. For decalin, C36 inaccurately predicts the heat of vaporization (~10
