M. Sasaki et al., SYNTHETIC APPROACH TOWARD COMPLETE STRUCTURE DETERMINATION OF MAITOTOXIN - STEREOCHEMICAL ASSIGNMENT OF THE C63-C68 ACYCLIC LINKAGE, Tetrahedron letters, 36(49), 1995, pp. 9007-9010
The relative configuration of carbons within the C63-C68 acyclic linka
ge of mairotoxin (MTX) was assigned by synthesis of stereodefined mode
l compounds (1a-1d) and their comparison with MTX in H-1 and C-13 NMR
spectra.
