L. Toupet et al., DICHLOROLISSOCLIMIDE FROM LISSOCLINUM-VOELTZKOWI MICHAELSON (UROCHORDATA) - CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE AND ABSOLUTE STEREOCHEMISTRY, Journal of natural products, 59(12), 1996, pp. 1203-1204
The structures of the cytotoxic lissoclimides isolated from the New Ca
ledonian ascidian Lissoclinum voeltzkowi Michaelson were originally de
termined on the basis of spectroscopic methods. X-ray analysis has now
been performed to determine definitively the absolute stereochemistry
of dichlorolissoclimide, and as a result the original assignment of o
ne hydroxyl group must be inverted.
