Abstract
The solution structure of 5-desacetylaltohyrtin A, an extremely cytotoxic m acrolide isolated from a marine sponge, was analyzed by NMR and restrained molecular dynamics. The average value of pairwise RMSD for the backbone (fr om C-1 to C-43) Of the 10 lowest energy structures was 0.50+/-0.22 Angstrom . The stereostructure of C-14-C-16 in 5-desacetylaltohyrtin A was further v erified by restrained molecular dynamic calculation using incorrect chiral restraints. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
