T. Ukena et al., Structure elucidation of ostreocin D, a palytoxin analog isolated from thedinoflagellate Ostreopsis siamensis, BIOS BIOT B, 65(11), 2001, pp. 2585-2588
The structure of ostreocin D, a palytoxin analog isolated from the marine d
inoflagellate Ostreopsis siamensis, was found to be 42-hydroxy-3,26-didemet
hyl-19,44-dideoxypalytoxin by detailed 2D NMR analyses of intact ostreocin
D and its ozonolysis products. Partial stereochemical assignments were done
. This result indicates that the dinoflagellate O. siamensis is one of the
biogenetic origins of palytoxin.
