Abstract

Theonezolides A-C (1-3) are cytotoxic 37-membered macrolides with a long side chain isolated from an Okinawan marine sponge Theonella sp. The relative stereochemistry of 1-3 was investigated by combination of NMR analysis including application of a JBCA method, a Universal NMR database, and a 13C-acetonide method. Furthermore, the absolute configurations at 14 chiral centers in 1-3 were found to be 19S, 22R, 24S, 28S, 44S, 45S, 47R, 49S, 53R, 55S, 57S, 59S, 60S, and 63S by application of a modified Mosher's method.
