Abstract

The unassigned configurations of a toxic metabolite to mammals extracted from Neosartorya fischeri (fischerin) in C19, C20, C21, and C22 are assigned as R, R, R, and S, respectively. In this assignment, the extensive ab initio calculations followed by chemical shift computations are performed. Computed chemical shifts are correlated to experimental ones in order to find the correct configuration shown here.
