Scleroderolide, a yellow pigment produced by the Scleroderris canker fungus Gremmeniellaabietina (Lagerb.) Morelet, is shown to possess structure 1. The structure was determined by an X-ray crystallographic study of the racemic monoacetate 1a. The crystal of 1a belongs to the triclinic system space group, P1, the R-factor converged to 0.047 for the 1957 observed reflections. Scleroderolide occurs mainly as the levorotatory enantiomer (S configuration at C-2′) although on one occasion it was obtained in partially racemic form. The absolute stereochemistry of the levorotatory form was determined by transformation of (−)-sclerodione (5) of known absolute configuration into (−)-scleroderolide. The absolute configuration of (−)-sclerodione was established by correlation with (−)-sclerodin (3). The diacetyl derivative of scleroderolide (1b) shows interesting temperature dependent nuclear magnetic resonance spectral properties due to restricted rotation of the C-4 O-acetyl group. Oxidation of the red pigment sclerodione (5) with m-chloroperbenzoic acid provides both sclerodin (3) and scleroderolide (1). Scleroderolide (1) is the first natural product to be reported that contains a phenylglyoxylate lactone functionality.

The 8aR absolute stereochemistry of Wieland-Miescher ketone (-)-I was established by the X-ray structure analysis of its bis(4-bromobenzoate) derivatives (1R,6R,8aR)-(+)-IV and (1R,6S,8aR)-(-)-V. The absolute configuration of (-)-I was corroborated further by the application of the CD exciton chirality method to bis(4-bromobenzoates) (+)-IV and (-)-V.

3,4,6-Tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal reacted with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of dicobalt octacarbonyl to yield a mixture of two epimeric anhydrodeoxyheptitols, namely, 4,5,7-tri-O-acetyl-2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-D-manno-heptitol (I) and 4,5,7-tri-O-acetyl-2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-D-gluco-heptitol (II). De-O-acetylation of the mixture, followed by chromatographic separation, yielded crystalline 2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-D-manno-heptitol (III) and 2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-D-gluco-heptitol (IV). Reaction of the mixture of heptitols (I) and (II) with p-bromobenzenesulfonyl chloride, followed by fractional crystallization of the brosylates, gave pure 4,5,7-tri-O-acetyl-2,6-anhydro-1-O-(p-bromophenylsulfonyl)-3-deoxy-D-gluco-heptitol (VII). The absolute configuration of (VII) has been previously established by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The absolute configuration of (III) was established by correlation with that of (VII). The conversion of compound (II) into various derivatives is described.Reaction of 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal with carbon monoxide and deuterium afforded 2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-D-manno-heptitol-1,1,3-2H3 (XIII) and 2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-D-gluco-heptitol-1,1,3-2H3 (XIV). Examination of the nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra of the normal and deuterated anhydrodeoxyheptitols confirmed the structural assignments and showed that cis addition to the double bond took place to give (XIV).Comparison of the exchange reaction of sodium iodide with 4,5,7-tri-O-acetyl-2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-1-O-tosyl-D-gluco-heptitol (VIII) and with 4,5,7-tri-O-acetyl-2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-1-O-tosyl-D-manno-heptitol (XV) revealed that the equatorial primary tosyloxy group of (VIII) was exchanged by iodine twice as readily as the axial primary tosyloxy group of (XV).

The absolute configuration of the atropisomeric (Z)-3-(5-methyl-2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)-1,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-one was evaluated to be R for the dextrorotatory and S for the laevorotatory enantiomers. The assignment is based on their two-step syntheses via atropodiastereoisomeric carbamates prepared from the corresponding atropodiastereoisomeric alcohols with (R)-(+)-α-phenylethyl isocyanate and by a complete X-ray space analysis of the quaternary triiodide obtained from the (R)-(+)-enantiomer. CD spectra and PM3 calculated heats of formation for selected compounds are discussed in relation to the found molecular configurations.

The X-ray crystal structures have been determined for three alkaloids isolated from the bark of the rainforest tree Galbulimima belgraveana, namely himbosine, himandrine, and himgaline, thereby allowing the absolute configuration to be established for these three compounds and 15 further alkaloids from this source.

Lachnellulone, an antifungal metabolite produced by Lachnellula fuscosanguinea (Rehm) Dennis is shown to possess structure 8. The structure was determined by consideration of the ultraviolet, infrared, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectra of 8 and its derivatives and was confirmed by an X-ray crystallographic study of lachnellulone p-nitrobenzoate. In solution lachnellulone undergoes facile isomerization to isolachnellulone (9a), which explains the observed mutarotation of 8. The 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of lachnellulone and the related lachnelluloic acid (1) are discussed in some detail. The absolute configuration of lachnellulone has not been determined.

The structures of 12 new polyketide metabolites produced in liquid cultures of the fungus Arthropsistruncata have been determined by a combination of chemical and spectroscopic methods. Four of these metabolites possess an unusual 2-oxaspiro[4.5]decane skeleton, and the structure assigned to one of these metabolites 20 has been confirmed by an X-ray crystallographic study of the dibenzoyl derivative 21. The absolute stereochemistry of these compounds has been predicted by application of the Harada–Nakanishi dibenzoate rule to arthropsolide D tribenzoate (32).

From the endemic Cuban species Rauvolfia salicifolia GRISEB nine alkaloids were isolated of which the following seven had been already described: (+)-ajmalidine (I), (-)-reserpiline (II), (-)-isoreserpiline (III), (-)-isocarapanaubine (IV), (-)-ajmalicine (V), (+)-vellosimine (VI), and (+)-yohimbine (VII). The structure of (-)-raucubaine (VIII) had been previously determined by X-ray diffraction and the structure of the alkaloid (-)-raucubainine (IX) was suggested on the basis of its conversion to (-)-raucubaine (VIII). The absolute configuration of (-)-raucubaine and (-)-raucubainine was elucidated by CD spectroscopy.

The synthesis of the title compounds has been described recently. It was anticipated that the product would be a diastereomeric mixture. Surprisingly, only one isomer was obtained. The present work is an attempt to find the conformationnal properties accounting for those observations. X-ray structure determination of 3R-[p-hydroxybenzyl]-6-carbethoxy-2-oxopiperazine shows that the molecule adopts a folded conformation and that the absolute configuration at C6 is [R]. Investigation in solution using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance shows the existence of three conformers and discusses the relative populations. Those findings are also relevant in terms of the activity of such compounds at the opiate receptor level.
