The absolute configurations of the residues constituting phomalide (1) were determined on the products resulting from acidic hydrolysis. The configurations of the amino acids Val and Leu were determined as (S) and (R), respectively, by chiral GC analysis (Chirasil-Val capillary column), employing N-trifluoroacetyl (TFA) amino acid methyl ester derivatives. The configurations of the hydroxy acids O-Phe and O-Leu were determined as (S) by 1H NMR of the Mosher's esters of the isopropyl ester derivatives. The method described allowed for the unambiguous assignment of the absolute configuration of the α-amino and α-hydroxy acid residues composing phomalide (1). Keywords: absolute configuration, depsipeptide, Mosher's ester.

The antifungal antibiotic pisolithin B (p-hydroxymandelic acid, 2-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-2-hydroxyethanoic acid, 1a) was shown to have the absolute (R) configuration. The stereochemistry was established via comparison of its optical rotation to that of its synthetic (R) and (S) enantiomers. The synthetic samples were prepared by the stereospecific reduction of the prochiral α-keto acid, p-hydroxybenzoylformic acid (2-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxoethanoic acid, 2a), with (R) or (S)-2,2′-dihydroxy-1,1′-binaphthyl lithium aluminum hydride (BINAL-H). The absolute configuration and enantiomeric purity of both products were determined using the 1H NMR of their isobutyl esters in the presence of the chiral solvating agent (R)-(−)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(9-anthryl)ethanol. Key words: pisolithin B, p-hydroxymandelic acid, antifungal, absolute configuration.

The preparation and separation into diastereomers of tbutyl-phenyl-phosphinic acid (—)-menthyl ester (1a) is reported. The diastereomeric purity as well as the absolute configuration at phosphorus of 1 a can be deduced from the detailed analysis of the 1H NMR spectra of samples of 1a differing in their diastereomer ratios.

A study has been made of the 1H NMR spectra of peracetylated β-glucopyranosides and α-arabinopyranosides obtained by reaction of D- and L-glucoses, and L- and D-arabinoses with either ( R)- or ( S)-2-octanols. The obtained and literature data show that 1H NMR spectra may be used to determine the absolute configuration of the aglycone moieties of some alicyclic glycosides without the need to synthesize derivatives with chiral reagents, as long as the absolute configuration of their monosaccharide moiety is known or vice versa. Spectra of marine steroid glycosides and their acetates containing glycosylated side chains as alicyclic fragments were also examined. It was shown that analysis of 1H NMR spectra for the determination of the absolute configuration is more applicable in the cases when glycosides have the same substitution in the D-ring of the aglycone moiety.

Racemates of (η3-allyl)tricarbonyliron lactone complex Fe(CO)3{η1:η3-C(O)XCH2CHCMeCH2} 1a (X = O) and (η3-allyl)tricarbonyliron lactam complex 2a (X = NMe) are resolved on a preparative scale by HPLC on cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenyl)carbamate/silica gel RP-8 and the absolute configuration of (-)-2a is determined by X-ray crystal structure analysis.
