The structural elucidation of palytoxin has involved some complicated and difficult problems because it is a non-crystalline, water soluble, unstable and novel molecule. 2 However, we could ultimately elucidate its total structure by
Tetrodotoxin is a potent neurotoxin, for which we planned a chemical
Some time ago one of us demonstrated"' by synthesis that structure A, assigned to nardostachone3, a sesquiterpenoid ketone found in Indian ipikenard oil, was untenable. We proposed 2 as a possible alternative,
Recently we proposed (1) new structures of rugulosin (I), a pigment of enicillium rugulosum Thorn and some other fungi, luteoskyrin (II) and rubroskyrin (III), the pigments of p,. islandicum Sopp. The evidence for the structural formulae was provided mostly by the NMR spectral analysis of these comp
