The isolation and structure elucidation of puna'auic acid, an allenic fatty acid isolated from a marine cyanobacterium, is described. All configurations were first assessed through molecular modeling of NMR and ECD spectra and then confirmed through a straightforward enantioselective total synthesis of puna'auic acid featuring a key reductive...

Re-investigation of the chemical composition of the annual plant Mitracarpus scaber Zucc. led to the identification of clarinoside, a new pentalogin derivative containing a rare quinovose moiety, and the known compound harounoside. While the planar structure was fully determined using tandem mass spectrometry (MS) and quantum mechanics (QM)...
