Metabolites of microorganisms. 229. Absolute configuration of naphthomycin A determined by X-ray analysis and chemical degradation.

Abstract
The relative and absolute configurations of naphthomycin A [an antibiotic] were elucidated by an X-ray structural analysis of a methylation product, 25-O-methylnaphthomycin A iminomethyl ether. The absolute configuration was confirmed by degradation (O3, NaBH) to be (S)-butane-1,2,4-triol.
