An Acetylenic Lipid from the New Zealand Ascidian Pseudodistoma cereum: Exemplification of an Improved Workflow for Determination of Absolute Configuration of Long-Chain 2-Amino-3-alkanols.

An acetylenic 2-amino-3-alcohol, distaminolyne B (2), isolated from the New Zealand ascidian Pseudodistoma cereum, is reported. The isolation and structure elucidation of 2 and assignment of 2S,3S absolute configuration (AC) using the exciton coupled circular dichroism technique are described. Using a methodologically facile workflow, the same AC was also established by analysis of specific rotation, terminal methyl C-1 δC chemical shift, and NH δH and J values of the N,O-diacetate derivative.
