Abstract

The absolute configurations of the three unknown chiral centers in vinylamycin were predicted according to the structural comparison with microtermolide A and rakicidin A, and then total syntheses of vinylamycin were applied to determine the three unknown chiral centers as 14R, 15R, and 16S.
