title: The structure of vacidin A, an aromatic heptaene macrolide antibiotic. I. Complete assignment of the 1H NMR spectrum and geometry of the polyene chromophore.
abstract: The constitution of vacidin A, a representative of the aromatic heptaene macrolide antibiotics was established on the basis of 13C and 1H-1H double quantum filtered correlated spectroscopy, rotating frame nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy, J-resolved 1H as well as 1H-13C correlation NMR spectra. Geometry of the polyene chromophore was determined as 22E,24E,26E,28Z,30Z,32E,34E.
