title: Albocycline: structure determination by x-ray crystallography.
abstract: The structure and absolute configuration of the macrolide antibiotic albocycline (1a) has been determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis on the derived p-bromobenzoate (1b). The absolute configuration of albocycline is 4R, 7S, 12S, 13R.
