title: On the absolute configuration of matricin.
abstract: The assignment of the absolute configuration of matricin rests on indirect evidence. On the basis of synthetic, NMR and CD studies with its decomposition product, chamazulene carboxylic acid, we were able to firmly establish the accepted 3S,3aR,4S,9R,9aS,9bS configuration of matricin.
