Accepting the proposal : The originally proposed structure of maitotoxin has recently come under scrutiny based on biosynthetic and computational considerations. A newly synthesized ring framework corresponding to the GHIJK ring domain (see structure) of the molecule provided, through 13 C NMR spectroscopic comparisons, strong experimental support for the originally proposed structure.
