Solving the puzzle : The correct structure and configuration of the natural product gephyronic acid has been determined by NMR analysis and correlation with synthetic reference compounds, as well as with myriaporone 4 and tedanolide. Gephyronic acid, isolated from culture supernatants of Archangium gephyra , displays intriguing antibiotic activity.
