That elusive chiral pair : The chiral sequence of the nonribosomal, linear, 16‐mer peptide integramide A, an HIV‐1 integrase A inhibitor, has been fully elucidated. Total independent chemical syntheses of two diastereomers of integramide A ( L ‐Iva14‐ D ‐Iva15 and D ‐Iva14‐ L ‐Iva15) in the solution phase, combined with their HPLC and 1D‐ and 2D‐NMR analyses, provide unambiguous evidence that the natural inhibitor has a previously unassigned L ‐Iva14‐ D ‐Iva15 chiral pair.
