A Revision of the Stereochemistry of Lactucin
On the basis of circular dichroism measurements on lactucin, hydroxyachillin, and acetoxyachillin the stereochemistry of the C-5 hydrogen has been revised to the 5α configuration. The reasons for the former erroneous assignment are reexamined and the structures of several hexahydrolactucin derivatives are reinterpreted.
