Abstract

The Ohrui-Akasaka method is the only one methodology to solve the intrinsic problem of diastereomer method. The Ohrui-Akasaka ester discriminates an asymmetric center remote from up to 24 carbons. The gauche effect combined with CH-π interaction of the ester sets anthracene ring close to acyl side chain. The distinctive conformation provides a chiral field to a remote asymmetric center. This review describes the examples of the determination of the absolute configuration of the natural products, leustroducsin B, S 365 A and plakoside A, by using the Ohrui-Akasaka method.
