Abstract
Zosteraphenols, two new tetracyclic diarylheptanoids were isolated from the seagrass Zostera marina. The rotameric equilibrium of the strained tetracyclic structures, involving a diastereomeric minor rotamer with opposite axial chirality, resulted in coalescent NMR spectra. Although the elusive minor rotamer was only characterized with 1H chemical shifts, the excellent agreement between experimental and DFT-calculated chemical shifts of both rotamers unequivocally supported this analysis. Absolute configuration of zosteraphenols was determined by DFT prediction of their ECD spectra.
