Abstract:
21-Hydroxyoligomycin A (1) was isolated from Streptomyces cyaneogriseus ssp. noncyanogenus (LL-F28249) and fully characterized by NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The complete 1H and 13C NMR chemical shift assignments for 1 were made using 2D NMR experiments, and the chirality at C-21 was deduced to be R from a J-based configuration analysis. The absolute configuration at C-21 and at the other 18 chiral centers in the molecule were independently confirmed by anomalous dispersion measurements on a crystal of the chloroform methanol solvate of 21-hydroxyoligomycin A (1).

Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the unhybridized p...
