NOESY on neurotoxins: NMR and conformational assignments of picrotoxins.

Nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) gave full assignments of the 1H-NMR spectra of the picrotoxane neurotoxins tutin, hyenanchin, picrotoxinin and picrotin, as well as the solution conformations of these compounds, consistent with molecular modelling. Fully assigned 13C-NMR data are reported.
