Calculated NMR as a tool for structural elucidation of jungianol and mutisianthol

Theoretical methods were used for the correct structure assignments of the natural products jungianol and mutisianthol. A three stage protocol for the calculation was used: a conformational search using molecular mechanics (MM3), a DFT (B3LYP) structure optimization and ab initio (HF/GIAO) or DFT (B3LYP/GIAO) calculation of magnetic properties.
