“…Compound 1 had a molecular formula of C 35 H 44 O 7 as determined by high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESIMS). In the 1 H NMR spectrum, the characteristic signals at δ 14.30 (1H, s, 13-OH), 13.08 (1H, s, 7-OH), 6.79 (1H, s, H-8), 5.02 (2H, t, H-29), 4.84 (1H, t, H-21), 4.77 (1H, t, H-17), 3.86 (2H, s, H-33), 2.81 (3H, s, H-15), 2.52 (1H, d, H-16), 2.11 (3H, s, H-14), 1.58 (3H, s, H-31), 1.50 (3H, s, H-15), 1.36 (3H, s, H-34), 1.24 (3H, s, H-35) were clearly observed. Starting from these characteristic proton signals, the following key heteronuclear multiple bond correlations (HMBCs) of 13 spectrum of 1 presented a negative Cotton effect at 350 nm (Figure S1); thus the configuration of C-1 was considered to be S based on the empirical rule.…”
