The Aplysiatoxins: Reactions with Acid and Oxidants

Y. Kato, P. J. Scheuer
1976 Pure and Applied Chemistry  
Under the influence of ethanolic acetic acid the aplysiatoxins rearrange with retention of all carbon atoms. An osmate of the anhydrotoxins can be rediced to a glycol which resists oxidative cleavage but loses water and rearranges with acid. Consideration of PMR and reactivity datalead to partialassignment of relative stereochemistry of the toxins.
