Structural accuracy

edit

I've seen several references that suggest that the structure needs revising to match http://www.chemspider.com/Chemical-Structure.9867673.html (note that this differs by having a free OH at carbon 15) eg. the graphical abstract: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/ipdf/10.1021/jo400260m

This is indeed correct. Carbon15 should bear a hydroxyl, not a methoxy. Unfortunately, the ChemSpider entry displays the incorrect structure, as does the PubChem entry. This also makes the molecular weight inaccurate. The corresponding CAS entry in SciFinder is correct. Harmonslide (talk) 17:07, 13 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
I've updated the structure with the correct one and will be filling out the Chembox.Harmonslide (talk) 17:29, 13 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Reference issues

edit

The 2004 reference was for a ChemInform abstract rather than the primary citation and was thus misleading--it's been corrected to reflect the actual citation. Harmonslide (talk) 17:07, 13 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

The two citation formats have been made consistent with each other. Harmonslide (talk) 17:07, 13 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
