(A) Proposed biosynthesis of merochlorins A–D (14). X = oxygen or halogen. (B) Oak Ridge Thermal Ellipsoid Plot (ORTEP) representation of the X-ray structure of 3-acetyl-5-methyl-merochlorin A. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned based on the diffraction anisotropy of the chlorine atom of the derivatized metabolite.
