A simple method to determine the relative stereochemistry of statine amino acids (gamma-amino-beta-hydroxyacids) by using H-1 NMR spectroscopy is described. Configurational assignment of statine units within complex natural products is possible without degradation or derivatization as the syn and anti diastereomers can be distinguished by using a combination of chemical shift and coupling constant information derived from the a-methylene ABX system. Seventy-three examples are provided, demonstrating the scope and limitations of the methodology. These examples range in complexity from simple statine units to cyclic depsipeptides, such as tamandarin B.
