We have employed density functional theory (DFT) protocols to calculate the NMR properties of vannusals, a class natural products whose structures been subject recent investigations. The originally assigned structure vannusal B was revised after long synthetic journey which generated series closely related diastereomers. In this work we show how DFT calculations based on functionals and basis sets designed for prediction spectra (M06/pcS-2 level theory) can be used reproduce observed...
