A 68 μg amount of an acyclic polyketide, named beru'amide, was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium Okeania sp. Beru'amide contains six unique moieties in its relatively small skeleton. By applying several cutting-edge techniques, including DFT-based chemical shift calculations, we achieved the structure determination and the total synthesis of this highly functionalized scarce natural product. Furthermore, beru'amide was shown to have strong antitrypanosomal activity.
