A DP4 protocol has been successfully utilized to establish the true structure of the natural product cyclocinamide A, a flexible cyclic peptide with four isolated stereocenters. Benchmarking the necessary level of theory required to successfully predict the NMR spectra of three previously synthesized isomers of cyclocinamide A led to the prediction of the natural stereochemistry as 4 S, 7 R, 11 R, 14 S, which has been confirmed by total synthesis.
