Abstract

The synthesis of the natural polyarsenical Arsenicin A and its crystal structure are described. The molecule has the adamantane-type structure of arsenic trioxide in which three of the oxygen atoms have been replaced by methylene groups to generate four arsenic stereocenters of the same configuration in each enantiomer of the racemate.
