What the paper reports
Researchers reported MicroED structures for nine chemically diverse natural products whose three-dimensional structures had remained unavailable. The work used microgram quantities and avoided the need to grow large single crystals. It supports MicroED as a practical route for difficult natural-product samples, although the selected examples do not define a universal success rate across all natural products.
Why this paper is included
Broadens the pharmaceutical-relevant compound range beyond common API standards and offers useful examples for scarce or difficult-to-crystallize natural products.
The interpretation above is analysis, not a conclusion attributed to the original source.
