22. A 1:1 mixture (0.3 mg) of PnTXs B/C was isolated from 21 kg of the viscera of Pinna muricata. PtTX A (20 μg) and PtTX B/C (8 μg as a 1:1 mixture) were isolated from 82 kg of the viscera of Pteria penguin.
23. 99 in ref 4: PnTXs B/C = 22 μg/kg; PtTX A = 100μg/kg; PtTXs B/C = 8 μg/kg).
24. The stereochemical homogeneity of PtTX A is discussed in a subsequent paper, see ref 23.
25. A total synthesis of PnTXs B and C from the Diels-Alder products 14a-iii and 14b-iii, respectively, will be reported elsewhere.
26. The building blocks dithiane 1 and vinyl iodide 2 were reported in ref 3. We adopted the reported synthesis for preparation of vinyl iodide 2. However, we have made substantial modifications on the synthesis of dithiane 1; for details, see Supporting Information.

44. We assumed, and indeed observed, that acid-promoted deprotection of the t-Bu ester requires much more forcing conditions, once the amino-protecting group is hydrolyzed.
