I believe the chemical structure is incorrect. John BLunt, a natural products expert, has confirmed this. The correct structure is available on ChemSPider here: http://www.chemspider.com/Chemical-Structure.9280425.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChemSpiderMan (talk • contribs) 14:49, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I too confirmed that the picture is uncorrect. Why didn't anybody remove it in 3 years? It took me a week to analyse why I mess up the chirality of this toxine when I suddenly realised that the problem was not with my naming skills rather than wiki's picture. There seems to be no good high-res alternatives out there. Please do not put back the wrong picture.

IUPAC name and structure do not match.

I added the "dispute" sign on top of the article, because the IUPAC name does not match with the structure (R- and S- configurations). Chemspider's structure matches with the name, but current wiki's photo comes from a reputable source too. Where's the bug? P.S. By profession I am not a chemist, just somebody who is interested. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Osmoregulator (talk • contribs) 14:04, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have replaced the dispute sign with a citation needed because it looked like the whole article was disuputed. Christian75 (talk) 13:20, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that palytoxin has 64 stereocenters, not 71, just using a simple google search. - buzz

Potential medical use?

An ever-increasing number of "highly toxic chemicals" has been shown to have legitimate medical uses in pure form and in managed and controlled doses. Is there any such for this guy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.166.227.224 (talk) 06:01, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Question about structure

Is it supposed to be in a straight line, and was wrapped for simplicity purposes? if so this should be mentioned directly below the picture
