myList = {{{-33.355 Degree, 278.265}, {-33.486 Degree,
     155.871}, {-60.650 Degree, 27.534}}, {{-38.418 Degree,

   Table[{myList[[k, i, 1]],
     myList[[k, i, 2]] (-1)/Sin[myList[[k, i, 1]]]},
    {i, Length[myList[[k]]]}],
   {k, Length[myList]}];

m2 = ((# /. {a_, b_?NumericQ} -> {a, -b*Csc[a]}) & /@ myList);

m3 = Map[{#[[1]], -#[[2]]*Csc[#[[1]]]} &, myList, {2}];

m1 === m2 === m3

True
