Structure and Chemistry

Hardbound. The present volume of Studies in Natural Products Chemistry which is the 19th in the series presents important research work carried out over a wide front of natural product chemistry. It includes the synthesis of dendrobatid alkaloids, aspidosperma and related alkaloids and some important natural products via aliphatic nitro derivatives, cannabinoids, brassinosteroids, quinocarcin and its related compounds, mannostatins and cyclophellitols and derivatives of grandiflorenic acid and some related diterpenes. The volume also presents marine cyclic halo ether compounds, oxidative ring transformation of 2-furylcarbinols and stereoselective synthesis of C-branched nucleoside analogues. The present work in the area of marine chemistry also includes reviews on bioactive marine macrolides, hormones in the red swamp crayfish. Work on novel polysaccharides from microorganisms and plants, the dereplication of plant-derived natural produc
