Studies in Natural Products Chemistry, Volume 73 covers the synthesis, testing and recording of medicinal properties of natural products, providing cutting-edge accounts of fascinating developments in the isolation, structure elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis and pharmacology of a diverse array of bioactive natural products. Natural products in the plant and animal kingdom offer a huge diversity of chemical structures that are the result of biosynthetic processes that have been modulated over millennia through genetic effects. With rapid developments in spectroscopic techniques and accompanying advances in high-throughput screening techniques, it has become possible to isolate and determine the structures and biological activity of natural products.

Hence, these new discoveries have created new avenues and applications for their use.
