Natural products chemistry -- the chemistry of metabolite products
of plants, animals and microorganisms -- is involved in the
investigation of biological phenomena ranging from drug mechanisms
to gametophytes and receptors and drug metabolism in the human body
to protein and enzyme chemistry. Introduction to Natural Products
Chemistry has collected the most important research results of
natural product chemistry in China. It overviews the basic
principles of isolation, structure, and characteristics of natural
products and illustrates current research techniques of structure
elucidation with real-life examples of wet chemistry and
spectroscopic analyses (UV, IR, MS and NMR, especially 2d-NMR, HMBC
and HMQC), bioactivity, biosynthesis, and chemical synthesis.
Specifically, this book covers: * Extraction and isolation of
natural products * Chemistry of fungal products * Alkaloids,
sesquiterpenoids, diterpenes and saponins * Amino acids and
peptides * Flavonoids, anthraquinones, coumarins and lignansa *
Marine natural products * Structural modification of active
principles from traditional * Chinese medicine * Chemical synthesis
of natural products Although natural products chemistry has
produced enormous results and made great contributions to human
health, industry, and agriculture, only a fraction of natural
resources have been rigorously studied. Chinese natural products
are a gold mine for further exploration with modern technology and
methods. This book represents the continuing collaboration between
the fields of natural products chemistry, medicine, biology, and
agriculture which will continue to discover and implement novel
chemical products from natural sources.
