Studies in Natural Products Chemistry

This volume presents frontier reviews. It is an important element of Natural Products Chemistry, which is known on the topic.

. The first seven reviews cover a recent development in the field of bioactive marine natural products.
. Additional coverage includes Novel Domino reactions; medicinal plants and phytochemicals; recent developments in bioactive natural peptides; the chemistry and pharmacology of natural cyclic lipopeptides; and the biological activities of Salvia .
. The text includes a comprehensive review of biologically active compounds of semi-metals such as boron, silicon, arsenic, selenium and tellurium.
