Abstract
Covering: up to the end of 2023
Cephalotane diterpenoids are a unique class of natural products exclusive to the genus Cephalotaxus, featuring a rigid 7,6,5,6-fused tetracyclic architecture. The study of cephalotanes dates back to the 1970s, when harringtonolide (1), a Cephalotaxus troponoid with a peculiar norditerpenoid carbon skeleton, was first discovered. In recent years, prototype C20 diterpenoids proposed as cephalotane were disclosed, which triggered intense studies on this diterpenoid family. To date, a cumulative total of 105 cephalotane diterpenoids with great structural diversity and biological importance have been isolated. In addition, significant advances have been made in the field of total synthesis and biosynthesis of cephalotanes in recent years. This review provides a complete overview of the chemical structures, bioactivities, biosynthetic aspects, and completed total synthesis of all the isolated cephalotane diterpenoids, which will help guide future research on this class of compounds.
期刊介绍:
ACS Central Science publishes significant primary reports on research in chemistry and allied fields where chemical approaches are pivotal. As the first fully open-access journal by the American Chemical Society, it covers compelling and important contributions to the broad chemistry and scientific community. "Central science," a term popularized nearly 40 years ago, emphasizes chemistry's central role in connecting physical and life sciences, and fundamental sciences with applied disciplines like medicine and engineering. The journal focuses on exceptional quality articles, addressing advances in fundamental chemistry and interdisciplinary research.
