Abstract
Covering: up to 2025Natural product-based research encompasses the discovery, structure elucidation, biosynthesis, synthesis, and application of naturally occurring secondary metabolites. Securingine alkaloids, isolated from Flueggea suffruticosa, have emerged as valuable molecular frameworks for exploring various aspects of natural product research due to their distinct chemical structures, characterized by unique oxidation and rearrangement patterns. Herein, we provide a comprehensive account of our journey in developing novel synthetic strategies and tactics for accessing all known and even unknown securingines and investigating the potential application of securingine B as a novel class of natural product-based molecular photoswitches.
期刊介绍:
Natural Product Reports (NPR) serves as a pivotal critical review journal propelling advancements in all facets of natural products research, encompassing isolation, structural and stereochemical determination, biosynthesis, biological activity, and synthesis.
With a broad scope, NPR extends its influence into the wider bioinorganic, bioorganic, and chemical biology communities. Covering areas such as enzymology, nucleic acids, genetics, chemical ecology, carbohydrates, primary and secondary metabolism, and analytical techniques, the journal provides insightful articles focusing on key developments shaping the field, rather than offering exhaustive overviews of all results.
NPR encourages authors to infuse their perspectives on developments, trends, and future directions, fostering a dynamic exchange of ideas within the natural products research community.
