What is The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Biology (Volume 69) (The Alkaloids, Volume 69) about?

The diterpenoid alkaloids, with an intriguing chemistry and numerous varied bioactivities, constitute the largest and most complicated group of terpenoid alkaloids. Among them, the C19-diterpenoid alkaloids have attracted extensive and lasting attention from researchers. This chapter with 1075 references systematically summarizes the past 30 years of studies on the C19-diterpenoid alkaloids, covering the classification and distribution, biogenesis and biosynthesis, applications in the phytochemotaxonomy of Chinese Aconitum L., spectral properties (1H and 13C NMR, MS), X-ray crystallographic analysis, chemical reactions and chemical conversions (as a continuation of Volume 42 of this treatise), and pharmacological activity of this important group of alkaloids. This review on the C19-diterpenoid alkaloids, in combination with two previous reviews in this treatise (C20-diterpenoid alkaloids, Volume 59, and C18-diterpenoid alkaloids, Volume 67), will present readers with a complete and updated profile of the diterpenoid alkaloids. The only exception is the description of the total syntheses of the diterpenoid alkaloids, which will be summarized in a subsequent individual chapter.
