This book introduces chemists to the range of structures of fungal metabolites and describes the progress in the elucidation of these structures from chemical degradation to spectroscopic analysis.
The aim of this book is to introduce research workers to a variety of methods that have been used to achieve these synthetic labelling objectives before exploring a particular method in detail.
This book will make fascinating reading for the chemist with an interest in gardening as well as the gardener with a general interest in the scientific processes involved in the garden.
Providing a general introduction to this fascinating subject, this book is aimed at those studying advanced undergraduate and postgraduate courses in medicinal chemistry.
This book will therefore be welcomed by lecturers and students of second-year chemistry courses.
