Studies on Secondary Metabolites from Syzygium Aromaticum Linn. And Chemical Modification of Some Bioactive Indole Alkaloids

Abstract

The work compiled in the present dissertation consists of two parts, ‘‘Studies on secondary metabolites from Syzygium aromaticum Linn.’’ has been describe in part A, while part B describes the ‘‘Chemical modification of some bioactive indole alkaloids.’’ A review of the biosynthesis of triterpenoids (α-amyrin and β-amyrin) and phenyl propanoid (eugenol) is also included.
