Abstract

There has been a long-term fruitful synergy between the study of organic chemistry and the quest for the identification of novel and potentially valuable products from nature (Barton and Nakanishi 1999). Following the isolation of such naturally derived agents, chemistry has provided the indispensable intellectual framework for structure elucidation. In the early days, these assignments were accomplished through the medium of classical degradative chemistry. The validity of chemistry-based structure deduction was extremely dependent on the powerful logic which unifies the basic reactions of organic chemistry and allows for organization and interpretation of reaction sequences.
