Synthetic Aspects of Iridoid Chemistry

  • Chapter

Abstract

The aim of the present review is to cover developments in the chemistry of iridoids and related compounds during the last decade. In order to be able to give a broad, but still comprehensive presentation of this vast area some limitations to the subject were necessary. Accordingly, the chemotaxonomic importance and biosynthesis studies of iridoids will be omitted from the present survey since these subjects have been treated in contemporary reviews(1-4).Similarly, biological activity(5)and ecological aspects of iridoids(6, 7)will not be treated in detail here. A more historical introduction to the chemistry of iridoids has already been given(8)and in addition a specialized report on the progress of synthetic iridoid chemistry has appeared(9).Here, it is rather intended to provide the reader with an overview of the types of chemical reactions that have recently been applied to iridoids and to present a collection of synthetic possibilities which should give some perspectives for future work in this field.
