Asymmetric total synthesis of complex marine natural products.
Among nature's ecosystems, the marine environment has been an extremely rich source of structurally complex and biologically active molecules. This review aims to cover the recent developments in the synthesis of marine natural products, also reflecting the trend of their increased use to address biological questions. The examples chosen should be viewed as representative of the different structural motifs on the one hand and the strategies and stimuli for their synthesis on the other.
