Abstract
Biotransformation of plants secondary compounds by the variety of organism sometimes afford novel and / or useful compounds. The ability of organism metabolizing those natural products and the metabolic fate of those in nature can also be revealed by this investigation. Lignans and neolignans are well known plants secondary compounds which are widely distributed in terrestrial plants, and have attracted much attention due to the varied biological activities. This review summarizes recent research in to field of biotransformation of lignans and neolignans.
Keywords: lignans, neolignans, biotransformation, eudesmin, magnolin, hydroxypinoresinol, yagabin, veraguensin, galbelgin, verrucosin

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
