吗啡是从鸦片中分离得到的天然产物.因吗啡及其类似物具有独特的结构和有效的生物活性,合成化学家对其合成研究产生了高度的兴趣.按合成吗啡及其类似物的时间顺序分类,对吗啡类生物碱的合成研究进展进行了综述.
The morphine alkaloids constitute a class of structurally related natural products isolated from opium poppy, Papaver somniferum. The synthesis of morphine and its derivatives has attracted the attention of many generations of synthetic chemists due to their highly challenging molecular architecture and biological activities. Progresses toward the synthesis of the morphine alkaloids are reviewed in terms of chronological order.
