Joachim Podlech Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Institute of Organic Chemistry, KaiserstraĂźe 12, 76131 Karlsruhe, Germany 10.3762/bjoc.20.187 Abstract In this overview, naturally occurring resorcyliclactones biosynthetically derived from alternariol and almost exclusively produced by
interesting biological activities.
Keywords: biosynthesis; fungal metabolites; polyketides; resorcyliclactones; total synthesis; Introduction
Alternariol and some of its derivatives are ubiquitous as fungal metabolites present in infested plants and in food and feed, but similarly in soil, in wallpapers
. Derivatives formed through metabolization in the human body (or in animals) are only covered if the respective metabolites were similarly identified as natural products. A thorough survey of the literature revealed (at now) 127 natural products to be classified as natural resorcyliclactones derived from
