Introduction into natural products, Classification of metabolites

Secondary metabolites of plants: Alkaloids I: introduction, basic classification, characterization and chemical properties of alkaloids

Secondary metabolites of plants: Alkaloids II – biosynthesis and biological activity

Secondary metabolites of plants: Alkaloids III - biosynthesis and biological activity

Secondary metabolites of plants: Alkaloids IV - biosynthesis and biological activity

Further groups of secondary metabolites from plants (glucosinolates, cyanogenic glycosides, betalaines, sulfur compounds etc.)

Secondary metabolites of plants: Polyketides: aliphatic (fats, oils, waxes), aromatic (anthraquinone and dianthrone derivatives). Phloroglucinol derivatives. Cannabinoids.

Secondary metabolites of plants: Shikimates: biogenesis, classification: phenylpropanoids, lignans, coumarins, benzoic acid derivatives, simple phenols, simple naphthoquinones
