Abstract

Marine derived dinoflagellates have become a rich source of structurally novel and pharmacologically active secondary metabolites. Some of the species of dinoflagellates also produce toxic compounds and are responsible for seafood poisoning. This class of marine toxin has attracted the attention of organic chemists due to their involvement in human intoxication and socioeconomic impact brought about by toxic effect of these toxins. ...
