• When we discuss the terpenes we are most
interested in the carbon skeleton.

Alkaloids
Nitrogen containing, basic natural products
often have powerful biological activity
alkaloids are not as conveniently organized
by some common structural component.

Antiobiotics
There are many classes of antibiotics; four are listed
as major groups: b-lactams ( includes the penicillins);
tetracyclines (tetracycline); macrolides (erythromycin)
and peptides (gramacidin).
For the purposes of this course, we will be primarily
concerned with macrolide antibiotics
and highly-oxygenated compounds.
Practice Problem #1
• For each of the example terpenes given to
you, find the isoprene units that are contained
in the carbon skeleta.
