TLDR
The chemistry of the limonoids was reviewed in this series by Dreyer (84); a more recent review is by Connolly, Overton and Polonsky (73), and taxonomic aspects have been reviewed recently by the present author.Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to review the chemistry of the limonoids isolated from plants of the natural order Meliaceae; limonoids from the Rutaceae and Cneoraceae are not included. The chemistry of the limonoids was last reviewed in this series by Dreyer (84); a more recent review is by Connolly, Overton and Polonsky (73). Taxonomic aspects have been reviewed recently by the present author (199), and chemistry and phyto-chemistry have been discussed at a recent meeting (81). The present article sets out to review advances in limonoid chemistry since the last review in this series (84); the tables however are intended to be comprehensive.read more
