Monoterpenes, comprising hydrocarbons, are the largest class of plant secondary metabolites and are commonly found in essential oils. Monoterpenes and their derivatives are key ingredients in the design and production of new biologically active compounds. This review focuses on selected aliphatic, monocyclic, and bicyclic monoterpenes like geraniol, thymol, myrtenal, pinene, camphor, borneol, and their modified structures. The compounds in question play a pivotal role in biological and medical applications. The review also discusses anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anticonvulsant, analgesic, antiviral, anticancer, antituberculosis, and antioxidant biological activities exhibited by monoterpenes and their derivatives. Particular attention is paid to the link between biological activity and the effect of structural modification of monoterpenes and monoterpenoids, as well as the introduction of various functionalized moieties into the molecules in question.

: Natural products have remarkable structural diversity and biological characteristics, providing researchers with more possibilities to develop novel drugs for disease therapeutics. Andrographolide, an ent-labdane diterpenoid from traditional Chinese medicines, Andrographis paniculata, exhibits a broad range of biological activities, which has been a hot area of research for several years. Up to now, lots of its derivatives with multiple bioactivities have been prepared through chemical modification. This review summarizes andrographolide derivatives prepared in the last ten years (2006-present), classifies them by different biological activities, and provides some discussion about the design of novel and potent derivatives.

An efficient synthesis of carbamate analogues of the NRTI compound stavudine, has been achieved in five steps starting from commercially available thymidine. The synthesis involves conversion of thymidine into stavudine followed by condensation with carbaimidazole derivative obtained from various aromatic and heterocyclic amines in dimethylformamide solvent. The analogues thus obtained were further purified by crystallization to furnish analytically pure products. Examination of biological activity of these carbamate derivatives of stavudine showed that they inhibited HIV replication only at micro-molar concentrations.
