Covering: January 2003 to June 2004. Previous review: Nat. Prod. Rep.2003, 20, 584
Novel and structurally diverse natural products containing imidazole-, oxazole-, or thiazole-unit(s) display a wide variety of biological activities. The isolation, biological activity and total synthesis of naturally occurring muscarine, imidazole, oxazole and thiazole alkaloids have been reviewed.
