      Sonochemical Synthesis of Natural Products and Heterocycles of Pharmaceutical Importance: Strategy Towards a Sustainable Society comprehensively summarizes of sonochemistry and ultrasound and their applicability to synthetic organic chemistry. Ultrasound has emerged as a potent activation technique for the development of low cost, efficient, and sustainable methodologies for the synthesis of natural products and heterocycles. Chapters demonstrate the application of sonochemistry to synthesizing molecules of natural origin, organic compounds containing N-heterocycles, O-heterocycles, and S-heterocycles, and the total synthesis and semisynthesis of bioactive compounds under ultrasonication through case studies, and detailed illustrations and methodologies. Sonochemical organic synthesis under solvent- and catalyst-free conditions and in an aqueous medium as a green solvent, use of nanoparticles as efficient catalysts, and green routes for drug design and synthesis using ultrasound, and their application in pharmaceutical and environmental chemistry are also explored. Sonochemical Synthesis of Natural Products and Heterocycles of Pharmaceutical Importance: Strategy Towards a Sustainable Society is a valuable resource for organic synthesis experts, specialists in natural products, advocates for sustainable chemistry and researchers and professionals working in total synthesis, semisynthesis, organic synthesis, and medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical industries.

      Over the past 50 years, more than 20,000 natural compounds have been identified in the marine environment, with an increasing focus on marine metabolites as potential sources for developing effective therapeutic agents. The field of marine drug discovery has seen remarkable growth in recent years, with numerous marine-derived therapeutic candidates in various stages of clinical trials or awaiting approval. The ocean is a potential source of natural products with diverse pharmacological properties, including antimicrobial, anticancer, antiviral, antioxidative, and anti-inflammatory activities. However, commercializing marine natural products has been challenging due to low yields and specificity of specialized (secondary) metabolites. Marine Specialized (Secondary) Metabolites and their Diverse Applications provides a broad overview of marine specialized metabolites and their potential in various industries. With comprehensive coverage, relevance to current trends, interdisciplinary approach, and practical applications, this book includes specific compounds or organisms, with a particular focus on addressing the challenges and limitations associated with them.
