Abstract

Normally, natural products are optically active compounds with a single enantiomer because they are biosynthesized from enzymatic catalysis. However, there are numbers of natural products isolated as a racemic mixture, i.e., the presence of the two enantiomers. This review provides information of some racemic natural products isolated from bio-resources. Biological activities of racemic natural products are also discussed.
