This article covers 1) the chemical syntehsis of natural C_28 brassinosteroids and their deuterio-labeled compounds and precursor sterols, 2) related brassinosteroid analogs and their biological activity, 3) the role of synthetic organic chemistry in the clarification of brassinolide biosynthesis, and 4) its role in the analysis of brassinosteroid dwarf mutants. 收起
