《自然產品報告》是一本雙月期的評論期刊。它旨在通過定期和全面地審查在明確時期出版的相關文獻，促進天然產物生物有機化學和化學生物學的研究進展。主題包括主要天然產物群的分離、結構、生物合成、生物活性和化學——生物堿、萜類和類固醇、脂肪族、芳香族和O-雜環(huán)化合物以及海洋、植物和微生物起源的其他代謝產物。這方面的報道得到了廣泛的生物有機化學背景的頻繁審查，包括酶學、核酸、遺傳學、化學生態(tài)學、一級和二級代謝以及分離和分析技術的發(fā)展，這將是該領域所有工人普遍感興趣的。杰出科學家偶爾發(fā)表的文章提供了一個重要的歷史視角，從相關人員的個人觀點來描述重大進展。

Natural Product Reports is a bimonthly journal of critical reviews. It aims to stimulate progress in the study of natural products bioorganic chemistry and chemical biology by providing regular and comprehensive reviews of the relevant literature published during well-defined periods. Topics include the isolation, structure, biosynthesis, biological activity, and chemistry of the major groups of natural products - alkaloids, terpenoids and steroids, aliphatic, aromatic and O-heterocyclic compounds, and other metabolites of marine, plant and microbial origins. This coverage is augmented by frequent reviews of the wider context of bioorganic chemistry, including developments in enzymology, nucleic acids, genetics, chemical ecology, primary and secondary metabolism, and isolation and analytical techniques, which will be of general interest to all workers in the area. Occasional articles by eminent scientists provide an important historical perspective describing major developments from the personal viewpoint of those involved.
