A vast array of natural organic compounds, the products of primary and secondary metabolism, occur in plants. This dictionary provides basic information, including structural formulae, on plant constituents. It profiles over 3000 substances from phenolics and alkaloids through carbohydrates and plant glycosides to oils and triterpenoids. For each substance, the author presents the trivial name, synonyms, structural type, chemical structure showing stereochemistry, molecular weight and formula, natural occurrence, biological activity and commercial or other use. Key references are provided for each class and subclass.

"... an excellent primary source to alert one to known bioactivity in a group of compounds. It should be a much used text in any laboratory where the discovery and study of biologically active compounds is important." - Biochemical Systematics and Ecology - "... its acquistion for any group dealing reglarly with phytochemicals would be a good investment." - Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology - "... invaluable for those of us involved in reading the vast literature concerning plant natural products ... a delightful volume which certainly deserves a place in the office of every phytochemist." - Phytochemical Analysis
