      Murwanashyaka, Juvenal (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2013-05-21)
      2,5-diketopiperazines (DKPs) are naturally occurring cyclopeptides obtained by the condensation of two amino acids. They are found alone or among other natural products produced by fungi, bacteria, the plant kingdom and mammals One way of obtaining substituted DKPS is by aldol condensation of 1,4-Diacetylpiperazine-2,5-dione with aldehydes. In this project, we wanted to study the effect of various ...
