Abstract
Covering: 2020This review covers the literature published in 2020 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 757 citations (747 for the period January to December 2020) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1407 in 420 papers for 2020), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Pertinent reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. A meta analysis of bioactivity data relating to new MNPs reported over the last five years is also presented.

Abstract
Marine natural products are known for their diverse chemical structures and extensive bioactivities. Renieramycins, the member of tetrahydroisoquinoline family of marine natural products, arouse interests because of their strong antitumor activities and similar structures to the first marine antitumor agent ecteinascidin-743, approved by the European Union. According to the literatures, researches on the pharmacological activities of renieramycins mainly focus on their antitumor activities. In addition, by structural modification, derivatives of renieramycins show stronger antiproliferative activity and less accidental necrosis activity on cells. Nevertheless, the difficulties in extraction and separation hinder their further development. Hence, the synthetic chemistry work of renieramycins plays a key role in their further development. In this review, currently reported researches on the synthetic chemistry, pharmacological activities and structural modification of renieramycins are summarized, which will benefit future drug development and innovation.
