摘要：Small molecules occurring in nature have special significance to mankind. They have varied applications from healthcare, food, nutrition, agriculture, personal care and well-being. These natural small molecules are from very diverse sources from the rarest plants to deep sea creatures. Recently they have assumed a lot of significance as pharmaceutical companies is constantly pushing the horizons to make them druggable due to their inherent bioactivities. Though they are not easy to synthesize or isolate, yet their diverse molecular scaffold confers them significance especially given the fact of prevailing resistance to drug scaffolds presently being used in the clinics. Hence its of paramount importance to have a database of diverse natural small molecules through the present effort of creating a Virtual Natural Products Library (VNPL-version 0.15).
