This reactionisbeing investi- gated further and will be applied for the preparation of other new types of polyketide mustard oils. If this method of synthesis finds as wide an application as we anticipate, it will enable us to obtain several isothio- cyanates of new types, which should be of great biochemical interest.

Cruising the Fiji Islands

The Fiji Islands Cruising in Fiji waters offers many of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. You may experience remote and uninhabited islands, stretching reefs, exhilarating diving, plentiful fishing, a range of cultural experiences and you will still leave wishing to cruise further and explore more…just to the next island…and the island after that….. There are so many reasons to cruise the idyllic waters of Fiji. It is one of the warmest, friendliest nations on earth and caters to cruisers looking for adventure, time out, experiences with locals, and isolated cruising. Fiji is a nation comprising 322 islands in 18,376 square kilometers of the Pacific Ocean. The islands range from being large and volcanic with high peaks and lush terrain, to atolls so small they peak out of the warm aqua water only when the tide recedes.
