In this review, the biosynthesis of allicin (allyl thiosulfinate) by  enzymatic transformation of alliin and various methods of its synthesis with  detailed investigation of mechanisms and kinetics are summarized. A  convenient method is also described for determination of allicin stability  and the utility of the inclusion complexes of this pharmacologically active  agent with β-cyclodextrins in increasing its stability. Allicin is the  initial precursor for the production of ajoene ((E)- and  (Z)-4,5,9-trithiadodeca- 1,6,11-triene 9-oxides) and vinyldithiin  (2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin, and 3-vinyl-4H-1,2- dithiin), which are more stable  and show various pharmacological effects. The mechanisms of allicin  transformations to these compounds are given in detail. Finally, the data on  the pharmacological effects of allicin and its transformation products,  ajoene and vinyldithiin, are presented
