The study of amino acids and peptides is becoming increasingly important to chemists becuase of the growing overlap of mainstream organic chemistry with bioorganic chemistry and biochemistry. This introductory text begins with a brief survey of the role and diversity of amino acids, peptides, and proteins in nature, and goes on to describe and explain the principal methods of chemical synthesis. With its emphasis on chemical principles and strategies rather than detailed technical matters, the book will be essential reading for all students of chemistry and biochemistry with an interest in this important field. This second edition contains extensive additions ... Read more

About John Jones
John Jones was active in mainstream peptide chemistry for over 30 years and and made a number of important contributions, especially the development of a novel histidine side chain protecting group. His interests have recently been drawn away from conventional peptide chemistry into peptidomimetics based on carbohydrate-derived building blocks. He is currently Editor-in-Chief, Newletter Editor, and Treasurer of the Journal ... Read more
Reviews for Amino Acid and Peptide Synthesis
Review from previous edition The "distillate" reads well ... The presentation is clear ... There is ample organic chemistry here for a short lecture course ... At the price quoted, no student should miss the chance of investing in such good value.
