Description for Enantioselective Synthesis
Hardcover. Discusses the use of chiral terpenes in the synthesis of various types of naturally occurring compounds. This synthesis exemplifies the importance of acquiring chiral compounds for various purposes, such as pharmaceuticals. Num Pages: 336 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: PNN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 244 x 167 x 24. Weight in Grams: 624.
In recent years the intense activities of enantioselective synthesis have been reflected in the burgeoning and ingenious applications of such natural substances as carbohydrates, -amino acids and terpenes. A comprehensive summary of terpene-based synthesis is offered, focusing on synthetic efforts using transformed chiral synthons. The author provides analysis of synthetic strategies and discusses the intricacies of reaction courses. Along with the number and variety of natural products derived from chiral terpenes, numerous flow-charts aid in clearly delineating synthetic pathways.
