Organic synthesis is a vibrant and rapidly evolving field; we can now cyclize amines directly onto alkenes. Like the first two books in this series, Organic Synthesis: State of the Art 2003-2005 and Organic Synthesis: State of the Art 2005-2007, this reference leads readers quickly to the most important recent developments. Two years of Taber's popular weekly online column, "Organic Chemistry Highlights", as featured on the organic-chemistry.org website, are consolidated here, with cumulative indices of all three volumes in this series. Important topics that are covered range from powerful new methods for C-C bond construction to asymmetric organocatalysis and direct C-H functionalization. This go-to reference focuses on the most important recent developments in organic synthesis, and includes a succinct analysis of the significance and applicability of each new synthetic method. It details and analyzes more than twenty complex total syntheses, including the Sammakia synthesis of the Macrolide RK-397, the Ley synthesis of Rapamycin, and the Kobayashi synthesis of (-)-Norzoanthamine.
Radicals and radical ions are important intermediates with wide use in organic synthesis. The first book to concentrate on reagents for the creation and use of radicals and radical ions, this new volume in the Handbooks of Reagents for Organic Synthesis series compiles articles taken from the e-eros database, on reagents for use in radical and radical chemistry, to help the chemist in the lab choose the right reagents. Reflecting the enormous growth of radical chemistry over the past ten years, this is an essential guide for all synthetic chemists.
The second volume in a series, Organic Synthesis: State of the Art 2005-2007 will provide you with a convenient, compact summary of the state of the art of organic synthesis. This reference guide will quickly lead you to the most important recent developments like how scientists can now prepare ketones by directly combining aldehydes with terminal alkenes. Inside, you will find detailed analysis of more than twenty total syntheses, including the Davies Synthesis of (-)-Colombiasin A and (-)-Elisapterosin B, the Overman Synthesis of (-)-Sarain A, and the Sorensen Synthesis of (-)-Guanacastepene E.
Magnesium remains almost unique among the metals in its ability to react directly with a wide variety of compounds. This organic chemistry field has seen steady progress, and a volume on this topic is long overdue. In the tradition of the Patai Series this title treats all aspects of functional groups, containing chapters on the theoretical and computational foundations; on analytical and spectroscopic aspects with dedicated chapters on Mass Spectrometry, NMR, IR/UV, etc.; on reaction mechanisms; on applications in syntheses. Depending on the functional group there are also chapters on industrial use, on effects in biological and/or environmental systems. Since the area of Organomagnesium Chemistry continues to grow far beyond the classical Grignard Reagents, this is an essential resource to help the reader keep abreast of the latest developments.
Over the last three decades the importance of organosiliconchemistry has greatly increased because it has opened a number ofnew synthetic strategies. Silicon reagents are usually low-cost,versatile and allow a wide range of reactions. This is the firstHandbook to compile essential Silicon containing reagents and makesuse of the leading reagent database e-EROS. Another hotvolume in the series Handbooks of Reagents for OrganicSynthesis, this is a must-have resource for all syntheticchemists working in drug development and medicinal chemistry. For the selection the Editor focussed on three key syntheticapproaches with the greatest impact: 1. Use of silicon as a 'temporary tether' by unifying a ...
Organized to provide maximum utility to the bench synthetic chemist. The editor is well-known for his work in exploring, developing, and applying organopalladium chemistry. Contributors include over 24 world authorities in the field.
While this important reaction class is among the most important and most widely used in organic chemistry, this is the first book to summarize the many different olefination methods, including: * Wittig reaction * Peterson reaction * Julia olefination * Utilizing the Tebbe and related reagents * Low-valent chromium, zinc or titanium mediated olefination * McMurry coupling plus the related reactions in each case and the application to asymmetric synthesis. It thus collates in one ready reference the current level of knowledge as well as new developments in this constantly evolving field -- information which until now has been dispersed throughout the literature.
The long awaited Handbook for all synthetic chemists working on coupling reactions, compiling all major catalyst components in use in the area. Consists of a compilation of articles taken from the EROS database, with the inclusion of about 20 newly commissioned catalysts/pre-catalysts/ligands that have made an impact in this area of synthetic organic chemistry. Includes catalyst systems used in Heck, Kumada-Tamao-Corriu, Suzuki-Miyaura, Hiyama-Hatanaka, Negishi, Migita-Kosugi-Stille, Buchwald-Hartwig, and Tsuji-Trost coupling reactions.
