It focuses on synthetic organic chemistry, major topics in the
course, which include organometallic reagents, oxidation/reduction reactions,
complex synthesis. Covers synthesis and reactions of nonbenzenoid aromatic
compounds: tropone and tropolone, polycyclic aromatic compounds. This book
introduces students to the disconnection approach in synthetic strategy, and
protecting groups were discussed in great detail. It will be very useful for
postgraduate students in advanced organic synthesis, who would like to learn how
complex organic molecules are made.
This textbook is
designed for students in biology, biochemistry, or the health sciences and is
meant to bridge the gap between organic chemistry on one side and biological
systems on the other. It rapidly covers foundational topics like organic
structure, bonding, and stereochemistry but emphasizes the biological relevance
of organic reactions. This text includes determining structures, organic
reactivity, and important reaction types- nucleophilic substitutions and
acid-base equilibria-in biological contexts. It goes into detail to show
examples about how the principles of organic chemistry apply in the study of
biochemical processes, making it a very useful resource for the student in life
sciences who needs a practical understanding of organic chemistry in biological
systems.
It is
an advanced-level book that is focused on synthesis: particularly on strategies
for stereoselective synthesis. Methods for the stereocontrolled synthesis of
acyclic compounds that are essential to be built with specific three-dimensional
configurations are included. The book focuses a lot on the latest techniques and
strategies in building complex organic structures, discussing much about
reaction mechanisms and problems with stereoselectivity in synthetic pathways.
This is the definitive resource for graduate students and researchers in organic
synthesis and for those who want to be better equipped with a deeper
understanding of synthetic methodologies.
