Description

Book Synopsis
The synthesis of complex natural products continues to occupy a central position in organic chemistry research, not only because nature provides us with some of the most synthetically challenging molecules that we can ever aspire to synthesise, but also because research in this area frequently drives important breakthroughs in methodology.

This distinguished volume provides an overview of the chemical synthesis of natural products at research and professional level. Authors concentrate on the major synthetic developments of the last decade, and the volume offers a point of entry to the more detailed research literature. Extensive literature references are included.



Table of Contents
Strategies for the chemical synthesis of complex carbohydrates; Total synthesis of macrolides; Polyether total synthesis; Important developments in the total synthesis of alkaloids; Recent developments in the chemical synthesis of naturally occurring aromatic heterocycles; Carboaromatic compounds; Highlights in the chemical synthesis of terpenes and terpenoids; Strategies for building and modifying naturally-occurring steroids; Synthesis of enediynes and dienediynes; The chemical synthesis of linear peptides and amino acids; Synthetic pathways to naturally occurring cyclic peptides; The chemical synthesis of naturally occurring cyclodepsipeptides; References; Index.
