Stoichiometric Asymmetric Synthesis

ISBN-13: 9781841271118 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 250 str.

Opis

This volume provides, at postgraduate student level, an introduction to stoichiometric asymmetric synthesis. The authors focus on stereoselective C-C bond formation in acyclic systems, with an emphasis on the use of chiral auxiliaries and reagents. The book is extensively referenced and so provides a convenient point of entry to the research literature. For postgraduate students, lecturers and researchers in synthetic organic chemistry; and for industrial research chemists who require a broad understanding of the subject.
