Organic Synthesis: State of the Art 2005-2007 (Organic Synthesis: State of the Art)

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.

a Convenient, Compact Summary Of The State Of The Art Of Organic Synthesis

organic Synthesis Is A Vibrant And Rapidly Evolving Field; We Can Now Prepare Ketones By Directly Combining Aldehydes With Terminal Alkenes. Like The First Book In This Series, Organic Synthesis: State Of The Art 2003–2005, 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 Web Site, Are Consolidated Here, With Cumulative Indices Of Both 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 Applications Of Each Synthesis

• Details And Analyzes 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

• Features Cumulative Reaction/transformation And Author Indices Covering Both Books In The Series So Readers Can Quickly Get Up To Date On A Current Topic

this Series Offers Chemists An Effective, Efficient, Timesaving Way To Stay Abreast Of What's New And Exciting In Organic Synthesis.
