Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products Ari Koskinen Department of
Chemistry, University of Oulu, Finland Natural product synthesis
has played a key role in the development of many synthetic methods
and will continue to do so in the future. Many recent advances in
such diverse fields as immunology, cellular biology and materials
science have been achieved through the synthetic chemist's ability
to construct often very complicated structures in one enantiomeric
form. This book introduces the student to this rapidly growing
field of organic chemistry. The first three chapters present the
foundations of asymmetric synthesis, with Chapter 3 describing, in
concise but clear rationalizations, the reasons for the major
asymmetric transformations. Chapters 4 to 10 cover individual
classes of natural products; their structures, biosynthesis and
interrelationships as well as examples of asymmetric syntheses and
the practical value of these compounds.
