Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products Fully updated learning
resource covering the concept of using natural product chemistry
for strategies in asymmetric synthesis The third edition of
Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products introduces students to the
rapidly growing field of natural products in organic chemistry,
discussing the practical, mainly pharmacological, importance of
selected compounds and emphasizing the target-oriented approach of
organic synthesis which is key in industrial strategies. To aid in
reader comprehension, the text includes key references and an Index
of Compounds. The textbook is based on two lecture courses
(Asymmetric Synthesis & Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural
Products), which the author has delivered more than 50 times over
the past 20 years in Finland, the UK, Italy, and Greece. This third
edition is fully updated from the earlier versions (published by
Wiley in 1993 and 2012). The importance of natural products as
truly renewable raw materials in sustainable chemistry and circular
economy is illustrated through applications of e.g.
organocatalysis, organometallic catalysis, and biocatalysis. The
contents consist of traditional text supplemented with
illustrations (such as chemical drawings and structural formulae).
Three dimensional aspects are also discussed with the use of 3D
renderings of structures for both reaction mechanisms (molecular
modeling) and crystallographic data. Sample topics covered in the
textbook include: The foundations of asymmetric synthesis,
including the theory and applications of individual asymmetric
reactions Sustainable development, the circular economy, and use of
renewable raw materials that have become prominent in many fields
of science and technology Various natural product classes,
including carbohydrates, amino acids, peptides, proteins,
nucleosides, nucleotides, nucleic acids, and polyketides The
properties of these natural product classes, including their
structures, biosynthesis, and interrelationships, as well as
examples of asymmetric syntheses and the practical value of these
compounds Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products is a
comprehensive, authoritative, and up-to-date learning resource on
the subject for advanced level undergraduate or early-stage
graduate students. It is also useful for specialists already
working in synthesis who wish to learn about asymmetric synthesis.
