The indispensable reference for the twenty-first century chemist...
A fascinating and comprehensive look into one of chemistry's
fastest growing specialties--sesquiterpene synthesis--Volume Ten of
The Total Synthesis of Natural Products focuses on acyclic and
monocyclic compounds and sheds light on the structure and makeup of
this important class of hydrocarbons.
A useful and practical tool for researchers interested in
locating any of the major classes of sesquiterpene compounds, the
author will also provide, if needed, a database to the more than
1,600 articles on sesquiterpene synthesis. The ultimate index to
the newest experimental work in synthetic chemistry, this latest
volume in The Total Synthesis of Natural Products series is also a
glossary to the new language of chemistry in the next century.

THE TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF NATURAL PRODUCTS, Volume Eleven
Volume Eleven continues the authoritative coverage on
sesquiterpene synthesis begun in Volume Ten, examining compounds
with bicyclic and tricyclic ring structures., 1997
(0-471-18874-3)
The research on the synthesis of sesquiterpenes, derivatives of
terpenes, a class of hydrocarbons commonly found in oils, resins,
and balsams, has grown exponentially over the past fifteen years.
With over 500 sesquiterpene syntheses already developed, the
literature on this experimental specialty is voluminous, now
encompassing over 1,600 re-search papers. Volume Ten in The Total
Synthesis of Natural Products provides a systematic and
comprehensive look at acyclic and monocyclic compounds in
sesquiterpene synthesis.
Reflecting one of the significant changes in
sesquiterpenere-search, that is, the increase in compound targets
prepared in an optically active form, the present volume includes
their absolute configurations, signs of optical rotation, or
both.
This newest volume in The Total Synthesis of Natural Products
series is an "A-to-Z" look at acyclic and monocyclic compounds in
sesquiterpene synthesis, one of the most dynamic areas in the
ongoing revolution in chemical synthesis, and is a must for the
chemical professional.
