The past two decades have seen an explosion in research on the
synthesis of sesquiterpenes, an important class of hydrocarbons
commonly found in oils, resins, and balsams. Volume Eleven in The
Total Synthesis of Natural Products series continues to review this
dynamic area of chemistry. It features systematic, A-to-Z coverage
of sesquiterpenes synthesized between 1979-1994-a sesquidecade.
Focusing on bicyclic and tricyclic compounds in sesquiterpene
synthesis, this authoritative work complements Volume Ten's
coverage of acyclic and monocyclic sesquiterpenes. The authors comb
through the hundreds of sesquiterpene syntheses already developed,
consolidating the multitude of research papers, and providing
extensive references as well as author and subject indexes. To keep
the presentation manageable, they emphasize literature where
natural products were prepared, leaving out natural ring systems or
compounds whose structures were misassigned.
This volume presents multiple syntheses of the same compound in
chronological order, making the various steps of the synthetic
strategy easily accessible. In addition, it addresses one of the
most important developments in sesquiterpene research, namely the
increase in compound targets prepared in an optically active form.
And while syntheses of racemates are not specifically marked,
legends for synthesis schemes producing optically active compounds
include their absolute configurations, signs of optical rotation,
or both.
An important resource for organic chemists, pharmaceutical and
medicinal chemists, natural prod-ucts chemists, and biochemists,
The Total Synthesis of Natural Products offers valuable insight
into the structure andmakeup of sesquiterpenes while serving as a
practical tool for locating any of the major classes of
sesquiterpene compounds.
An invaluable guide for the chemist interested in natural
products.
Providing a fascinating, comprehensive look at sesquiterpene
synthesis, Volume Eleven of The Total Synthesis of Natural Products
reviews sesquiterpenes synthesized in the period 1979-1994,
continuing the coverage begun with Volume Ten in the series (see
below). This authoritative work:
* Focuses on bicyclic and tricyclic sesquiterpenes.
* Explains the structure and makeup of this important class of
hydrocarbons.
* Serves as a useful, practical tool for researchers interested in
locating any of the major classes of sesquiterpene compounds.
* Provides multiple syntheses of the same compound
chronologically, clearly showing the evolution of the synthetic
strategy.
Also available . . .THE TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF NATURAL PRODUCTS Volume
Ten, Edited by David Goldsmith.
A complement to this work, Volume Ten examines compounds with
acyclic and monocyclic ring structures in sesquiterpene synthesis.
