This book has so closely matched the requirements of its readership
over the years that it has become the first choice for chemists
worldwide.
Heterocyclic chemistry comprises at least half of all organic
chemistry research worldwide. In particular, the vast majority of
organic work done in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries
is heterocyclic chemistry.
The fifth edition of "Heterocyclic Chemistry" maintains the
principal objective of earlier editions - to teach the fundamentals
of heterocyclic reactivity and synthesis in a way that is
understandable to second- and third-year undergraduate chemistry
students. The inclusion of more advanced and current material also
makes the book a valuable reference text for postgraduate taught
courses, postgraduate researchers, and chemists at all levels
working with heterocyclic compounds in industry.
Fully updated and expanded to reflect important 21st century
advances, the fifth edition of this classic text includes the
following innovations: Extensive use of colour to highlight changes
in structure and bonding during reactionsEntirely new chapters on
organometallic heterocyclic chemistry, heterocyclic natural
products, especially in biochemical processes, and heterocycles in
medicineNew sections focusing on heterocyclic fluorine compounds,
isotopically labeled heterocycles, and solid-phase chemistry,
microwave heating and flow reactors in the heterocyclic context
Essential teaching material in the early chapters is followed by
short chapters throughout the text which capture the essence of
heterocyclic reactivity in concise resumes suitable as
introductions or summaries, for example for examination
preparation. Detailed, systematic discussions cover the reactivity
and synthesis of all the important heterocyclic systems. Original
references and references to reviews are given throughout the text,
vital for postgraduate teaching and for research scientists.
Problems, divided into straightforward revision exercises, and more
challenging questions (with solutions available online), help the
reader to understand and apply the principles of heterocyclic
reactivity and synthesis.
