Sets forth an important group of environmentally friendly
organic reactions
With contributions from leading international experts in organic
synthesis, this book presents all the most important methodologies
for stereoselective organocatalysis, fully examining both the
activation mode as well as the type of bond formed. Clear
explanations guide researchers through all the most important
methods used to form key chemical bonds, including carbon-carbon
(C-C), carbon-nitrogen (C-N), and carbon-halogen
(C-X) bonds. Moreover, readers will discover how the use of
non-metallic catalysts facilitates a broad range of important
reactions that are environmentally friendly and fully meet the
standards of green chemistry.
Stereoselective Organocatalysis begins with an historical
overview and a review of activation modes in asymmetric
organocatalysis. The next group of chapters is organized by bond
type, making it easy to find bonds according to their applications.
The first of these chapters takes a detailed look at the many
routes to C-C bond formation. Next, the book covers:
* Organocatalytic C-N bond formation
* C-O bond formation
* C-X bond formation
* C-S, C-Se, and C-B bond formation
* Enantioselective organocatalytic reductions
* Cascade reactions forming both C-C bonds and
C-heteroatom bonds
The final chapter is devoted to the use of organocatalysis for
the synthesis of natural products. All the chapters in the book are
extensively referenced, serving as a gateway to the growing body of
original research reports and reviews in the field.
Based on the most recent findings and practices in organic
synthesis, Stereoselective Organocatalysis equips synthetic
chemists with a group of organocatalytic reactions that will help
them design green reactions and overcome many challenges in organic
synthesis.
