This monograph analyses skeletal rearrangements, which are of exceptional importance in synthetic organic chemistry. It details the mechanisms for synthesizing valuable natural bioactive compounds, with over 100 examples. Essential for chemists, researchers, and students.
This book is the only monograph that analyses in detail and comprehensively, at a high scientific level and in a concise form, the main issues of skeletal rearrangements, which are of exceptional importance in synthetic organic chemistry. Particular attention is paid to the description of the mechanisms of skeletal rearrangements leading to hard-to-reach and valuable natural bioactive compounds, the synthesis of which by other routes is extremely difficult. A description of the mechanisms of over one hundred examples of reactions occurring through skeletal rearrangements of various types is given. The book will be useful for chemists and researchers working in the field of organic synthesis and can also be recommended to teachers, postgraduate students and students of higher education institutions and universities.
Most chemists have little understanding of crystallography. This book provides a basic, non-mathematical education on crystallographic methods, written in language chemists use. It is designed for students and any chemist who has had no instruction in the subject.
When the spherical molecule C60 was discovered in 1985, a science journalist did more than just report the news. He linked the glamorous discovery to the world of soot science, contriving a spectacular argument between scientists to promote the discoverers’ claim to fame.
This entry-level textbook prepares college students for advanced science courses by bridging the gap from high school chemistry. It emphasizes the history of the discipline to create a storyline, showing how modern chemical vocabulary makes sense only in the light of history.
This multidisciplinary volume presents new research in archaeological chemistry, applying chemical techniques to study the material remains of past cultures. It shows how the field combines analytical chemistry, history, and materials science to better understand our past.
This book describes fundamental mechanisms and catalytic pathways of key enzymes like cytochromes P450 and kinases. Learn to solve kinetic and mechanistic problems and confidently present your results in high-impact journals, even without significant previous experience.
This textbook presents the foundations of electrochemistry, necessary to understand chemical power sources like batteries, hydrogen production, and corrosion protection. It is a systematic presentation from theory to practice, outlining concepts, formulas, and research methods.
Heterogeneous catalysis is founded on solid state chemistry, but the relationship is often elusive. This book provides insights into solid state chemistry to widen the vision of catalysis, covering structure, bonding, and defects and their implications.
This book sums up over half a century of research in derivative spectroscopy. For the first time, it offers the big picture of all spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic derivative methods, with reproducible calculations, serving as a practical guide for researchers and students.
Organic synthesis rarely goes to plan. To fight meagre yields and side reactions, you need to master reaction mechanisms. This book moves you from knowing the simple steps of an undergraduate degree to envisioning the convoluted mechanisms needed in professional practice.
This is the first book to form the big picture of all data analytics methods in spectroscopy. Its rigorous mathematical basis, in-depth descriptions, numerous examples, and reproducible calculations make it a valuable guide for practitioners, students, and lecturers.
This textbook covers the main classes of organic compounds, their structure, properties, and preparation. It connects theoretical concepts like stereochemistry, kinetics, and thermodynamics with modern methods of synthesis and analysis. For university students of chemistry.
