The didactic presentation of the material makes this book an essential
bench-top tool not only for specialists in organic chemistry, but also for
students and all those involved in the preparation of organic molecules.
Key
Features:
- A critical survey of the most used protecting groups,
as used by organic chemists - Organization based on functional groups: hydroxyl ;
diol; carbonyl; carboxyl; amine - Special emphasis placed on deprotection conditions
applied to complex structures where selectivity is a prime issue
Transformations accompanied by key experimental
details- Examples from the recent literature span a wide
domain of organic synthesis - Over 500 schemes aid visual retrieval
- End-of-chapter list reviews which amplify topics
covered.
