Written by a leading expert in the field, this is a comprehensivereview of the methods for preparing stereochemically definedfluorine-containing compounds of biomedical importance.
Fluorinated organic compounds are well known for their unusualreactivity but the growing importance of these compounds in thebiomedical field has been accompanied by an increasing awareness ofthe necessity to synthesise and explore the biological propertiesof stereochemically defined fluoro-compounds. This is the firstbook written on this exciting area of research.
It contains:
* detailed reviews on stereocontrolled synthesis of biologicallyimportant compounds
* 21 chapters covering the main areas of asymmetric synthesis andbiocatalysts where fluorine plays a key role
* mechanisms and methods for synthesizing fluoro-organiccompounds
Written for professionals involved in organic, physical andorganofluorine chemistry, natural product synthesis, biological,pharmaceutical and other life science related industries.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"It is clearly the view of the editor and authors who have contributed to this volume that organofluorine chemistry is at a new threshold with an array of methods now available to place fluorine and fluorinated functional groups at stereogenic centres. Such compounds have hardly been exploited commercially. The wealth of information in this book demonstrates this focus which one anticipates will have an increasing impact on the fine chemical, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals sectors. The book is packed with examples from the recent literature and the readers' attention is continually drawn to points of detail and anecdotes as the volume is browsed. This is not just a book for specialists in organo-fluorine chemistry, it is a book for all organic chemists. ... This is a splendid book.", (David O'Hagan, Natural Products Reports)
