Seminars in organic synthesisVol. 9 - v. 9

The ninth volume in the series on organic synthesis encompasses subjects as diverse as synthetic macrocyclic receptors and the use of palladium in the construction of complex organic molecules.

A section on combinatorial chemistry provides an introduction to this rapidly developing area.

Concepts, terms and basic techniques are discussed, along with analytical techniques for solid and solution-phase combinatorial chemistry.

Critical surveys are presented on total syntheses of natural products; organometallic compounds in organic synthesis; and the introduction and transformation of functional groups.
