Asymmetric Synthesis Of Natural Products Av Ari M. P. (Aalto University Espoo Finland) Koskinen

<b>Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products</b><p><b>Fully updated learning resource covering the concept of using natural product chemistry for strategies in asymmetric synthesis</b><p>The third edition of <i>Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products</i> introduces students to the rapidly growing field of natural products in organic chemistry, discussing the practical, mainly pharmacological, importance of selected compounds and emphasizing the target-oriented approach of organic synthesis which is key in industrial strategies. To aid in reader comprehension, the text includes key references and an Index of Compounds. <p>The textbook is based on two lecture courses (Asymmetric Synthesis & Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products), which the author has delivered more than 50 times over the past 20 years in Finland, the UK, Italy, and Greece.
