Catalyzed Carbon-Heteroatom Bond Formation ebook | Andrei K. Yudin, John F. Hartwig | 9783527633401

Written by an experienced editor widely acclaimed within the scientific community, this book covers everything from oxygen to nitrogen functionalities.

From the contents:

• Palladium-Catalyzed Syntheses of Five-Membered Saturated Heterocycles
• The Formation of Carbon-Sulfur and Carbon-Selenium Bonds by Substitution and Addition Reactions Catalyzed by Transition Metal Complexes
• Palladium-Catalysis for Oxidative 1,2-Difunctionalization of Alkenes
• Palladium-Catalyzed Formation of Aromatic Heterocycles
• Rhodium-Catalyzed Amination of C-H-Bonds
• Transition Metal-Catalyzed Synthesis of Heterocycles
• Copper-Catalyzed Synthesis of Azoles
• Palladium(II)-Catalyzed C-N Bond Formation Involving Aminopalladation of Aklenes
• Carbon-Heteroatom Bond Formation by Rh(I)-Catalyzed Ring-Opening Reactions
• Recent Advances in Homogeneous Gold Catalysis: Formation of Carbon-Heteroatom Bonds

The result is an indispensable source of information for the strategic planning of the synthetic routes for organic, catalytic and medicinal chemists, as well as chemists in industry.

Professor Andrei K. Yudin obtained his PhD degree at the University of Southern California under the direction of Professors G. K. Surya Prakash and George A. Olah. He then took up a post-doctoral position in the laboratory of Professor K. Barry Sharpless at the Scripps Research Institute. In 1998 he started his independent career at the University of Toronto where he is now a Full Professor. His research interests are in the development of novel synthetic methods, metal catalysis, peptide chemistry, and synthesis of complex molecules of biological significance.
