Acerca del autor

Lutz Tietze studied chemistry at the universities of Freiburg and Kiel, Germany, gaining his doctorate under Prof. Dr. B. Franck. He carried out research at MIT in Cambridge, USA, and at the University of Cambridge, UK. In 1975 he gained his lecturing qualification at Munster University, taking up a professorial chair at the University of Dortmund two years later. He has been Professor and Head of the Institute for Organic Chemistry at the Georg-August-University in Gottingen since 1978. Ulf Diederichsen did his thesis at the ETH in Zurich in 1993, becoming full professor in 1999 at the University of Wurzburg, after carrying out research with D.P. Curran and H. Kessler. He is currently professor at the department of chemistry at the University of Gottingen. Andreas Speicher wrote his thesis on organic synthesis in 1994 and became a member of the faculty at the University of Saarland as a lecturer in 2003 and as Akademischer Oberrat in 2005.

De la contraportada

Presenting a broad spectrum of Modern synthetic methods, including transition metal catalyzed, biochemical and enantioselective reactions, as well as total syntheses of natural products, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, this textbook with full and carefully checked experimental procedures gives readers all the necessary information. This includes retrosynthetic analyses, mechanistical discussions and general information about the compounds described. Moreover, a list of keywords for each synthesis and numerous tables provides an excellent overview.

The book is equally valuable for students and lecturers in chemistry at universities as well as for chemists in industry.
