E-Books →Addition Reactions with Unsaturated Hydrocarbons

Unsaturated hydrocarbons have emerged as an important class of fundamental starting materials in organic synthesis. Synthetic methodologies incorporating unsaturated hydrocarbons continue to expand due to their numerous applications in the synthesis of a vast array of chemicals.
Addition Reactions with Unsaturated Hydrocarbonspresents an up-to-date overview of modern methods that utilize reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons as building blocks of organic synthesis, covering the conceptual and practical knowledge required for designing atom-efficient reactions to synthesize functionalized molecules. This authoritative volume discusses homo-dimerization and cross-dimerization of alkynes and/or alkenes, synthesis of carbonyl compounds from the hydration of alkynes, cycloadditions of alkynes and alkenes for the synthesis of carbocycles and heterocycles, double functionalization of alkynes and alkenes by addition reactions of element-element bonds, and more.
Summarizes the most recent developments in the reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbonsFeatures more than 600 schemes describing typical reactions starting from unsaturated hydrocarbonsCovers topics such as alkynylated reactions, addition and cycloaddition reactions of alkynes and alkenes, and carbonylation of alkynes and alkenes with carbon monoxideIncludes examples of synthesis procedures of natural products involving alkyne transformation
With comprehensive coverage of important reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons,Addition Reactions with Unsaturated Hydrocarbonsis a valuable resource for organic chemists, pharmaceutical chemists, and biochemists in both academia and industry as well as an excellent reference text for graduate students in relevant areas of chemistry.
