Chapters offer a detailed analysis of key methodologies including addition reactions of amines to alkenes and alkynes, condensation reactions involving acid and amine moieties, and unique approaches combining amine and alcohol functionalities. The book explores the synthesis of β-lactams, a class of compounds with pharmaceutical significance, through the condensation of amine and alcohol moieties, while also examining the synthesis of azetidines from halo-substituted amine compounds. By presenting a systematic overview of synthetic strategies, this book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, chemists, and practitioners seeking to broaden their understanding of azetidine synthesis and explore innovative approaches to chemical transformations involving amines and related functional groups.
- Explains the many methods for the synthesis of azetidines from amines including a comprehensive description of heterocycle synthesis
- Provides the most up-to-date information in this fast-moving field with the most critical growth areas covered extensively
- Describes an important and rapidly growing branch of heterocyclic chemistry
Graduate students, faculty, professionals, and researchers in Synthetic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Medicinal Chemistry.
