    Current Trends in Organic Synthesis is a collection of papers presented at the Fourth International Conference on Organic Synthesis, held in Tokyo, Japan on August 22-27, 1982. This conference brings together the significant achievements in the diversified frontier fields of organic synthesis. This book is composed of 33 chapters. The first chapters focus on the synthesis of biologically active natural compounds, including metabolites of arachidonic acid, erythromycin A, verrucarins, steroids, anthracyclines, terpenes, yeast alanine t-RNA, beta-lactam antibiotics, and palitoxin. Other chapters deal with the central problems in stereoselective and chiral synthesis, as well as processes of high degree of stereochemical control and asymmetric induction. These chapters also describe chiral pool synthesis by means of carbohydrate precursors. This book also examines the methodologies in organic synthesis using reagents with boron, aluminum, transition metals, silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur. The remaining chapters are devoted to reactions involving radical initiated ring closure, small ring hydrogenolysis, annulene synthesis, vicarious nucleophilic substitution of aromatic hydrogen, and dichlorine monoxide mediated powerful chlorination. This book is of value to organic chemists and allied scientists.

    Thermometric Titrimetry covers the significant progress in the application of thermometric titrimetry to routine analysis and as a research tool in the investigations of the basic phenomena associated with chemical reactions. This book is composed of 10 chapters and starts with a brief presentation of the basic principles of the technique. The succeeding chapters deal with the apparatus and several reactions involved in thermometric titrimetry, including neutralization, oxidation-reduction, and precipitation. A chapter focuses on the advantages of the technique for the determination of important commercial chemical, such as water and various chemical systems. The remaining chapters examine the use of some solvents as indicators, the industrial application of thermometric titrimetry, and an investigation of complex formation. This book will be of great value to analytical and laboratory chemists.

    26th International Congress of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Volume 4: Organic Chemistry is a collection of session lectures presented at the 26th International Congress of Pure and Applied Chemistry, held in Tokyo, Japan on September 4-10, 1977. This volume is composed of six chapters and starts with a discussion of the problems related to the understanding orders of nucleophilic reactivity. The succeeding chapters deal with the synthetic approaches to the pentagonal dodecahedrane and several designs and concepts in natural product synthesis. These topics are followed by the examination of the full structures of tissue culture adducts formed from polyaromatic hydrocarbons and nucleic acids. The final chapters describe the biosynthesis of aspulvinone metabolites from Aspergillus terreus and a mathematical model for the deductive solution of chemical problems using computer programs. This book is intended for organic chemists, researchers, and students.

  • Phosphorus Chemistry Directed Towards Biology

    Phosphorus Chemistry Directed Towards Biology presents an understanding of reaction mechanisms of organophosphorus compounds. This book discusses the development of analytical tools for the study of the chemistry of phosphorus, which promoted research in nucleic acid chemistry. Organized into 22 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the importance of the bacterial cell wall in maintaining the integrity of the cell in various environments. This text then examines the chemical problems concerning hypermodification and deprotection steps. Other chapters consider the reactive phosphorylating intermediates used in the oligonucleotide chemistry. This book discusses as well the possible role of phosphodiester triazolides and tetrazolides in the phosphotriester formation with arenesulfonyltriazol... and tetrazolides. The final chapter deals with the isolation of proteins involved in the synthesis and recognition of mRNA caps. This book is a valuable resource for phosphorus chemists, biologists, scientists, research workers, teachers, and students.
