Book Synopsis Half a Century of Free Radical Chemistry by : Derek H. R. Barton
Download or read book Half a Century of Free Radical Chemistry written by Derek H. R. Barton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-04-15 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the experience over 25 years of the senior author with the chemistry of organic free radicals. It begins with a mechanistic study of industrial importance on the pyrolysis of chlorinated alkanes. It continues with a theory on the biosynthesis of phenolate derived alkaloids involving phenolate radical coupling. There follows 20 years of practical work to prove the theory correct, especially in the case of morphine alkaloids. The book then describes the work on nitrile photolysis (Barton reaction) which involved the invention of new radical chemistry leading to a simple synthesis of the important hormone, aldosterone. There follows a description of the invention of an important new method for the deoxygenation of biologically important molecules, especially sugars and nucleosides, using radical chemistry applied to thiocarbonyl derivatives. Some years later, in a logical extension to carboxylic acids, another new reaction was invented which provides carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and other radicals under mild conditions. A final chapter summarizes recent applications of thiocarbonyl group derived radical reactions by other authors.

Book Synopsis Triumph of the Heart by : Jie Jack Li
Download or read book Triumph of the Heart written by Jie Jack Li and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-03 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 25 million people in the U.S. alone have benefited from statins--such drugs as Lipitor, Zocor, Crestor, Pravachol, and other cholesterol-lowering medicines--in preventing stroke, heart attack, and other forms of coronary heart disease. But how did these remarkable, life-saving drugs come into being? In Triumph of the Heart, Dr. Jie Jack Li, a medicinal chemist and expert on drug discovery, tells for the first time the fascinating story of statins. Drawn from discussions with many scientists involved in the discovery and development of these drugs, the book illuminates the human side of science by revealing the role played by persistence, luck, and sudden insight that characterize major discoveries. For scientists in the drug industry, health care professionals, students of medicine, and all those intrigued by the basic human drive to explore and discover, Triumph of the Heart offers a compelling view of one of the most important drug discoveries of our time.
Book Synopsis Robert Burns Woodward by : Otto Theodor Benfey
Download or read book Robert Burns Woodward written by Otto Theodor Benfey and published by Chemical Heritage Foundation. This book was released on 2001 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Burns Woodward was the star of 20th-century organic chemistry. An MIT graduate by age 19, Woodward's ingenious notions about organic synthesis and his artful methodology were astounding. He is most famed for his synthesis of vitamin B12,which he undertook with Albert Eschenmoser, and for the orbital symmetry rules he developed with Roald Hoffmann. This volume presents Woodward's most celebrated papers and lectures--including the famous Cope lecture. Insightful commentaries and rarely seen photographs are also included.
Book Synopsis Chemical History by : Gerrylyn K Roberts
Download or read book Chemical History written by Gerrylyn K Roberts and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an historical overview of the recent developments in the history of diverse fields within chemistry. It follows on from Recent Developments in the History of Chemistry, a volume published in 1985. Covering chiefly the last 20 years, the primary aim of Chemical History: Reviews of the Recent Literature is to familiarise newcomers to the history of chemistry with some of the more important developments in the field. Starting with a general introduction and look at the early history of chemistry, subsequent chapters go on to investigate the traditional areas of chemistry (physical, organic, inorganic) alongside analytical chemistry, physical organic chemistry, medical chemistry and biochemistry, and instruments and apparatus. Topics such as industrial chemistry and chemistry in national contexts, whilst not featuring as separate chapters, are woven throughout the content. Each chapter is written by experts and is extensively referenced to the international chemical literature. Chemical History: Reviews of the Recent Literature is also ideal for chemists who wish to become familiar with historical aspects of their work. In addition, it will appeal to a wider audience interested in the history of chemistry, as it draws together historical materials that are widely scattered throughout the chemical literature.
Book Synopsis Organic Conformational Analysis and Stereochemistry from Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy by : David A. Lightner
Download or read book Organic Conformational Analysis and Stereochemistry from Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy written by David A. Lightner and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2000-03-31 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unter Zirkulardichroismus (CD) versteht man die spezifisch unterschiedliche Absorption von links- und rechtszirkular polarisiertem Licht durch bestimmte Moleküle. CD-Effekte lassen sich in Abhängigkeit von der Wellenlänge messen und spektroskopisch auswerten; sie geben beispielsweise Auskunft über die Konformation organischer Verbindungen. Dieses Buch richtet sich an den organischen Chemiker, der mit den Grundprinzipien der Stereochemie vertraut ist, und erläutert die Anwendung der CD-Spektroskopie zur Konformationsanalyse ausführlich und verständlich.
