Overview

Cyclo additions are among the most important tools for synthesis in organic chemistry, since this type of reaction is vital to the modern synthesis of natural products and biologically effective substances Catalysis with metals plays an increasingly important role in these reactions, often allowing several sterocenters to be selectively integrated in the subsequent target molecule. Kobayashi and Jorgensen's manual provides numerous examples of cyclopropanes, [2+2], [3+2] and [4+2] cycloadditions and 1,3-dipolar additions. A number of experimental procedures give a concrete idea of the use of metal-catalytic cyclo additions in modern synthesis. The book is aimed at all chemists working in synthesis laboratories, whether in industry or academia, who want to effectively use cyclo additions for their reactions.

...highly useful coverage of these rapidly expanding research areas... (Synthesis, No.10, 2002) ...surveys the various types of meal--catalyzed cycloaddition reactions and their applications in organic synthesis. (SciTech Book News, Vol. 26, No. 2, June 2002) ...it contains a number of excellent current reciews of the subject... (Chemistry & Industry, 4 November 2002) ...excellent book...will be appreciated by chemists in academia and industry... (Journal of Natural Products, 2003)
