Amino Acids: Insights and Roles in Heterocyclic Chemistry. Volume 4 Azlactones and Oxazolidin-5-ones by Zerong Wang
Requirements: .PDF reader, 14.7 MB
Overview: This first-of-its-kind four-volume book series provides up-to-date information on α-amino acids, detailing the potential challenges in working with α-amino acids, the protecting groups for the carboxyl, side chain groups of the amino acids, and the most popular heterocyclic compounds that are originating from α-amino acids. These heterocyclic compounds include hydantoins, thiohydantoins (including 2-thiohydantoins, 4-thiohydantoins, 2,4-dithiohydantoins), 2,5-diketopiperazines, N-carboxyanhydrides, N-thiocarboxyanhydrides, sydnones, sydnonimines, azlactones, pseudoazlactones, and oxazolidin-5-ones. This is the first resource to comprehensively present all the heterocycles that can be directly prepared from α-amino acids. In addition, almost all kinds of synthetic methods for a particular type of heterocycles from α-amino acids are included, along with the detailed mechanistic discussions and experimental procedures.
Volume 4: Azlactones and Oxazolidin-5-ones discusses two types of simple heterocycles that can be prepared from α-amino acids, i.e., azlactones (also known as oxazolones, 4-unsaturated azlactones included) and oxazolidin-5-ones. These heterocyclic compounds behave differently in both biological and chemical properties, and their biological activities are presented in a well-organized manner in this volume.
