Synopsis

Devising methods and reagents for stereoselective synthesis is an intellectually demanding venture. Six experts on diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis contributed their papers to this volume. They were presented at a symposium on stereoselective synthesis to honour Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Rudolf Wiechert's achievements in medicinal chemistry research. The symposium was organized by the Schering AG on the occasion of Professor Wiechert's 65th birthday.

About this title

Synopsis:

A symposium on stereoeselective synthesis was organized by the Schering AG to honour Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Rudolf Wiechert's 65th birthday and his achievements in over 30 years of successful medicinal chemistry research. The six plenary lectures by leading scientists are published in this book. The contributions highlight recent progress on diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis. Intriguing methodological work, synthesis of homochiral building blocks and elegant and highly efficient applications to the synthesis of stereochemically demanding target molecules are presented. From the Contents: Steroids and Stereochemistry - Enantioselective Catalysis with Chiral Metal Complexes - New Aspects in Stereoselective Synthesis of Aminoalcohols and Amino Acids - Enzymemimetic C-C and C-N Bond Formations - Synthesis of Natural Product of Polyketide Origin, An Exemplary Case - Progress in the Diels/Alder Reaction Means Progress in Steroid Synthesis
