Modern Enyne Chemistry

Describes the Efficient and Practical Methods for the Synthesis of Various Functionalized Organic Molecules From Enynes Through Different Transformations

In the past decades, enynes have become increasingly popular among organic chemists due to their unique structure and diverse transformations such as cycloaddition, cyclization, which has led to a variety of cyclic products. Modern Enyne Chemistry presents efficient and practical methods for the synthesis of various functionalized organic molecules from enynes through different transformations such as cycloadditions, cycloisomerization, cyclizations, and tandem reactions.

Authored by a well-qualified industry professional, the work is broken down into seven chapters and includes sample topics such as:



The synthesis of conjugated enynes
Diverse transformations
The synthetic power of enynes for rapid assembly of complex molecular structures
A mechanistic rationale to aid readers in understanding the reactions together with the new transformations in unsaturated compounds

For organic chemists, natural products chemists, and biochemists, this book serves as a complete reference work for understanding both modern and historical research on the topic of enynes, plus their numerous applications to today’s industries.
