Stereoselective Multiple Bond-Forming Transformations in Organic Synthesis

Combining the important research topic of multiple bond-forming transformations with green chemistry, this book helps chemists identify recent sustainable stereoselective synthetic sequences.

•    Combines the important research topic of multiple bond-forming transformations with green chemistry and sustainable development
•    Offers a valuable resource for preparing compounds with multiple stereogenic centers, an important field for synthetic chemists
•    Organizes chapters by molecular structure of final products, making for a handbook-style resource
•    Discusses applications of the synthesis of natural products and of drug intermediates
•    Brings together otherwise-scattered information about a number of key, efficient chemical reactions

Jean Rodriguez is Professor and Director of the “Institut des Sciences Moléculaires de Marseille” at Aix-Marseille Université, with research interests including the development of new stereoselective domino and multicomponent reactions and their applications. He was awarded the ACROS prize in Organic Chemistry (1998) and the prize of the Division of Organic Chemistry (2009) from the French Chemical Society and was named a Distinguished Senior Member (2013) of the French Chemical Society.

Damien Bonne is an assistant professor at Aix-Marseille Université, with research interests including the development of new asymmetric organocatalyzed methodologies and their application in stereoselective synthesis.
