Methods of Non-Alpha-Amino Acid Synthesis

Overview

This work provides a comprehensive overview of, and the most common and useful methods for, the synthesis of non-alpha-amino acids, particularly amino acids that are key synthetic intermediates or important compounds in their own right. Attention is paid to acyclic amino acids C3-C10 including amino alkanoic carboxylic acids, aminoalkenoic acids and aminoalkynoic acids.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
For scientists and advanced students in biological, medical, and pharmaceutical chemistry or physics, summarizes the main approaches to synthesizing amino acids in which the amino group is attached not to the carbon immediately adjacent to the carboxyl group (the alpha position), but to a carbon somewhere else in the chain. Describing techniques developed since 1962, focuses on the acyclic animo acids that have between three and ten carbons, especially aminoalkanoic carboxylic, animoalkenoic, and aminoalkynoic acids. Considers both chiral and achiral acids, and emphasizes the enentioselectivity of each synthetic process. Double spaced. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
