Amino Acids: Insights and Roles in Heterocyclic Chemistry: Volume 4: Azlactones and Oxazolidin-5-ones

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-carboxyanh...
