A unique textbook with a unique concept presenting pitfalls, problems and solutions in total synthesis.
Foreword written by K. C. Nicolaou.
Every organic chemist has made exactly the experiences described in this book, this topic has never been presented before in such a compact way.
Using major total syntheses the book explains the most varied problems and recommends ways out of such dilemmas: Problems at the start and end of a synthesis, difficult and unexpected reactivities of functional groups, problems due to steric properties and much more.
The result is a true wealth of information for any organic chemist. The essential tool for successful total synthesis.
