Reagents for Glycoside, Nucleotide, and Peptide Synthesis

This handbook collects together short, informative articles on approximately 250 of the most widely used reagents in the field, into a single volume. Each of the articles, drawn from the e-EROS database, contains a summary of the most pertinent reactions for every reagent, with references to the original literature. This handbook will have a broad appeal and should find a home in every organic chemistry laboratory and library. It: compiles all the essential reagents for syntheses on and with biomolecules; gives key information on protection, bond formation, and deprotection; is an essential resource for all synthetic chemists working in drug development and medicinal chemistry; and makes use of the leading reagent database e-EROS.
