8-Membered Heterocycle Synthesis focuses on both the new and established methods for the synthesis of various 8-membered heterocycles. 8-membered heterocyclic compounds act as target molecules for a wide range of synthetic studies and are present in a broad range of natural products, showing a wide variety of pharmaceutical and biological properties. Covering an important and rapidly growing branch of heterocyclic chemistry, this book brings together every protocol for the synthesis of 8-membered heterocycles in one place, allowing the reader to see all the possibilities for making a particular compound using one particular reagent. Providing up-to-date and comprehensive information about the synthesis of medium-ring heterocycles and the latest information on this fast-moving field, with easy access to the synthetic protocols for different 8-membered heterocycles, case studies, and application, this book will be essential reading for students, pharmacologists, biochemists, organic and medicinal chemists, researchers, and academic professionals. Covers the different methodologies for the synthesis of eight-membered heterocycles Includes summary schemes for each type of heterocycle, giving an overview of all the reactants that can be used, and the experimental conditions Includes discussion of the applications of eight-membered heterocycles

Four-Membered Heterocycle Synthesis offers a comprehensive approach to these unstable organic compounds, providing a systematic introduction to the synthesis and reactions of all common four-membered heterocycles and illustrating different methods to prepare specific four-membered heterocycles. Four-membered heterocyclic compounds are known as a class of unstable organic compounds because of their strain characteristics, which make them very beneficial as precursors for the formation of a broad range of complex heterocyclic molecules and for synthetic elaboration. Provides a systematic introduction to the synthesis and reactions of all common four-membered heterocycles Highlights different methods to prepare specific 4-membered heterocycles Analyzes several types and families of compounds, with a large set of recent examples in the field
