Carbohydrates
Closing a gap in the literature, this comprehensive book presents the utility of carbohydrate derivatives as chiral auxiliaries, reagents, complex ligands and organocatalysts, together with details of their preparation, as well as their successful application in stereoselective synthesis. Divided into four parts: * Carbohydrate Auxiliaries * Carbohydrate Reagents * Carbohydrate Ligands * Carbohydrate Organocatalysts It is an indispensable source for every organic chemist.
Ideas in Chemistry and Molecular Sciences
Written by some of the most talented young chemists in Europe, this text covers most of the groundbreaking issues in chemistry. It provides an account of the latest research results in European chemistry based on a selection of leading young scientists participating in the 2008 European Young Chemists Award competition. The contributions range from self-organization to new catalytic synthetic methodologies to organocatalysis. In addition, the authors provide a current overview of their field of research and a preview of future directions. For organic, catalytic, natural products and biochemists.
Classics in Total Synthesis
K.C. Nicolaou - Winner of the Nemitsas Prize 2014 in Chemistry This book is a must for every synthetic chemist. With didactic skill and clarity, K. C. Nicolaou and E. Sorensen present the most remarkable and ingenious total syntheses from outstanding synthetic organic chemists. To make the complex strategies more accessible, especially to the novice, each total synthesis is analyzed retrosynthetically. The authors then carefully explain each synthetic step and give hints on alternative methods and potential pitfalls. Numerous references to useful reviews and the original literature make this book an indispensable source of further information. Special emphasis is placed on the skillful use of graphics and schemes: Retrosynthetic analyses, reaction sequences, and stereochemically crucial steps are presented in boxed sections within the text. For easy reference, key intermediates are also shown in the margins. Graduate students and researchers alike will find this book a gold mine of useful information essential for their daily work. Every synthetic organic chemist will want to have a copy on his or her desk.
Tandem Organic Reactions
The importance of tandem reactions is evident--besides their pragmatic value, they have an aesthetic appeal. The author presents a survey of these reactions that will rivet the attention of numerous chemists to their merits and utility as well as stimulate design and discovery of new sets of tandem reactions. Coverage includes Aldol condensation, Michael Reaction, Dieckmann cyclization, thermal and free radical processes, stitching reactions and much more.
Hanging on
Wry, laconic and self-deprecating, Martin Boysen's 'Hanging On' is an insider's account of British climbing's golden age.
Rocks Around the World
With over 140 full-color photos, this book illustrates the celebration of free climbing by two of the sport's greatest exponents. Glowacz and Wiesmeier demonstrate state-of-the-art techniques in the world's premier climbing areas, capturing the awesome majesty of peaks on four continents as well as their harrowing experiences among them.
Composer Genealogies
Functioning as its own fully cross-referenced index, this volume lists composers and their dates, followed by their teachers and their notable students. A short introduction lays out the parameters by which composers were selected and provides a survey of the literature available for further study.
Exploring Loyalty
There is hardly any other concept that is more useful to understand the stability and transformation of political systems than loyalty. Loyalty provides a fresh perspective on political cultures of past and present as well as on political change. Although in the new history of emotions and political culture, loyalty is one perspective among many others such as trust, allegiance, solidarity, patriotism or identity, it stands out for a number of reasons. First, it addresses the multi-tiered, procedural and multi-polar character of societal and communal relationships. Second, and more importantly, it is sensitive to both, their horizontal and vertical settings. This volume endeavours to explore loyalties in the history of the East and Central European regions. Encompassing the 19th and 20th centuries and comparing the Russian and the Habsburg Empires on the one hand, and the interwar and socialist period that followed their collapse on the other, the authors focus on national, confessional, political, or military loyalties.
Labor and Product Market Reforms and External Imbalances: Evidence from Advanced Economies
We explore the impact of major labor and product market reforms on current account dynamics using a new “narrative” database of major changes in employment protection for regular workers and product market regulation for non-manufacturing industries covering 26 advanced economies over the past four decades. Our main finding is that product market deregulation is associated with a weakening of the current account, while labor market deregulation is associated with an improvement. These effects are transitory and driven by both saving and investment responses. Labor and product market reforms both have a more positive impact on the current account balance when implemented under weak macroeconomic conditions. Our results are broadly consistent with predictions from recent DSGE models with endogenous producer entry and labor market frictions.
