Beschreibung
Mimicking natural biochemical processes, click chemistry is amodular approach to organic synthesis, joining together smallchemical units quickly, efficiently and predictably. In contrast tocomplex traditional synthesis, click reactions offer highselectivity and yields, near-perfect reliability and exceptionaltolerance towards a wide range of functional groups and reactionconditions. These 'spring loaded' reactions areachieved by using a high thermodynamic driving force, and areattracting tremendous attention throughout the chemical community.Originally introduced with the focus on drug discovery, the concepthas been successfully applied to materials science, polymerchemistry and biotechnology.
The first book to consider this topic, Click Chemistry forBiotechnology and Materials Science examines the fundamentalsof click chemistry, its application to the precise design andsynthesis of macromolecules, and its numerous applications inmaterials science and biotechnology. The book surveys thecurrent research, discusses emerging trends and futureapplications, and provides an important nucleation point forresearch.
Edited by one of the top 100 young innovators with the greatestpotential to have an impact on technology in the 21stcentury according to Technology Review and with contributions frompioneers in the field, Click Chemistry for Biotechnology andMaterials Science provides an ideal reference for anyonewanting to learn more about click reactions.
