Beschreibung

Monosaccharides Their Chemistry and Their Roles in Natural ProductsPeter Collins University of London, UK Robin Ferrier VictoriaUniversity of Wellington, NZ An in-depth text for students startingtheir study of carbohydrate chemistry, Monosaccharides relates thevast field of carbohydrate chemistry to both synthetic organicchemistry and biological processes. The structures and reactions ofmonosaccharides are examined in detail and their applications insynthesis and as biologically active compounds are discussed andexplained at length. This textbook, written by two well-knownexperienced teachers and researchers in carbohydrate chemistry,provides: * up-to-date coverage of this rapidly expanding and developingfield * classification of monosaccharide reactions according to reactionsite * treatment of monosaccharides as organic compounds withrationalized chemistry * more than 1000 references to the primary literature * a discussion of monosaccharides as components of biologicallyactive compounds Monosaccharides will be invaluable for students and lecturers alikein organic, bioorganic and natural products chemistry,biochemistry, glycobiology and molecular biology.
