-Aminoacid-N-Carboxy-Anhydrides and Related Heterocycles

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the discovery and significance of N-Carboxy-aminoacid-anhydrides (NCAs), this monograph explores their role as intermediates in organic synthesis, particularly in the polymerization process to create polypeptides. The author, Hans R. Kricheldorf, leverages his extensive research background to provide insights into the chemistry of NCAs and related compounds, as well as their applications in pharmaceuticals and synthetic materials. The book is anticipated to appeal to scientists across various disciplines interested in macromolecular chemistry and structure-reactivity relationships.
