Saghyan A.S., Langer P. Asymmetric Synthesis of Non-Proteinogenic Amino Acids

Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co., Weinheim, Germany, 2016. — 365 p. — ISBN10: 3527340416Authored by two internationally recognized experts with an excellent track record, this much-needed reference summarizes latest research in the rapidly developing field of stereoselective synthesis of enantiomerically enriched amino acids, particularly of non-proteinogenic origin. It highlights several different catalytic and stoichiometric asymmetric methods for their synthesis and also provides information on origin, biological properties, different synthetic strategies and important applications in medicine and pharmacology.
