The didactic presentation of the material makes this book an essential bench-top tool not only for specialists in organic chemistry, but also for students and all those involved in the preparation of organic molecules. Key Features: A critical survey of the most used protecting groups, as used by organic chemists Organization based on functional groups: hydroxyl ; diol; carbonyl; carboxyl; amine Special emphasis placed on deprotection conditions applied to complex structures where selectivity is a prime issue Transformations accompanied by key experimental details Examples from the recent literature span a wide domain of organic synthesis Over 500 schemes aid visual retrieval End-of-chapter list reviews which amplify topics covered.
