Advances in Nitrogen Heterocycles, Volume 3

Preface (C.J. Moody).

The activation and manipulation of pyrroles by pentaammineosium (II) (L.M. Hodges, W.D. Harman).

Synthesis of (b)- annelated pyrroles via an acylation approach (E.D. Edstrom).

Applications of iminium cation chemistry to activated indoles (D.StC. Black).

Application of nitrogen ylide cyclizations for organic synthesis (L.S. Bell, A. Padwa).

Synthesis of kainoids and kainoid analogues (M.E. Wood, A.M. Fryer).

This volume contains a range of topics such as the activation and manipulation of pyrroles, the synthesis of annelated pyrroles using acylation reactions and the synthesis of kainoids, a family of highly biologically active nitrogen heterocycles.

For scientists and researchers interested in the field of nitrogen heterocycles.
