Klappentext zu „Natural Products in the Chemical Industry “
Natural Products in the Chemical Industry is not a conventional textbook, but rather an invitation to join an entertaining journey that takes you into the fascinating world of natural products. This book features diverse compound classes from a number of areas: colourants, fragrances and flavourings, amino acids, pharmaceuticals, hormones, vitamins and agrochemicals. Whether you are a teacher or a scholar, an undergraduate or graduate student, a professional chemist in industry or academia, or someone just interested in natural sciences, this book allows you to be inspired and entertained by facts and information along with enjoyable anecdotes, historical, economic, political, biological and social considerations. Experts in the field can have a pleasurable time cruising through captivating synthesis methods, which enable the generation of complex molecules on industrial scale.This book
· deals with the manufacturing of larger quantities of complex molecules (asymmetric and heterocyclic compounds, polycyclic structures, macrocycles and small rings)
· displays all reaction schemes in colour, which makes them easy to read
· highlights aesthetics and elegance in modern industrial organic chemistry

Autoren-Porträt von Bernd Schaefer
Bernd Schaefer studied chemistry in Kaiserslautern and received his PhD for research on metal-catalysed, stereoselective cycloadditions of methylenecyclopropanes to electron-deficient olefins from the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung in Mülheim, Germany. His professional career at BASF covers research and development in the areas of plant protection, pharmaceutical chemistry and fine chemicals. In 2000, Bernd Schaefer was appointed lecturer and in 2009 Honorary Professor at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität in Heidelberg. Besides natural product chemistry, his special areas of interest include catalysis and enantioselective synthesis.

Pressezitat
"Schaefer ... has written an outstanding text for anyone with a chemistry background who enjoys learning about and understanding the connection between the historical and present-day pharmaceutical, fine, and specialty chemical industries. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals/practitioners." (L. J. Liotta, Choice, Vol. 53 (1), September, 2015)"... Die Auswahl umfasst viele der größten Erfolge in der Geschichte der angewandten Naturstoff-Forschung, und der Leser erhält auf diese Weise einen guten Überblick über die Historie und die Bedeutung der Naturstoffe für die menschliche Zivilisation. ... Studierende der Chemie und Pharmazie im leicht fortgeschrittenen Stadium und selbst Wissenschaftler, die fachverwandten Disziplinen angehören, sicherlich über die Lektüre dieses Buchs einen guten Einstieg in diese faszinierende Thematik finden ..." (Frank Surup, Marc Stadler, in: Angewandte Chemie,Jg. 127, Heft 31, Juli 2015) "The author describes the motivations for industrial chemistry, and explains the importance of cost-efficient total syntheses. ... this book is highly recommended ... . We are sure that this book will have a strong impact, considering on the one hand the revival of interest in natural products in the age of multi-resistant human and plant pathogens, and on the other hand the emphasis on bio-economy in various areas of life sciences and biotechnology." (Frank Surup and Marc Stadler, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Vol. 54 (31), July, 2015)
"This book describes natural products chemistry with the eyes of an industrial chemist. ... Each chapter is abundantly illustrated and very agreeable to read. ... The book is very pleasant to read, instructive and very didactic. The study of various retrosynthetic analyses ... will be of great interest to undergraduate students. ... This book should be part of any chemist's library who is interested in natural product
