This book provides an introduction to terpenoid chemistry, concentrating on the lower terpenoids, but the basic principies taught are also the foundation for the chemistry of the higher terpenoids. Coverage includes: the biogénesis of terpenoids; some of the history of the field; the principies of structural determination; and the importance of stereochemistry and stereoselective synthesis. Carbocation chemistry is introduced, as are the principies of total and partial synthesis. Finally, industrial chemistry (both discovery chemistry and chemical process development) is discussed, using the volatile terpenoids of perfumery to ¡Ilústrate basic concepts. Ideal as both an introduction to terpenoid chemistry and as a refresher course, A Fragrant Introduction to Terpenoid Chemistry, with its real-life problems and appreciation of the relevance of chemistry to everyday life, will prove invaluable to students, lecturers and industrialists alike UR - https://www.cicy.mx/sitios/sib/doctoelectronico/8027.pdf ER -
