Description

The structure of amino acids and peptides is becoming increasingly important to chemists because of the growing overlap of mainstream organic chemistry with bio-organic and bimochemistry. This introductory text begins with a brief survey of the role and diversity of amino acids, peptides and proteins in nature, and goes on to describe and explain the principal methods of chemical synthesis. With its emphasis on chemical principles and strategies rather than detailed technical matters, this book should be useful to students of chemistry with an interest in this field.

Table of Contents

  • Introduction
  • a-Amino acid synthesis
  • a-Amino protection
  • a-Carboxy protection
  • Peptide bond formation
  • Residue-specific considerations
  • Strategy and tactics
  • Solution peptide synthesis
  • Solid phase peptide synthesis
  • Appendix A Abbreviations and their uses
  • Appendix B Further reading and sources
  • Index
