Multicomponent Reactions in Organic Synthesis [Repost]

Multicomponent reactions (MCR) have emerged as a versatile and powerful methodology for the synthesis of complex molecules with often biologically relevant scaffold structures. Since fewer chemicals and solvents, as well as less energy are required, these reactions represent an environmentally-friendly alternative to standard synthetic protocols in organic chemistry and drug discovery.
Edited by leading experts and with a list of authors reading like a "who's who" in MCR chemistry, this timely work focuses on the latest advances in the field. In addition to carbene-promoted MCRs and frequently applied metal-catalyzed MCRs, it also covers recently developed catalytic enantioselective variants as well as applications in the synthesis of heterocyclic molecules and macrocycles.
A comprehensive overview for every synthetic organic chemist as well as medicinal chemists working in academia and pharmaceutical companies.
