Would you like me to make this version more academic (CV-style) or more narrative (profile-style) for use in websites or conference booklets?

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Synthesis of Azetidines from Imines by Cycloaddition Reactions provides comprehensive and detailed information about azetidine ring synthesis from imines by cycloaddition reactions, a process which presents challenges for medicinal chemists. An important contribution to science since their discovery over a hundred years ago, azetidines are organic compounds that occupy a basic position in pharmaceutical chemistry due to their biological activities. They are the fundamental skeleton of several antibiotics, probiotics, and alkaloids.

Readers will be able to quickly assess the possible synthetic approaches and to evaluate whether preparation of a four-membered nitrogen containing ring is reasonable. This book is an important resource for students and researchers of synthetic and organic chemistry, as well as academics and industry professionals working in the fields of catalytic and organic chemistry.
