Addressing a dynamic aspect of organic chemistry, this book describes synthetic strategies and applications for multicomponent reactions – including key routes for synthesizing complex molecules.
• Illustrates the crucial role and the important utility of multicomponent reactions (MCRs) to organic syntheses • Compiles novel and efficient synthetic multicomponent procedures to give readers a complete picture of this class of organic reactions • Helps readers to design efficient and practical transformations using multicomponent reaction strategies • Describes reaction background, applications to synthesize complex molecules and drugs, and reaction mechanisms
