Fused Pyranones: Multifaceted Building Blocks for Molecular Diversity covers the synthesis and chemical reactivity of fused pyranone ring systems, such as coumarin, isocoumarin, chromonone, chroman-4-one, and others, as well as their applications in the fields of drug discovery and material sciences. Mechanisms of the chemical reactions are covered, along with the steps to formation of final products. This book is ideal for organic, medicinal and material chemists and researchers working to build target compounds for pharmaceuticals and materials, as well as those working in food supplements, perfumery, and cell and animal imaging.
- Includes various synthetic methodologies for generating molecular diversity
- Covers natural and synthetic products with benzopyranone ring systems, which are used for the treatment of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, ulcers, allergies, asthma, fungal, and bacterial infections, and more
- Discusses applications of these new chemical entities in the fields of drug discovery, food supplements, perfumery, preparation of new organic catalysts, and materials
