Ethers and crown ethers are important structural parts of many man-made or natural organic materials with medicinal, agrochemical or technological attributes. In recent years, extensive studies have been conducted for developing novel ether synthesis methods. This book summarizes recent advances in synthesizing dialkyl, alkyl aryl, diaryl, cyclic, and crown ethers. It also discusses their substantial applications in various fields such as organic synthesis, ionic liquids, protecting groups, photoswitchable catalysis, phase transfer catalysts, solvents, biological functionality, anticancer properties and antimicrobial effects, drug delivery, and biofuels. Providing an invaluable reference for undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers interested in organic chemistry, it also contributes to the literature for chemical researchers working in industry.
Organic compounds containing amino groups are one of the most important classes of chemicals in both academia and industry. This class of materials is a very important structural motif in organic synthesis due to its widespread applications in natural products, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. This book is a concise overview of modern approaches to N-alkylation and N-arylation of primary, secondary and tertiary amines using alkylating and arylating reagents with amino sources found in both basic and applied chemical research. The work also discusses key examples of amine synthesis from a sustainable perspective, using deep eutectic solvents and the application of amines in different areas. It is an ideal reference for advanced and postgraduate students as well as academic and industrial chemists working in organic, natural product, catalytic, medicinal, and polymer chemistry.
