Title: Dehydration reactions in polyfunctional natural products
20.08.2020 |
Short summary:
Nature inspires the direct and selective dehydration of alcohols in complex molecules and demonstrates a potential that has not yet been realized by chemical methodology.
We present challenging substrates for direct and selective dehydration reactions and argue that chemical methodology solving the challenges presented will be valued by synthetic and natural product chemists alike.
