State-of-the-science methods, synthetic routes, and
strategies to construct aromatic rings

The development of new reactions for the synthesis of aromatic
compounds is a highly active research area in organic synthesis,
providing new functional organic materials, functional reagents,
and biologically active compounds. Recently, significant advances
in transition-metal-mediated reactions have enabled the efficient
and practical construction of new aromatic rings with useful
properties and applications. This book draws together and reviews
all the latest discoveries and methods in transition-metal-mediated
reactions, offering readers promising new routes to design and
construct complex aromatic compounds.

Integrating metal catalysis with aromatic compound synthesis,
Transition-Metal-Mediated Aromatic Ring Construction offers
a practical guide to the methods, synthetic routes, and strategies
for constructing aromatic compounds. The book's five parts
examine:

* [2+2+2], [2+2+1], and related cycloaddition reactions

* [4+2], [3+2], and related cycloaddition reactions

* Electrocyclization reactions

* Coupling and addition reactions

* Other important transformations, including methathesis
reactions and skeletal rearrangement reactions

Edited by Ken Tanaka, an internationally recognized expert in
the field of transition-metal catalysis, the book features authors
who are leading pioneers and researchers in synthetic reactions.
Their contributions reflect a thorough review and analysis of the
literature as well as their own firsthand laboratory experience
developing new aromatic compounds.

All chapters end with a summary and outlook, setting forth new
avenues of research and forecasting new discoveries. There are also
references at the end of each chapter, guiding readers to important
original research reports and reviews.

In summary, Transition-Metal-Mediated Aromatic Ring
Construction offers synthetic chemists a promising new avenue
for the development of important new aromatic compounds with a
broad range of applications.
