Editorial Reviews

Review

"This text will be of interest to biochemists and pharmaceutical researchers." (The Catalyst, January 2007)

"…a highly readable introduction to this creative chemical discipline…fills a critical gap in the literature of bioorganic/supramolecular chemistry." (Journal of the American Chemical Society, April 12, 2006)

"The book is a very nice addition to our understanding of artificial enzymes." (Angewandte Chemie International Edition)

Product Description

This first book on this fascinating topic is edited by one of today's most famous and internationally respected organic chemists, renowned for his pioneering synthesis of the cyclopropenyl cation.
For his part, Ronald Breslow has brought together leading scientists in this expanding area to provide a novel overview of protein-, cyclodextrin-, metal- and porphyrin-based artificial enzymes as well as enzyme-like polymers and dendrimers.
A must for all scientists interested in this emerging field.
