Sommario/riassunto

Ireland in Conflict, 1922-1998 sets out the main political, economic and social developments in Ireland, north and south of the border, since the 1922 treaty.This book explains the troubles in their context and examines the underlying tensions which led to prolonged violence after a period of relative civil peace and rising prosperity.Ireland in Conflict discusses:* the Civil War, its legacy for Irish politics and the Boundary Commission* the IRA, Orange Order and the Unionist party* the role of the Catholic Church and the Protestant minority<B

Hederagonic Acid and C−H Activation; Optimization of the Synthetic Sequence -- Final Synthetic Route to Hederagonic Acid -- Experimental Section.

Sommario/riassunto

Christian Knittl-Frank reports on the development of a novel synthetic route to the naturally occurring polyhydroxylated oleanane, hederagonic acid. Polyhydroxylated oleananes are a vast family of naturally occurring triterpenoids with versatile biological activities. A low commercial availability combined with high prices make these molecules interesting targets in natural product synthesis. The developed synthetic approach starts from oleanolic acid, a cheap material that is commercially available in bulk quantities. It features several multi-step one-pot reactions, allowing a minimization of the number of steps and reducing the preparative effort. Importantly, catalytic C–H functionalization was achieved at unusually low temperatures. Hederagonic acid was thus prepared in as little as four steps, resulting in the shortest semisynthesis of this oleanane to date.

Experimental Section Target Groups Scientists and students in the field of organic chemistry, especially natural product synthesis The Author Christian Knittl-Frank is currently pursuing his PhD studies, focusing on natural product synthesis and synthetic methodology, at the Department of Organic Chemistry, University of Vienna, Austria. He is part of the MolTag doctoral program that aims to development new molecular drugs targeting ion channels. .
