摘要: This chapter focuses on the increasing number of protocols and procedures, reported in literature since 1995, that have been utilized or developed for synthesis carboxylic acids. It addresses not only large additional general methods, example, hydrolysis esters, nitriles, di- trihalides as well carbonation organometallic species oxidation protocols, but also novel methods alkanoic acids, haloalkanoic oxygen-, sulfur-substituted The racemic chiral nonracemic amino acids nitrogen-substituted via carbonylation reviewed. Important new developments toward α,β-unsaturated homo- heteroaromatic are included. Since publication COFGT (1995) immense utilizing whole-cell purified enzymes synthetic transformations occurred, and, therefore, a significant examples pertinent to use
