Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Enzyme

Henry Rapoport spends much of his time researching Organic chemistry, Stereochemistry, Amino acid, Aliphatic compound and Enantiomer. His is doing research in Bicyclic molecule, Reagent, Ether, Iminium and Decarbonylation, both of which are found in Organic chemistry. His Stereochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Enantiomeric excess and Alkyl.

Henry Rapoport combines subjects such as Racemization and Peptide with his study of Amino acid. The concepts of his Aliphatic compound study are interwoven with issues in Hydrogen, Medicinal chemistry, Aminoketone, Diamine and Stereoselectivity. His Enantiomer study combines topics in areas such as Yield, Alkaloid, Pyroglutamic acid, Glutamic acid and Peptide bond.

His most cited work include:

  • Synthesis of 4-substituted prolines as conformationally constrained amino acid analogs (176 citations)
  • Psoralen-deoxyribonucleic acid photoreaction. Characterization of the monoaddition products from 8-methoxypsoralen and 4,5'8-trimethylpsoralen. (171 citations)
  • Synthesis of optically pure pipecolates from L-asparagine. Application to the total synthesis of (+)-apovincamine through amino acid decarbonylation and iminium ion cyclization (168 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Amino acid and Bicyclic molecule. The Enantiomer research Henry Rapoport does as part of his general Stereochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Alpha, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His research links Thebaine with Organic chemistry.

His research in Thebaine is mostly concerned with Codeinone. His Alkylation research extends to the thematically linked field of Amino acid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (40.73%)
  • Organic chemistry (39.69%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (9.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1990-2010)?

  • Stereochemistry (40.73%)
  • Organic chemistry (39.69%)
  • Alkylation (4.44%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Alkylation, Amino acid and Enantiomer. His Stereochemistry research includes themes of Ketone and Enantioselective synthesis. His Organic chemistry study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Peptide.

His study explores the link between Alkylation and topics such as Ether that cross with problems in Enol. His studies deal with areas such as Sulfide, Decarboxylation and Peptidomimetic as well as Amino acid. His work investigates the relationship between Enantiomer and topics such as Glutamic acid that intersect with problems in Iminium, Decarbonylation and Alkaloid.

Between 1990 and 2010, his most popular works were:

  • Selective Removal of an N-BOC Protecting Group in the Presence of a tert-Butyl Ester and Other Acid-Sensitive Groups (89 citations)
  • Thiopeptide Synthesis. alpha-Amino Thionoacid Derivatives of Nitrobenzotriazole as Thioacylating Agents. (81 citations)
  • Synthesis of enantiomerically pure diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid analogs. L-Phenylalanine as the educt for substitution at the central acetic acid (75 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Enzyme

Henry Rapoport mostly deals with Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Alkylation, Enantiomer and Amino acid. He mostly deals with Intramolecular force in his studies of Stereochemistry. Organic chemistry is frequently linked to Peptide in his study.

His Alkylation research incorporates themes from Wittig reaction, Phosphorus, Cyclopentene, Computational chemistry and Coupling. Henry Rapoport has researched Enantiomer in several fields, including Indolizidine and Aspartic acid. His research integrates issues of Yield, Sulfide, Decarboxylation, Peptidomimetic and Amine gas treating in his study of Amino acid.
