Recent Advances in High Pressure Organic Synthesis

Abstract
High pressure chemistry is now recognized as a powerful method to achieve synthetic organic reactions which are not readily accessible by usual means. This article deals with the recent developments made in this laboratory such as 1) epoxide ring-opening reactions, 2) Michael addition reaction, 3) nucleophilic aromatic substitution, and 4) several condensation reactions. The application of this technique to natural product synthesis, asymmetric synthesis, and the molecular design of new functional materials is also discussed.
