Description
The preparation of organic compounds is central to many areas of scientific research, from the most applied to the most academic, and is not limited to chemists. Any research which uses new organic chemicals, or those which are not available commercially, will at some time require the synthesis of such compounds. This practical book, covering the most up-to-date techniques commonly used in organic synthesis, is based on the extensive experience of the authors and their association with some of the leading laboratories of synthetic organic chemistry. This book should be of interest to postgraduate, industrial and advanced undergraduate organic chemists. Biologists, biochemists, genetic engineers, materials scientists and polymer researchers in university and industry should find the book a useful source of reference, as should those involved in pharmaceutical, agrochemical and other fine chemicals research.
