Description
There is probably no name more closely linked to metathesis than that of Robert H. Grubbs of the California Institute of Technology. His pioneering work has led to the success of this important and fascinating reaction and in this comprehensive three-volume work he presents all its important aspects.
* The standard work on one of the most fascinating reactions in synthesis
* The team of authors reads like a "Who's who" of metathesis
* Clearly divided into catalyst developments, organic synthesis applications and polymer synthesis
* Presents the commercial applications, too
* More than 40 high-quality contributions
* A must-have for every organic and polymer chemist

Person
Robert H. Grubbs received his Ph.D. from Columbia University for work with Ron Breslow. After a postdoctoral year with Jim Collman at Stanford University, he joined the faculty at Michigan State University. In 1978, he moved to the California Institute of Technology, where he is now the Victor and Elizabeth Atkins Professor of Chemistry. Among many other awards he received the Nobel Prize in 2005 for his research on the metathesis reaction. His research interests include polymer chemistry, organometallic catalysis, and development of new synthetic organic methodology.
