Radicals in Organic Synthesis

Over the past few years, radical chemistry has witnessed a rapid development, with the result, for example, that new methods for producing radicals now allow the targeted use of these reactive intermediate stages in organic synthesis. This two-volume work is an account of the progress being made. The first volume covers basic methodologies for successfully carrying out radical reactions, whereas the second volume concentrates on applications for radicals in synthesis. The vast amount of information contained in this work makes it an essential reference for every organic chemist working in industry and academia.
