Description
This practical, well-organized reference delves deeply intofunctional group transformations, to provide all the detailedinformation that researchers need.
* Topics are organized into the following sections: oxidation,reduction, asymmetric synthesis, and functional groupmanipulations
* Each section includes a description of the functional grouptransformation, the historical perspective, mechanisms, variationsand improvements on the reaction, synthetic utilities andapplications for the reaction, experimental details, and referencesto the primary literature
* Contributors are well-known and respected for their work on thespecific name reactions.
Reviews / Votes
"Unlike many previous books on name reactions, which present manyreactions but treat them superficially, this book provides anexcellent selection of useful name reactions, which have been givenin depth, well-illustrated, instructional, and well-referencedaccounts." (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, February 2008) "Helps you explore how you think, communicate and react,allowing you to change your behaviours and become a more expertprofessional practitioner." (Journal of PerioperativePractice, April 2008) "Reading this book has been enjoyable experience. Again andagain, one comes across surprising reaction possibilities ofwell-known reagents, or some lesser known variants of commontransformations." (Angewandte Chemie) "This book provides an excellent selection of useful namereactions, which have been given in depth, well-illustrated,instructional, and well-referenced accounts."
