Description
* Most current state-of-the-art overview of this important class of compounds, encompassing many new and emerging applications* The number of articles on organic azides continues to increase tremendously; on average, there are more than 1000 new publications a year* Covers basic chemistry as well as state-of-the-art applications in life science and materials science* World-ranked authors describe their own research in the wider context of azide chemistry* Includes a chapter on safe synthesis and handling (azides can decompose explosively)
Reviews / Votes
"This book is timely and important - the first devoted entirely to azides to appear in 26 years... The editors are to be congratulated for attracting so many experts to produce an excellent work in a timely fashion that should find a place in all laboratories." (JACS, 2010)More details
