Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods V 4

"Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods Volume III" is written by Louis S. Hegedus & Leroy G. Wade, Jr. It presents the new synthetic methods for preparation of monofunctional compounds for 1974, 1975, and 1976. Sections correspond to most of the possible interconversions between the major functional groups. In addition, the volume contains examples of new methods of preparation of defunctional compounds formed from pairs of the major functional groups. 1977 (0 471--36752--4) 495 pages. "Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods Volume II" is written by Ian T. Harrison & Shuyen Harrison. " A valuable supplement to their earlier volume. Not only does it contain many additional examples of methods of preparing monofunctional compounds, but it also contains a new section covering preparation of defunctional compounds. particularly useful for the synthetic organic chemist who wishes to locate fairly quickly a recipe for a simple functional group transformation." - "Laboratory Practice" 1974 (0 471--35551--8) 437 pages. "Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods Volume I" is written by Ian T. Harrison & Shuyen Harrison.
It is a compilation of organic functional group transformations, including 3000 synthetic methods presented in the form of reactions with leading references. It is divided into sections corresponding to all possible interconversions between the major functional groups: acetylene, carboxylic acid, alcohol, etc. Other parts deal with the protection of carboxylic acids, alcohols, aldehydes, amines, and ketones. "A very usable volume deserves a Wide sale." - "Journal of the American Chemical Society" 1971 (0 471--35550--X) 529 pages.
