Organic Reactions, Volume 49 - Hardcover

Part of a series for organic chemists in industry, this volume presents critical discussions of widely-used organic reactions or particular phases of a reaction. The material is treated from a preparative viewpoint, with emphasis on limitations, interfering influences, effects of structure and the selection of experimental techniques. Numerous detailed procedures illustrate the significant modifications of each method, and tables are included containing all possible examples of the reaction under consideration.
