Opis

The second edition of Comprehensive Organic Synthesis--winner of the 2015 PROSE Award for Multivolume Reference/Science from the Association of American Publishers--builds upon the highly respected first edition in drawing together the new common themes that underlie the many disparate areas of organic chemistry. These themes support effective and efficient synthetic strategies, thus providing a comprehensive overview of this important discipline. Fully revised and updated, this new set forms an essential reference work for all those seeking information on the solution of synthetic problems, whether they are experienced practitioners or chemists whose major interests lie outside organic synthesis. In addition, synthetic chemists requiring the essential facts in new areas, as well as students completely new to the field, will find Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, Second Edition an invaluable source, providing an authoritative overview of core concepts.

• Winner of the 2015 PROSE Award for Multivolume Reference/Science from the Association of American Publishers
• Contains more than170 articles across nine volumes, including detailed analysis of core topics such as bonds, oxidation, and reduction
• Includes more than10,000 schemes and images
• Fully revised and updated; important growth areas--including combinatorial chemistry, new technological, industrial, and green chemistry developments--are covered extensively

Recenzje

"...the collection's greatest strength: the array of topics presented by subject experts...an important tool for academic and professional chemistry collections...Summing Up: Highly recommended." --Choice

Praise for the 1st Edition:"'I gazed and gazed but little thought, what walth to me the show had brought'. What daffodils did to Wordsworth, this treatise did to me.... This vast undertaking has been supremely well organised, employing internationally renowned synthetic chemists as editors.... This series presents a refreshing overview of modern synthetic methodology and provokes many tantalising questions and thoughts.... Anyone who synthesises organic compounds must have access to the work" --Choice

O autorze

Paul Knochel was born in 1955 in Strasbourg (France). He did his undergraduate studies at the University of Strasbourg (France) and his Ph.D at the ETH-Zürich with Prof. D. Seebach. He spent 4 years at the CNRS at the University Pierre and Marie Curie at Paris with Prof. J.-F. Normant and one year of post-doctoral studies at Princeton University in the laboratory of Prof. M. F. Semmelhack. In 1987, he accepted a position as Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, Michigan. In 1991, he became Full Professor at this University and in 1992, he moved to Philipps-University at Marburg (Germany) as C4-Professor in Organic Chemistry. In 1999, he moved to the Chemistry Department of Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich (Germany). His research interests include the development of novel organometallic reagents and methods for use in organic synthesis, asymmetric catalysis and natural product synthesis.
