Opis

The organic chemistry of phosphorus covers compounds containing functional groups with carbon-phosphorus bonds, as well as organic esters of inorganic phosphorus acids. This is a survey of most of the important phosphorus-containing functional groups and covers areas of interest in research, such as unusual co-ordination states, heterocycles, applications of 31P-NMR and other spectroscopic methods. It includes representative methods of synthesis, plus references to detailed synthetic procedures. It also presents electronic mechanisms and reactive intermediates where established and contains references to important review articles and literature.
