To date, the second edition of the Rodd's series consists of 71 volumes and over 30,000 pages. Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds is continuing with a short series of topical volumes on emerging subjects that are not covered in detail in the main volumes. The first two topical volumes will cover organic electrochemistry and asymmetric catalysis. Asymmetric synthesis initiated by metal catalysts is, of course, not a new topic and asymmetric reduction and epoxidation of alkenes, in particular, are major subject areas covered widely in the Supplements to the 2nd Edition...

Hardbound. This volume has its core aspects of the chemistry of pyrrole and pyridine, plus their benzo derivatives and reduced forms. It begins with surveys of the natural occurrence, characterization and synthesis of pyrrolidine and pyrrolizidine alkaloids and progresses on to consider the structures of the new indole alkaloids identified since 1985. Alkaloids of the tropane type and those from plants of the Amaryllidacea family are surveyed next, and a skillfully crafted review of recent work in the porphyrin series is also featured.In the last two chapters the emphasis changes slightly and...

Hardbound. The publication of this volume covers current work on the syntheses and reactions of pyridines, quinolines and isoquinolines. Also included are chapters (chapters 28, 30, 31 and 32) which review recent progress in the chemistry of the pyridine, quinoline and isoquinoline alkaloids. The theoretical aspects of pyridine chemistry, which were covered in a separate chapter (chapter 23) in the 2nd Edition, are now incorporated into a separate single chapter (chapter 24), without division.Recent developments in the chemistry of six-membered heterocycles containing a single phosphorus,...

In this volume, Drs. Parrick and Shaw have upgraded their earlier chapter on pyridazines, cinnolines and Dr Hurst and Dr McCullough have done the same for their chapters on the subjects of pyrimidines and quinazolines and pyrazines, respectively. Dr Bolton has contributed to this series several times before, but not on the subject of phenazine, oxazine and thiazine sulfur dyes. However, his wide experience in heterocyclic chemistry enabled him to analyse recent progress in this area without difficulty and with his customary skill. Professor Johne returns to one of his research interests,...

Hardbound. This volume begins with two chapters concerned with the chemistry of medium and large heterocyclic rings, including lactones and lactams. This work also explores host-guest relationships within macrocycles embodying oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The authors responsible for bringing together recent progress in the chemistry of this wide assembly of compounds are Dr MacBride and his colleagues Drs Grayson and Kelly. Drs Ewing and McKenzie then survey then survey recent advances in purine chemistry and that of the attendant nucleosides. This chapter naturally leads on to a focused survey...
