This comprehensive lab manual contains step-by-step protocols for orga nozinc compounds. It covers organozinc reagents using classical method s and using active zinc, modern electrolysis, and ultrasound. It also covers organic synthesis, including cyclopropanation reactions, transi tion-metal catalyzed reactions, and the use of organozinc reagents in asymmetric synthesis.

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...
