Scientists and researchers in academia and the vast chemical and electrochemical fields will delight in reading this ready reference and textbook which covers the essence of electroorganic reactions from a synthetic perspective. The author gives a well-organized and succinct view of the many ways in which the electrochemical method of synthesis may be used as a valuable adjunct to conventional chemical (thermal or catalytic) methodology.
The five chapters cover 1) a synoptic introduction to organic electrochemistry, 2) anodic and 3) cathodic reactions of synthetic interest, 4) indirect...
