Blurb

Organized into 10 chapters, Modern Organic Synthesis covers key concepts that include retrosynthesis, conformational analysis, and functional group transformations as well as presents the latest developments in organometallic chemistry and C C bond formation. The new edition thoroughly updates the material, examples, and literature references.

Continuing the legacy of its innovative predecessor, this second edition is designed for senior undergraduate and beginning graduate students to provide them with a necessary background to begin research in either an industry or academic environment.

The authors, all of whom are experienced researchers in organic chemistry, have selected and present the modern techniques and methods likely to be encountered in a synthetic project with examples based on applicability, versatility, and selectivity.
