Named Organic Reactions

This Second edition contains consise information on 134 carefully chosen named organic reactions -- the standard set of undergraduate and graduate synthetic organic chemistry courses. Each reaction is detailed with clearly drawn mechanisms, references from the primary literature, and well--written accounts covering the mechanical aspects of the reactions, and the details of side reactions and substrate limitations. For the 2nd edition the complete text has been revised and updated, and four new reactions have been added: Baylis--Hillmann Reaction, Sonogashira Reaction, Pummerer Reaction, and the Swern Oxidation und Cyclopropanation. An essential text for students preparing for exams in organic chemistry.

"!the clarity of the text and the extensive coverage would make this an excellent book for a graduate student or upper level chemistry major. Practicing organic chemists!might also find it a worthy addition to their personal libraries." (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, January 26, 2006) "!an indispensable resource!the essential nature of each of the reactions addressed in the book is presented in sufficient detail!" (Journal of Chemical Education, December 2005) "This book is an essential guide to named organic reactions for chemistry students, organic chemists, and chemists in general." (Chemical Educator, May/June 2005)
