Seminars in Organic Synthesis - v. 12

The latest volume in this respected series encompasses subjects as diverse as advanced physical methods in organic synthesis, the reactivity of functionalized carbon-carbon double bonds, heterocycles in medicinal chemistry, stereoselective catalysis and creativity in research. Critical surveys are presented on: total synthesis of natural products; organometallic compiunds in organic synthesis; the introduction and transformation of functional groups; and solid supported synthesis. The accompanying CD-ROM provides pdf files of the articles included in the book. This volume will be an invaluable source for students and researchers in both academia and industry.
