An Introduction to Power Electronics

Fluorinated organic compounds are well known for their unusual reactivity but fluorine can also dramatically influence the stereochemical outcome of reactions providing a challenge to organic synthetic chemists. Enantiocontrolled Synthesis of Fluoro-organic Compounds is a comprehensive review of the methods for preparing stereochemically defined fluorine-containing compounds. This is the first book devoted to stereochemical aspects of fluorine chemistry and contains:

• detailed reviews on stereocontrolled synthesis of biologically important compounds
• 21 chapters covering the main areas of asymmetric synthesis and biocatalysis where fluorine plays a key role
• mechanisms and methods for synthesizing fluoro-organic compounds.

Written for professionals involved in organic, physical and organofluorine chemistry, natural product synthesis, biological, pharmaceutical and other life science related industries.
