Handbook of C-H Transformations 2 vols

Here, for the first time, the whole range of the functionalization of CH-bonds in one practical handbook. Throughout the more than 60 chapters the focus is on topicality and practicability, with all aspects presented in a compact and consistent way. Topics span modern catalysts for Friedel-Crafts type reactions to transition metal catalysts for the oxofunctionalization, via new methods for radicalic halogenation to domino processes by catalytic ortho metalation. Renowned for his research as well as for his excellent articles and reviews, Gerald Dyker provides in these two volumes reliable and typical experimental procedures, making this a true source of high quality information, and a must for every organic chemist.
