Simpson Cumulative Index of Authors, Volumes 1–60 Pages 329-340 Cumulative Index of Titles, Volumes 1–60 Pages 341-352 Cumulative Subject Index, Volumes 55–60 Pages 353-462 Established in 1960, Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry is the definitive serial in the area-one of great importance to organic chemists, polymer chemists, and most biological scientists. Volume 60 contains a cumulative subject index covering Volumes 55 through 60. Intended for organic chemists, this volume follows the format of previous volumes and provides up-to-date information on selected areas of heterocyclic chemistry. The high carbon-fluorine bond energy renders the fluorine substituent a bad leaving group in SN2 reactions and resistant to many metabolic tranformations.
