Organic Synthesis: State of the Art 2003 - 2005 (Organic Synthesis: State of the Art)

The first in a new series, this book provides chemists an effective, much-needed way to stay abreast of recent developments in organic synthesis. The 103 articles review the leading synthetic procedures developed from 2003 - 2005, discussing their significance and their applications. More than 100 reactions are covered, including Heterocycle Construction by Grubbs Metathesis, Enantioselective C-C Bond Construction, and Organic Reactions in Ionic Liquids. Volume 1 of Organic Synthesis: State of the Art introduces the reader to this new and exciting series. The objective of the series is to focus and review the most important synthetic procedures developed over the last 2 years, and to provide an analysis of the significance and applications of those procedures. The first volume in a new series, Organic Synthesis: State of the Art 2003-2005 pulls together two years' worth of Dr. Taber's popular and highly regarded column, and comprises a concise, extremely useful overview of the key accomplishments in the field of organic synthesis Volume 2 of Organic Synthesis introduces the reader to this new and exciting series. The series reviews the most important synthetic procedures developed over the last 2 years, and provides an analysis of the significance and applications of those procedures.
