Publisher's Synopsis
The last two decades have seen a rapid growth in the synthetic processing of both simple and complex molecules aimed at meeting the needs of society in all aspects of life. The means of achieving this has been through the use of new enantioselective and catalytic processes, not only in material science but also in the creative synthesis of complex molecules. This book is an up-to-date overview of what is happening in the world of organic chemistry and will be a valuable tool for synthetic organic chemists.
