Understanding and Manipulating Excited-State Processes
A state-of-the-art review of original research, this book includes discussions of intramolecular photoadditoin of nucleophiles, electrophiles, and radical species to the activated aromatic ring; new methods for regio-, anantio-, and diastereoselective photooxygenations involving singlet oxygen mechanisms; and applications of microreactors for photochemical synthesis of large-ring compounds, photochemical rearrangement, photocycloaddition, and chiral photochemical synthesis. It covers the role of layered inorganic solids in the construction, characterization, and analysis of supramolecular assemblies of metal ions, molecules, metal complexes, and proteins, and more.
Thailand's Secret War
This book is an absorbing account of secret operations and political intrigue in wartime Thailand. During World War II Free Thai organisations co-operated with Allied intelligence agencies in an effort to rescue their nation from the consequences of its 1941 alliance with Japan. They largely succeeded despite internal differences and the conflicting interests and policies of their would-be-allies, China, Great Britain and the United States. London's determination to punish Thailand placed the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) at a serious disadvantage in its rivalry with the American Office of Strategic Services (OSS). The US State Department, in contrast, strongly supported OSS operations in Thailand, viewing them as a vehicle for promoting American political and economic influence in mainland Southeast Asia. Declassification of the records of the OSS and the SOE permits full revelation of this complex story of heroic action and political intrigue.
The Double [3+2] Photocycloaddition Reaction
Jason Woolford's thesis describes for the first time, a double [3+2] photocycloaddition of alkenes onto aromatic rings. Modern synthetic chemistry relies on the ability of researchers to uncover new and more efficient ways of creating highly complex structures. This work describes a novel, environmentally friendly photochemical step that converts in one pot, trivial starting materials into otherwise difficult to construct fenstrane frameworks. The rigid cores of these frameworks have significant potential in drug design. Moreover, the novelty of this work overtakes many other methods for the creation of chiral centres. No less than seven chiral centres are created in the photochemical step together with the formation of four carbon-carbon bonds and multifused rings. Jason's innovative work has been the subject of several publications in peer-reviewed journals.
Anaesthesia
This recent publication is a unique contribution to the history of specialized medicine in Hong Kong. Written by two of Hong Kong's foremost practitioners and teachers of anaesthesiology, the work details the history of this specialty in Hong Kong, including early pioneers, the development of the Society of Anaesthetists, the teaching of anaesthesiology at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, the establishment of the Hong Kong College of Anaesthesiologists, and recent developments in clinical anaesthesiology. A wide range of appendices, including lists of successive office-holders of the specialist societies, lists of scientific meetings relating to anaesthesiology held in Hong Kong, and over 30 pages of plates featuring prominent personages in the field of anaesthesiology, ensure that this will remain a landmark volume in recording the development of anaesthesiology in Hong Kong.
Tetrahedron Reports on Organic Chemistry
Tetrahedron Reports on Organic Chemistry, Volume 4 contains 10 tetrahedron reports on organic chemistry with report numbers 31-40. Some reports focus on organopalladium intermediates in organic synthesis; the synthesis of insect sex pheromones; and boraheterocycles via cyclic hydroboration. Other tetrahedron reports center on synthesis of polyketide-type aromatic natural products by biogenetically modeled routes; Ei reaction of sulphilimines and related compounds; strategies in optical resolutions; and the diradical mechanism for 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions and related thermal pericyclic reactions.
