The autobiography of a three-time Nobel Prize winner in chemistry. Emphasizes his discoveries in diazo compounds, benzene chemistry, electrolytic reactions, and cycloadditions, and his career as chair of organic chemistry at the University of Munich. Huisgen's research made the Munich laboratory one of the foremost German schools in physical organic chemistry and reaction mechanisms. Huisgen also discusses his early years in Hitler's Germany and his family life. Includes numerous bandw photos. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
This Special Issue came together thanks to contributions from friends and colleagues of Prof. Bernd Giese on behalf of his 80th birthday on 2 June 2020. Reflecting on the varied interests of Bernd in all areas of chemistry, this issue contains work, including historical work, on inorganic coordination chemistry, nanomaterials, theory, and organic and radical chemistry—Bernd’s core expertise. It is wonderful that so many different publications came together from all over the world, as both review articles and original contributions, making this Special Issue worthwhile reading.
Most current state-of-the-art overview of this important class of compounds, encompassing many new and emerging applications The number of articles on organic azides continues to increase tremendously; on average, there are more than 1000 new publications a year Covers basic chemistry as well as state-of-the-art applications in life science and materials science World-ranked authors describe their own research in the wider context of azide chemistry Includes a chapter on safe synthesis and handling (azides can decompose explosively)
Provides the background, tools, and models required to understand organic synthesis and plan chemical reactions more efficiently Knowledge of physical chemistry is essential for achieving successful chemical reactions in organic chemistry. Chemists must be competent in a range of areas to understand organic synthesis. Organic Chemistry provides the methods, models, and tools necessary to fully comprehend organic reactions. Written by two internationally recognized experts in the field, this much-needed textbook fills a gap in current literature on physical organic chemistry. Rigorous yet straightforward chapters first examine chemical equilibria, thermodynamics, reaction rates and mechanisms...
Dipolar cycloaddition reactions have found many useful applications in chemistry, particularly with respect to the synthesis of compounds with new chiral centers. Synthetic Applications of 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition Chemistry Toward Heterocycles and Natural Products updates the popular 1984 edition, featuring the advances made over the past twenty years and focusing on synthetic applications.
Advances in Asymmetric Synthesis
Successful completion of postgraduate studies, especially PhD, and career advancement in academia strongly depend on the ability to publish scientific papers or books and attract research grants. However, many chemical scientists find preparing scientific papers and research grant and book proposals difficult; partly because of insufficient training in writing and partly because there are few practical books to enable them to learn the art. This step-by-step practical guide is intended mainly for postgraduate students and early career researchers in chemical science and the libraries that serve them but will also be useful to other scientists. Key Features: Improves the reader’s chances of getting their manuscript published in chemistry journals. Increases the likelihood of winning research grants in chemistry. Takes a “lead by the hand” approach. Contains chapters on the preparation of graphical abstracts and research highlights. Uses sketches and other illustration styles to aid mental visualization of concepts. Contains practical examples taken from published papers and successful research grant proposals.
Control over macromolecular architecture and resulting material properties has been a central goal of polymer chemistry. There has been much interest in developing new synthetic routes to prepare smart materials with novel compositions and topologies for various applications. The considerable progress in the metal mediated macromolecular engineering over the past decade has had a major impact on the development of well-defined macromolecular architectures and the synthesis of smart materials. Particularly, remarkable strong developments have been observed for the synthesis of smart materials via four metal mediated macromolecular engineering techniques; Anionic, ROMP, ATRP and Click Chemistr...
The 94th volume in this series for organic chemists in industry presents critical discussions of widely used organic reactions or particular phases of a reaction. The material is treated from a preparative viewpoint, with emphasis on limitations, interfering influences, effects of structure and the selection of experimental techniques. The work includes tables that contain all possible examples of the reaction under consideration. Detailed procedures illustrate the significant modifications of each method.
