Griesbeck A.G., Mattay J. (Eds.) Synthetic Organic Photochemistry

Marcel Dekker, 2005, 618 pages, ISBN: 082475736XWith contributions from 24 international authorities, Synthetic Organic Photochemistry offers a leading-edge presentation of the most recent and in-demand applications of photochemical methodologies. Outlining a wide assortment of reaction types entailing cycloadditions, cyclizations, isomerizations, rearrangements, and other organic syntheses, this reference offers unmatched coverage of all reactions in the foreground of organic photochemistry and ties in critical considerations that overlap in modern photochemistry and organic chemistry, such as stereoselectivity. Select experimental procedures demonstrate the industrial and academic value of reactions presented in the text.Synthetic Organic Photochemistry
