Organic Reactions, Volume 98 Organic Reactions Series

The 98th volume in this series for organic chemists in academia and 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.

SCOTT E. DENMARK is the R. C. Fuson Professor of Chemistry at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In addition to his editor-in-chief role for Organic Reactions, he is an editor for Organic Syntheses and for the Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis, both available from Wiley.
