Beschreibung

Science of Synthesis provides a critical review of the synthetic methodology developed from the early 1800s to date for the entire field of organic and organometallic chemistry. As the only resource providing full-text descriptions of organic transformations and synthetic methods as well as experimental procedures, Science of Synthesis is therefore a unique chemical information tool. Over 1000 world-renowned experts have chosen the most important molecular transformations for a class of organic compounds and elaborated on their scope and limitations. The systematic, logical and consistent organization of the synthetic methods for each functional group enables users to quickly find out which methods are useful for a particular synthesis and which are not. Effective and practical experimental procedures can be implemented quickly and easily in the lab.// The content of this e-book was originally published in November 2007.

Leseprobe

Science of Synthesis

Science of Synthesis is the authoritative and comprehensive reference work for the entire field of organic and organometallic synthesis.

Science of Synthesis presents the important synthetic methods for all classes of compounds and includes:

Methods critically evaluated by leading scientists

Background information and detailed experimental procedures

Schemes and tables which illustrate the reaction scope

Preface

As our understanding of the natural world increases, we begin to understand complex phenomena at molecular levels. This level of understanding allows for the design of molecular entities for functions ranging from material science to biology. Such design requires synthesis and, as the structures increase in complexity as a necessity for specificity, puts increasing demands on the level of sophistication of the synthetic methods. Such needs stimulate the improvement of existing methods and, more importantly, the development of new methods. As scientists confront the synthetic problems posed by the molecular targets, they require access to a source of reliable synthetic information. Thus, the need for a new, comprehensive, and critical treatment of synthetic chemistry has become apparent. To meet this challenge, an entirely new edition of the esteemed reference work Houben–Weyl Methods of Organic Chemistry will be published starting in the year 2000.

To reflect the new broader need and focus, this new edition has a new title, Science of Synthesis, Houben–Weyl Methods of Molecular Transformations. Science of Synthesis will benefit from more than 90 years of experience and will continue the tradition of excellence in publishing synthetic chemistry reference works. Science of Synthesis will be a balanced and critical reference work produced by the collaborative efforts of chemists, from both industry and academia, selected by the editorial board. All published results from journals, books, and patent literature from the early 1800s until the year of publication will be considered by our authors, who are among the leading experts in their field. The 48 volumes of Science of Synthesis will provide chemists with the most reliable methods to solve their synthesis problems. Science of Synthesis will be updated periodically and will become a prime source of information for chemists in the 21st century.

Science of Synthesis will be organized in a logical hierarchical system based on the target molecule to be synthesized. The critical coverage of methods will be supported by information intended to help the user choose the most suitable method for their application, thus providing a strong foundation from which to develop a successful synthetic route. Within each category of product, illuminating background information such as history, nomenclature, structure, stability, reactivity, properties, safety, and environmental aspects will be discussed along with a detailed selection of reliable methods. Each method and variation will be accompanied by reaction schemes, tables of examples, experimental procedures, and a background discussion of the scope and limitations of the reaction described.

The policy of the editorial board is to make Science of Synthesis the ultimate tool for the synthetic chemist in the 21st century.

We would like to thank all of our authors for submitting contributions of such outstanding quality, and, also for the dedication and commitment they have shown throughout the entire editorial process.

Structure Index

This index comprises a list of cyclic key structures, derived from organometallics.

To use this index you first need to identify the following four characteristics for the ring system you are interested in:

whether the system is monocyclic, bicyclic, etc. (see page header)

the ring size i.e. 3-membered, 4-membered, etc. (see left-hand column)

the number of heteroatoms within the ring system (see left-hand column)

heteroatoms are prioritized in the following order:

main-group elements: (O, S, Se, Te, N, P, As, Sb, Bi)

main-group metals: (Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, B, Al, Ga, In, Tl, Mg)

transition, lanthanide, and actinide metals

Having identified the ring system of interest, please refer to the number beneath the structure in order to determine the relevant volume number (small and bold) and page number within the series.
