Diazo Chemistry (VCH)
1 total work
Diazo compounds play an important role as reaction intermediates and reagents in organic synthesis. This book is a critical, well- referenced and eminently readable introduction to the chemistry of aliphatic, inorganic and organometallic diazo compounds. It provides well-researched information that could otherwise be obtained only by costly and time-consuming searches of multi-volume treatises and the original literature. Topics covered in depth include: - preparation and structure of diazo compounds - kinetics and mechanism of diazotizations - reactions of diazo compounds - applications in organic synthesis - metal complexes with diazonium and diazo compounds Many tables and reaction schemes as well as copious literature citations make this book a highly valuable reference work for synthetic organic chemists, inorganic chemists, organometallic chemists and industrial chemists. Already available: Volume 1 of Diazo Chemistry covering aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds.
