Nitrile Oxides, Nitrones, And Nitronates In Organic Synthesis: Novel Strategies In Synthesis, Second Edition

This book covers strategies currently used in the preparation and use of nitrile oxides, nitrones, and nitronates in organic synthesis. With contributions from leading experts in the field, it presents information on factors governing the stability of these compounds, and their synthesis, properties, and applications. Coverage encompasses specific transformation of unstable nitrile oxides, nitrones, and nitronates in the absence of other reagents. The book will be useful as a reference for professionals in organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry in academia, government, and industry, including pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, agrochemicals, and biotech. It can also serve as a text for undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students studying organic synthesis. Feuer is retired from Purdue University.
