Microwave Assisted Organic Synthesis
About this book
This book demonstrates the underlying principles of microwave dielectric heating and, by reference to a range of organic reaction types, it’s effective use in synthetic organic chemistry. To illustrate the impact microwave assisted organic synthesis can have on chemical research, case studies drawn mainly from the pharmaceutical industry are presented.
Reviews
'overall the balance of the book was good and I would recommend it to graduate level chemists, experimentalists in synthetic science and chemistry libraries.'
Stephen Caddick, Chemistry World
"Overall, this is a well-written, concise book on this fledgling but fast growing field of microwave-assisted organic synthesis. The book does a good job of showcasing the enormous potential (waiting to be harnessed) of microwave-assisted synthesis ... The book is replete with many good examples of the reactions to which microwave heating has been successfully applied, and the chapters are well referenced ... It will be an important addition to the few books on this relatively new aspect of modern organic synthesis. Students of organic chemistry should find it useful as well."
