Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis: 14 Volume Set

At last, the long anticipated second edition of the highly successful Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis (EROS) is publishing in print in March 2009. With its wealth of valuable information, excellent editorial leadership and methodical classification, EROS has become the authoritative reference source on reagents and catalysts.
This makes EROS vital reading for everybody working in organic synthesis. It has wide appeal, with relevance not only to Organic Chemists, but also to Inorganic, Physical and Analytical Chemists, Materials Scientists, Chemical Engineers, Biochemists, Medicinal and Pharmaceutical Chemists and Pharmacologists. In short, it is an essential product for all academic and industrial chemistry laboratories and libraries.
COMPREHENSIVE
With its 50,000 reactions and 4,111 reagents, Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis offers readers a substantial wealth of information.
Each entry contains, where available:CAS numbersInChI and InChIKeysAlternative names and structuresDetails on availability and physical properties, including solubility, form in which it’s supplied, purification methods, form obtainable in purification and preparation methodsExtensive reviewsExamples of transformations for each reagent with reaction schemesComparison of one agent’s specific properties with those of others capable of equivalent chemistry, together with reaction schemesStereo–, regio–, and enantio–control propertiesRequired precautions for working with the reagentThe various uses and characteristics of each reagent with illustrative examplesRelated literature
METHODICAL
Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis has been designed and developed by chemists for chemists. It makes it as easy as possible for users to find the most suitable reagents for performing particular reactions. Reagents are arranged in A to Z format while ea ch reagent entry is presented in a uniform style so that the user is provided with a recognizable format and structure.
New in the second edition of Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis:Over 1,000 new reagentsOver 620 updated reagents retaining the original text and references whilst adding additional up–to–date informationNew types of reagents and catalystsIn addition to CAS numbers each article now also includes InChI and InChIKeysA standard citation style in the reference list for each reagentAn author index
