Electroorganic Reduction Synthesis, 2 Vols.

Electroorganic synthesis and its applications under reduction conditions have come to be widely researched covering various areas, both fundamental and industrial, of organic chemistry. Awareness of the versatility and uniqueness of electrolysis procedures in organic synthesis is increasing, and advances in methodology are becoming of general interest among organic chemists.

This two-volume work presents everything one needs to know about modern electroorganic reduction methods. All important organic substance classes like aldehydes, olefins, aromatic compounds, halogenated compounds and many more are covered. Besides numerous modern reaction methods, other important aspects like product selectivity, types of electrolysis cells and effects of additives are mentioned. With its clear structure and focus on synthetic methods it is a soure of high quality information for every chemist working in this field.
