This volume is a tribute to Professor Dr Da Ruan, who passed away suddenly on July 31, 2011, aged 50. The flood of emails that spread throughout the fuzzy logic research community with the tragic news was
Functional group transformations form the heart of organic synthesis, with one functional group present in the starting material transformed into a different functional group in the product. This book includes oxidations, reductions, asymmetric transforma...
This book differs from others on name reactions in organic chemistry by focusing on their mechanisms. It covers over 300 classical as well as contemporary name reactions. Biographical sketches for the chemists who discovered or developed those name reacti...
The field of heterocyclic chemistry has long presented a special challenge for chemists. This work covers the important name reactions relevant to heterocyclic chemistry. The primary topics include three- and four-membered heterocycles, five-membered hete...
