The authoritative reference on organopalladium compounds, designed for synthetic chemists
Transition metals and their complexes represent one of the most important groups of catalysts for organic reactions. Among these, palladium has emerged as one of the most versatile catalysts in modern organic synthesis. The Handbook of Organopalladium Chemistry for Organic Synthesis is the first comprehensive and authoritative handbook on organopalladium reagents and catalysts.
Editor Ei-ichi Negishi assembles contributions from several dozen international authorities on the use of palladium reagents and catalysts. The Handbook's contents are organized by reaction type, making the two-volume handbook of maximum utility to the bench synthetic chemist. Chapter topics include:
* Palladium Compounds: Stoichiometric Preparation, In Situ Generation, and Some Physical and Chemical Properties
* Palladium-Catalyzed Reactions Involving Reductive Elimination: Cross-Coupling
* Carbopalladation and Related Reactions
* Palladium-Catalyzed Reactions Involving Nucleophilic Attack on Ligands
* Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylation and Other Related Reactions Involving Migratory Insertion
* Palladium-Catalyzed Hydrogenation and Related Reduction Reactions
* Palladium-Catalyzed Oxidation Reactions
* Rearrangement and Other Miscellaneous Reactions Catalyzed by Palladium
* Technological Developments in Organopalladium Chemistry
Professionals in pharmaceutical, fine chemicals, biotechnology, and agricultural industries, as well as graduate students interested in synthetic organic chemistry, will find the Handbook of Organopalladium Chemistry for Organic Synthesis an indispensable reference.
