Theilheimer's Synthetic Methods of Organic Chemistry

Description

This essential library tool is now available online

This systematic survey of the mainstream organic chemistry literature, published six-monthly, provides a key research tool. Highlights include:

• Examples abstracted to illustrate important new, generally applicable, synthetic methods
• Abstracts summarizing the experimental procedure as well as indicating the scope and limitations of the method and important mechanistic features
• Abstracts collated and organised into logical sections, affording a useful browsing tool
• Comprehensive indexing and cross-referencing providing an invaluable research tool
• More than 1000 graphical abstracts per year complemented by thousands of additional references, which comprise supplementary information, citations to previous abstracts, a review of reviews and informed commentary on latest trends
• Available as 'ActiveBooks' - fully text-searchable online versions

Each volume provides the organic chemist with an indispensable educational tool both for researching and browsing recent literature highlights in a way that is entirely complementary with searching electronic reaction databases. Extensive indexing and cross-referencing allows the series to grow, volume by volume, into an important reference work that deserves to be an integral part of any scientific library.

Specifically, volume 80 comprises:

• 520 graphical abstracts covering the mainstream organic chemistry literature to November 2011
• A summary of reviews covering the six-month period to April 2012, collated into easily-accessible sections
• An informed commentary on research trends during the six-month period to May 2012
