SynopsisThe subject is central to applications in industries such as the design and testing of natural and synthetic pharmaceuticals, oil refining, the development of agrochemicals, bioremediation, and use in functional genomics and xenobiotics. Synthesizing data from all major resources over the past 30 years, this volume contains descriptions of 20,000 aromatic compounds and is the first such reference published since 1972. Goodwin (retired now, but formerly with Kings College in London) focuses coverage on biotransformation in animals, plants, and microbes, remaining within the scope of aromatic compounds that contain or are fused with at least one aromatic C6 ring. Part One lists each compound alphabetically along with the forward and reverse mechanisms of its metabolism in specific organisms. Part Two characterizes the different types of organic reactions that have been identified.
