Organic Synthesis Using Transition Metals Second Edition Bates by Bates, Roderick instant download after payment.

The gradual realization that complexes of transition metals have a place in organic synthesis has caused a
quiet revolution. Organic chemists have used certain transition metal substances, such as palladium on carbon
and OsO4, for many years. These kinds of reactions are not the subject of this book, as they appear in every
standard text. The aim of this book is to provide an outline of the principle reactions of transition metal
complexes that are used in organic synthesis, both catalytic and stoichiometric, with examples to show how
they can be applied, and sufficient mechanistic information to allow them to be understood. The examples
of syntheses are intended to place them in the context of the entire synthesis where space permits, so a
great deal of non-transition metal chemistry can also be found in these pages. The molecular targets include
natural products, novel structures and molecules of industrial, especially pharmaceutical, interest. The scale
of the reaction for some of these molecules is indicated to show that these reactions are of more than just
academic interest.
