Heats of hydrogenation constitute a body of thermochemical information that has had an on-going significance despite the small number of research groups engaged in the work. Recent highly accurate quantum mechanical calculations requiring reference standards of high accuracy have brought hydrogen thermochemistry back into contemporary focus.This book concentrates on distinctive features of hydrogen thermochemistry such as the practical and historical aspects of experimental determination of the enthalpies of hydrogenation and formation of organic compounds, primarily hydrocarbons, literature on hydrogen thermochemistry over the last 70 years, as well as the impact of contemporary advances in computer hardware and software on the calculation of heats of hydrogenation.

Für das Verständnis der organischen Chemie muss man wissen, worum es sich bei funktionalen Gruppen handelt. Dieses Fachbuch steht ganz in der Tradition der Reihe Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups. Jeder Band deckt sämtliche Aspekte funktionaler Gruppen ab und behandelt dabei theoretische, analytische, synthetische, biologische Aspekte sowie Belange der Industrie. Hypervalente Halogenverbindungen, insbesondere Jodverbindungen, sind überaus effiziente und selektive Oxidantien für eine Vielzahl funktionaler Gruppen. Die elektrophilen Eigenschaften dieser Reagenzien können auch für die Einführung anderer Funktionalisierungen verwendet werden. Dieser Band ist der erste in der Reihe, die die Eigenschaften und das chemische Verhalten von hypervalentem Jod und Brom, deren Einsatz in der organischen Synthese sowie deren industrielle Anwendung untersucht. Wie bei allen neuen Bänden, werden die Kapitel zunächst online in Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups veröffentlicht. Wenn ein Band online vervollständigt ist, erfolgt die Herausgabe als Printversion. Die Printfassung entspricht der Qualität, die man von der Patai-Reihe kennt, und bietet auch einen umfassenden Index.

Heterocyclic chemistry is the biggest branch of chemistry covering two-thirds of the chemical literature. Aromaticity in Heterocyclic Compounds covers hot topics of frontier research summarized by reputed scientists in the field.

In clearly structured chapters, this book covers the fascinating world of hydrocarbons, providing an insight into the fundamental principles of chemistry. The monograph covers modern aspects of the topic, such as carbon nanotubes, molecular flask inclusion, and fullerenes, with new synthetic procedures for the build up of the structural lattice included.

Metal Enolates form a class of compounds that have recently received much study because of their part in the important C-C-bond forming aldol reaction. Focusing on this important class of compounds in organic synthesis, The Chemistry of Metal Enolates features contributions on all aspects of Metal Enolate chemistry from the world?s leading experts. Delivering the exceptional quality that?s expected from the Patai Series, this text is essential reading for organic chemists.
