Index to Reviews, Symposia Volumes and Monographs in Organic Chemistry for the Period 1940-1960 presents a resume of published monographs, reviews, and symposia lectures in organic chemistry. The editors adopted the plan of listings by symposia volume or journal, backed up by the total subject and author indexes. In this way the user can readily locate a particular article through the author index or the subject index; or should he recall that an article appeared in a particular source, the chronological listing in that source can be scanned quickly. The Index gives a convenient overview of the accomplishments of organic chemists during this very prolific period of the growth of the field. Frequently, several articles on the same or similar subject appear, hence the historical perspective can be sensed by rapid evaluation of the reviews selected. This Index will be useful to research workers, teachers and students. It will also assist editors and authors to select specific areas which require critical review.

Index to Reviews, Symposia Volumes and Monographs in Organic Chemistry presents the development in organic chemistry for the period 1963—1964. This book covers works in English, German, and French languages, including also English translations of Russian studies. Organized into three parts encompassing 136 chapters, this book starts with a collection of review articles concerning the advances in analytical chemistry and instrumentation. This text then presents the annual collection of review articles on advances in chemical physics, chemotherapy, clinical chemistry, drug research, and fluorine chemistry. Other chapters deal with advances in food research, heterocyclic chemistry, spectroscopy, organic reactions, and tracer methodology. This book presents as well a collection of review articles on pharmaceutical sciences, polymer science, medicinal chemistry, pharmacy, and pharmacology. The final chapter presents a list of monographs concerning chemical engineering, applications of neutron diffraction in chemistry, and mechanochemistry of polymers. This book is a valuable resource for organic chemists, students, and scientists.
