Das führende Referenzwerk für die bororganische Chemie Professor Mark Gandelman und seine Kollegen tauchen tief in die Theorie, Struktur, Analyse, Synthese und Reaktionen der bororganischen Chemie ein. Bororganische Verbindungen kommen als hocheffiziente Reagenzien bei vielen Reaktionen zum Einsatz, darunter bei Kreuzkupplungen und Radikal-Reaktionen. Die renommierten Autoren führen ihr Wissen der organischen und physikalischen Chemie in einem Werk zusammen. In der Regel stammen diese Informationen aus unterschiedlichen Quellen. Dieses Buch konzentriert sich auf vollständig biologisch abbaubare Reagenzien als Gegenpart zu umweltschädlichen Schwermetallkatalysatoren. The Chemistry of Organoboron Compounds bietet umfassende und ausführliche Informationen zu - dem Verhalten bororganischer Verbindungen, - dem Einsatz bororganischer Verbindungen in der organischen Synthese, - kommerziellen Anwendungen bororganischer Verbindungen. The Chemistry of Organoboron Compounds aus der gefeierten Reihe Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups bietet alle Merkmale, die Leser von der Reihe gewohnt sind, auch ein ausführliches Stichwortverzeichnis.

Progress in Boron Chemistry, Volume 3 discusses the chemistry and applications of boron and its compounds. This book offers a detailed treatment of five areas of boron chemistry. Organized into five chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the use of boric acid to favor alcohol formation in the air oxidation of hydrocarbons. This text then explains the standard procedure for hydrocarbon oxidation, which consists of passing air or a dilute oxygen in nitrogen stream via a suspension of boric acid in the heated substrate. Other chapters describe the radical-catalyzed addition of carbon tetrachloride to dibutyl vinylboronate and examine the growing interest in boron–nitrogen chemistry. This book discusses as well the polar addition of hydrogen bromide to unsaturated boronic esters. The final chapter deals with the chemical properties of organic boron–sulfur compounds. This book is a valuable resource for chemists, organic chemists, students, and research workers.

For the first time the discipline of modern inorganic chemistry has been systematized according to a plan constructed by a council of editorial advisors and consultants, among them three Nobel laureates (E.O. Fischer, H. Taube and G. Wilkinson). Rather than producing a collection of unrelated review articles, the series creates a framework which reflects the creative potential of this scientific discipline. Thus, it stimulates future development by identifying areas which are fruitful for further research. The work is indexed in a unique way by a structured system which maximizes its usefulness to the reader. It augments the organization of the work by providing additional routes of access for specific compounds, reactions and other topics.
