"…the clarity of the text and the extensive coverage would make this an excellent book for a graduate student or upper level chemistry major. Practicing organic chemists…might also find it a worthy addition to their personal libraries." (<i>Journal of Medicinal Chemistry</i>, January 26, 2006) <p>"…an indispensable resource…the essential nature of each of the reactions addressed in the book is presented in sufficient detail…" (<i>Journal of Chemical Education</i>, December 2005)</p> <p>"This book is an essential guide to named organic reactions for chemistry students, organic chemists, and chemists in general." (<i>Chemical Educator</i>, May/June 2005)</p>

<p>Thomas Laue and Andreas Plagens are the authors of Named Organic Reactions, 2nd Edition, published by Wiley.

For the Second Edition the authors have completely revised the whole text. With the Baylis-Hillman Reaction and the Swern Oxidation, new reactions have been added. Key reactions such as the Sharpless Epoxidation and the Heck Reaction have been completely revised. Where necessary new references were added and new developments such as the Sharpless Dihydroxylation have been included. <p>Overall, this book is concentrating on the most important named organic reactions. The reactions are presented in alphabetical order, from the Acyloin Condensation to the Wurtz Reaction. For each reaction clearly outlined reaction mechanisms and applications are presented.</p> <p><i>Named Organic Reactions, 2nd Edition</i> provides</p> <ul> <li>The perfect revision aid to key organic reactions</li> <li>References for easy information access</li> <li>Further information, including side reactions, yields and variations of the reaction</li> </ul> <p>This book is <i>the</i> essential guide to named organic reactions for chemistry students.</p>
