Synthetic Organic Electrochemistry

Download or read book Synthetic Organic Electrochemistry written by Albert J. Fry and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1989-07-05 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to electrochemical methods and their use in the synthetic laboratory. Covers the major organic electrochemical pathways of synthetic interest, while de-emphasizing the mechanistic literature. For each functional group covered, the essential features of its electrochemical behavior are outlined, including the presumed intermediates. This Second Edition has been revised, covering the literature through early 1988, and presents useful electrochemical reactions superior to, and, in some cases, without counterparts in, conventional chemical methods.
