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.
