Hypervalent Iodine Chemistry [PDF ebook] 
Preparation, Structure, and Synthetic Applications of Polyvalent Iodine Compounds

Hypervalent Iodine Chemistry is the first comprehensive
text covering all of the main aspects of the chemistry of organic
and inorganic polyvalent iodine compounds, including applications
in chemical research, medicine, and industry.
Providing a comprehensive overview of the preparation,
properties, and synthetic applications of this important class of
reagents, the text is presented in the following way:
* The introductory chapter provides a historical
background and describes the general classification of
iodine compounds, nomenclature, hypervalent bonding, structural
features, and the principles of reactivity of polyvalent iodine
compounds.
* Chapter 2 gives a detailed description of the
preparative methods and structural features of all known
classes of organic and inorganic derivatives of polyvalent
iodine.
* Chapter 3, the key chapter of the book, deals with the
many applications of hypervalent iodine reagents in organic
synthesis.
* Chapter 4 describes the most recent achievements
in hypervalent iodine catalysis.
* Chapter 5 deals with recyclable polymer-supported
and nonpolymeric hypervalent iodine reagents.
* Chapter 6 covers the ‘green’ reactions of
hypervalent iodine reagents under solvent-free conditions or in
aqueous solutions.
* The final chapter provides an overview of the important
practical applications of polyvalent iodine compounds in
medicine and industry.
This book is aimed at all chemists interested in iodine
compounds, including academic and industrial researchers in
inorganic, organic, physical, medicinal, and biological chemistry.
It will be particularly useful to synthetic organic and inorganic
chemists, including graduate and advanced undergraduate students.
It comprehensively covers the green chemistry aspects of
hypervalent iodine chemistry, making it especially useful for
industrial chemists.
