A. C. Knipe 
Organic Reaction Mechanisms 2004 [PDF ebook] 
An annual survey covering the literature dated January to December 2004

The 40th annual volume in this highly successful and
unique series surveying the advances in the understanding of
organic reaction mechanisms.



In every volume the content is divided in the different classes
of organic reaction mechanisms, including:

* Reaction of Aldehydes and Ketones and their Derivatives

* Reactions of Carboxylic, Phosphoric, and Sulfonic Acids and
their Derivatives

* Oxidation and Reduction

* Carbenes and Nitrenes

* Elimination Reactions

* Radical Reactions

* Molecular Rearrangements

An experienced team of authors compile these reviews every year, so
that the reader can rely on a continuing quality of selection and
presentation. As a new service to the reader all reaction
mechanisms leading to stereospecific products are highlighted. This
reflects the needs of the organic synthetic community with leads to
chiral reactions.
