Volume 5 in the Catalysts for Fine Chemical Synthesis series
describes new procedures for the regio- and stereo-controlled
transformations of compounds involving oxidation or reduction
reactions. It describes a wide range of catalysts, including
organometallic systems, biocatalysts and biomimetics. This
volume also includes descriptions of a variety of conversions,
including: Baeyer-Villiger oxidations; Epoxidation reactions;
Hydroxylation reactions; Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes,
ketones and carboxylic acids; Reduction of ketones; and Reduction
of alkenes including alpha, beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.
The book will be an important text for practising synthetic organic
chemists in industry and academia.
* Protocols are written in a standard format by the authors
who have discovered them
* Hints, tips and safety advice (where appropriate) is given to
ensure that the procedures are reproducible
* Indications are given as to the range of starting materials
used and, where appropriate, comparisons to alternative
methodology
* Includes relevant references to the primary literature.
