The Chemistry of Organoboron Compounds, 2 Volume Set

The understanding of functional groups is the key to understanding organic chemistry. In the tradition of Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups each volume treats all aspects of functional groups, touching on theoretical, analytical, synthetic, biological, and industrial aspects..

Organoboron compounds are widely used as highly efficient reagents in a growing number of reactions, including cross-coupling and radical reactions. Organoboron derivatives are also found in highly temperature-resistant polymers, and in high-performance electronic and sensor materials. The present volume is the first in the series to survey the properties and chemical behavior of organoboron compounds, their use in organic synthesis, as well as their commercial application..

As with all new volumes, the chapters are first published online in Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups. Once a volume is completed online, it is then published in print format. The printed book offers the traditional quality of the Patai Book Series, complete with an extensive index.
