"Preparative Polar Organometallic Chemistry" offers detailed laboratory procedures for synthesizing and functionalizing organoalkali and Grignard compounds. This second volume focuses on compounds with metal at sp3 carbon, complementing the first volume. It serves as a practical manual for organic chemists at all levels.
Homogeneous catalysis is an important strategy for the synthesis of high-valued chemicals. L. Brandsma has carefully selected and checked the experimental procedures illustrating the catalytic use of copper, nickel, and palladium compounds in organic synthesis. All procedures are on a preparative scale, make economic use of solvents and catalysts, avoid toxic substances and have high yields.
