Applications of Palladium in Organic Synthesis. A Mechanistic Approach. Edition No. 1

This book offers a comprehensive review of the many applications of palladium in organic synthesis. The organization is by the types of reactive organopalladium intermediates involved in the various synthetic processes, with chapters on: p-olefin chemistry, p-alkyne chemistry, p-allylpalladium chemistry, p-allenic and -propargylic chemistry, oxidative addition/insertion chemistry, electrophilic palladation, and hydrometallation chemistry. Using an approach based on the mechanism of the overall process, the authors tie together many very diverse synthetic processes for the reader to make the topic more understandable, and less a collection of miscellaneous disconnected processes.
