This book contains a considerable number of transition-metal-based procedures that have genuine applications in synthesis, and which are arranged according to the nature of the organic product or synthetic transformation being carried out. The objective is to provide those engaged in the preparation of pharmaceuticals, natural products, herbicides, dyestuffs, and other organic chemicals with a practical guide to the application of transition metals in organic synthesis. Topics considered include the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, the formation of carbocyclic compounds, the formation of heterocyclic compounds, the isomerization of alkenes, the direct introduction and removal of carbonyl groups, reduction, oxidation, and preparing and handling transition metal catalysts.
