The well respected and ever popular Fieser and Fieser series on reagents for organic synthesis provides concise descriptions, good structural formulas and selected examples of applications.
The Fieser and Fieser series has provided several generations of professional chemists and students with an up-to-date survey of the reagent literature, with information in alphabetical order by common name.
Originating in 1967, this series provides a guide to the preparation, properties and uses of thousands of reagents, with additional references to reagents previously discussed. It includes data on structural formulas, molecular weight, physical constants, preferred method of preparation, and examples of important uses. The series' standard format continues with this current volume, which covers the reagent literature published from mid-1988 to the end of 1989.
