March 2019
440 pages
During the last decade, there has been a great progress in the field of N-heterocyclic carbenes and their use in organocatalysis. Summarizing the emerging field of N-heterocyclic carbenes used in organocatalysis, N-Heterocyclic Carbenes in Organocatalysis is an excellent overview of the synthesis and applications of NHCs focusing on carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation. Alongside comprehensive coverage of the synthesis, characteristics and applications, this handbook and ready reference also includes chapters on NHCs for polymerization reactions and natural product synthesis.
