The Chemistry of Organolithium Compounds

This is the first volume in the series to concentrate on organo lithium compounds the sub series The Chemistry of the Metal Carbon Bond (5 vol) treated organometallics in general. It deals with theoretical/physical/computational apsects, as well as major spectroscopies, such as MS, NMR, IR/UV etc and both biological and industrial applications. The core of the volume is the synthetic chapters with lots of examples for modern synthetic approaches. Written by key researchers in the field, it is an invaluable reference source to organic chemists working in academia and industry. It also features important reagents in organic synthesis.
