The Chemistry of Carbonyl Compounds and Derivatives (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781788017831)

Originally published in Portuguese, this book is divided into three sections: the chemistry of aldehydes, ketones, nitriles, imines and derivatives; the chemistry of carboxylic and carbonic acids and derivatives and the chemistry of alpha, beta-unsaturated carbonyls. The authors have merged aspects of valence bond and molecular orbital theories in order to discuss structural and physico-chemical properties and reactivity and stereochemical outcomes of the most relevant reactions for these functional groups. The book provides representative experimental procedures for key reactions, highlights to contextualize the concepts and properties discussed and includes some biographical notes. It will help advanced level undergraduate and graduate students to understand and become well acquainted with the reactions of carbonyl compounds and derivatives.
