The Vocabulary of Organic Chemistry Milton Orchin, Fred Kaplan, Roger S. Macomber, R. Marshall Wilson & Hans W. Zimmer Identifies those terms and concepts which now constitute the vocabulary of organic chemists, then defines and explains these terms and concepts, most often using examples. Organized so that subject matter builds successively on increasingly varied and complex material. All terms and concepts related to a particular area are placed together, except for one chapter on name and type reactions, which is alphabetically arranged. The only book of its kind–valuable to students, teachers and chemical professionals alike. 1980 Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis Theodora W. Greene Provides essential information on transformations of organic molecules, including instructions and references for the protection and regeneration of the major organic functional groups: -OH, -NH, -SH, -COOH, and C = O. Covers the best methods of formation and cleavage, properties of protective groups, selection of a group for a particular need. Organization is by functional groups to be protected, with groups arranged in order of increasing complexity of structure, and with most efficient methods of formation or cleavage described first. Charts show the reactivities of 270 of the most commonly used protective groups to 108 reagents, selected as prototypes for the entire array of reagents available to the organic chemist. 1981 Basics of Electroorganic Synthesis Demetrios K. Kyriacou A veteran organic electrochemist illuminates fundamental ideas and principles by means of selected examples from the literature and his own research, demonstrating the practical unity of the field in a clear, concise manner. Describes the general electroorganic reaction and illustrates the general mode of concepts and applications in the area of electrosynthesis. Contains a brief survey of electroorganic reactions and coverage of special topics and the praxis of electroorganic synthesis. 1981
Each volume reviews the total synthesis of a set of compounds looking at syntheses reported historically and at the practice current at the time of publication. From volume 1 focusing on carbohydrates, prostagladins, nucleic acids, antibiotics, naturally occurring oxygen ring compounds and pyrrole pigments, the series continues with coverage of aromatic steroids, monoterpenes, triterpenes, sesquiterpenes, cannabinoids, natural inophores, insect pheromones and alkaloids. Volumes revisit the total synthesis of key compounds such as carbohydrates, nucleic acids and pyrrole pigments several times during the series building a picture of the historic development of total synthesis techniques for these major groups. Chapters are edited by experts in their field to give a complete overview of the best in the field at the time.

More than a one-volume listing of synthetic methods, Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods offers chemists a highly focused and selective look at several thousand functional group transformations. Used by more professionals than any comparable reference on the market, this valuable desktop resource provides quick access to the recipes of the newest, most useful reactions and transformations. It also affords professionals an unparalleled opportunity to browse the vast body of recent literature for new reactions and transformations that may be of interest. Featuring 1,200 more entries than its predecessor, Volume 8 covers functional group transformations and carbon-carbon bond forming reactions appearing in the literature from 1990 through 1992. It presents approximately 1,400 examples of published reactions for the preparation of monofunctional compounds and approximately 1,640 examples of reactions that prepare difunctional compounds with various functional groups. It also features 60 more reviews than Volume 7. As in all the previous Compendium volumes, the classification schemes used allow for quick and easy reference and information retrieval. Chemical transformations are classified first by the reacting functional group of the starting material and then by the functional group formed. The transformation, major reagents that effect the transformation, yield percentage, and stereochemistry are all clearly shown. The Compendium also includes indices for both monofunctional and difunctional compounds as an efficient means of guiding you to specific classes of transformations. Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods, Volume 8 provides professional chemists and students unparalleled access to the wealth of methods, reactions, and transformations in contemporary organic chemistry.
Provides synthetic chemists with a method for rapid retrieval of information from the literature, listing material by reaction type rather than by author name or publication date. Each updated volume presents the latest synthetic methods for preparation of monofunctional and difunctional compounds. The organization is logical and easy to follow; sections are arranged according to the possible interconversions between the major functional groups. Enables synthetic chemists to keep abreast of recent developments and retrieve a specific piece of information quickly and easily.

Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods Volume III Louis S. Hegedus & Leroy G. Wade, Jr. Presents the new synthetic methods for preparation of monofunctional compounds for 1974, 1975, and 1976. Sections correspond to most of the possible interconversions between the major functional groups. In addition, the volume contains examples of new methods of preparation of difunctional compounds formed from pairs of the major functional groups. 1977 (0 471-36752-4) 495 pages Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods Volume II Ian T. Harrison & Shuyen Harrison «. a valuable supplement to their earlier volume.
