Science of Synthesis is a reference work for preparative methods in synthetic chemistry. Its product-based classification system enables chemists to easily find solutions to their synthetic problems.

Key Features:

• Critical selection of reliable synthetic methods, saving the researcher the time required to find procedures in the primary literature.
• Expertise provided by leading chemists.
• Detailed experimental procedures.
• The information is highly organized in a logical format to allow easy access to the relevant information.
