Silicon-mediated Transformations of Functional Groups

Silicon-mediated Transformations of Functional Groups

Editorial Reviews
Review
"…very informative and should be of great interest to practicing organic chemists." (Journal of the American Chemical Society, October 26, 2005)

“This handbook is a clear, compact compilation … an essential practical and reference book for the research chemist.”  (Applied Organometallic Chemistry, May 2005)

Book Description
In the first work to comprehensively cover this all-important topic, the recognized expert Helmut Vorbrüggen provides both organic and bioorganic chemists with much new and valuable information for preparative synthesis.

Although every organic chemist may be familiar with different aspects of silylation for the protection of functional groups, this book covers the concept of protection while simultaneously silylating-activating various functional groups, such as amides and ureas. This novel methodology opens thus numerous synthetic pathways while effecting the elimination of water in it volatile persilylated form under rather mild reaction conditions, which are often advantageous compared to conventional methods.

The compact form and clear structure of this monograph make this a long-awaited ready reference.
