Description

With its unique emphasis on the synthetic value of photochemistry, the CRC Handbook of Organic Photochemistry and Photobiology details the advantages of photochemistry over conventional thermal methods. This comprehensive volume of more than 1500 pages classifies reactions by chromophore for quick and easy access to data. Preliminary sections provide an introduction to photochemical terminology and tables of valuable physical data. Each subsequent section highlights the synthetic usefulness of a particular reaction and includes extensive references and brief experimental details for sample conversions. Contributors include leading organic chemists from around the world.
