Science of Synthesis: Houben-Weyl Methods of Molecular Transformations is
the entirely new edition of the acclaimed reference series, Houben-Weyl, the
standard synthetic chemistry resource since 1909. This new edition is published
in English and will comprise of 48 volumes published between the years 2000 and
2008.
Science of Synthesis is a quality reference work developed by a highly
esteemed editorial board to provide a comprehensive and critical selection of
reliable organic and organometallic synthetic methods. Science of Synthesis is
designed to be the first point of reference when searching for a synthesis
strategy.
This volume covers the synthesis of five-membered heterocyclic
compounds with an oxygen-, sulfur-, nitrogen-, selenium-, tellurium-, or
phosphorus-containing heterocycle fused to one or two benzenoid rings. Volume 10
presents selected procedures for the synthesis of benzoannulated five-membered
hetarenes. It covers the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds with widely
differing stabilities and chemical and physical properties ranging from unstable
hetarenes, such as benzo[c]furans, to very stable dibenzohetarenes, such as
dibenzothiophene.
