N. M. van Leeuwen Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia, Tarragona, Spain C-1 Building Blocks in Organic Synthesis reviews a wide variety of reactions by which one carbon atom is added to an organic molecule, forming a C-C bond. In spite of the numerous classic reactions of this kind, there has been enormous progress in recent years, especially for those reactions involving catalytic methods. Introduction of substituted methyl groups is a major challenge and only very recently the first catalysts have been discovered that enable the introduction of fluoromethyl groups in aromatics.

It illustrates how water can often be a viable and green solvent in the laboratory and provides a detailed introduction to the subject: background information, evaluated methods, practical applications, industrial applications, special techniques, and an overview of the latest trends. The reference work also helps in inspiring chemists worldwide to find new approaches and techniques for the application of water in organic synthesis. Water in Organic Synthesis Shū Kobayashi University of Tokyo, Japan Shū Kobayashi: While most organic reactions have been carried out in organic solvents for a long time, negative aspects of organic solvents have come to the fore recently; many organic solvents are volatile, flammable, sometimes explosive, and have a damaging effect on human health or on the environment. Water is obviously the first choice of alternative solvent; water is clean, non-toxic, inexpensive, and the most environmentally benign. Water is really beautiful in nature, and indeed she chose water as a solvent. Many elegant in vitro reactions are carried out in water in our bodies, mainly catalyzed by enzymes. Why should mankind not choose to use water in synthesis?

Which synthetic methodology is the most reliable? Which experimental procedures could I use? Which experts work in this field and what is their opinion? Science of Synthesis is an indispensable tome of chemical information organized in an intuitive and logical way. It contains information on nearly every aspect of chemical reactivity and, for me, is the go-to resource for rapidly learning about a new area. I use it regularly in preparation for classes and for consulting visits it simply gives me the information I need far more easily than any search engine is capable of and very often contains references and insight that cannot be found anywhere else. Prof. Phil S. Baran The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA, USA Today s scientific community must struggle to find ways to effectively distill massive floods of information into real knowledge. Science of Synthesis does this superbly well with carefully selected content on synthetic organic chemistry that has been written and edited by leading authorities from around the world. Science of Synthesis is a must-have for all universities and research institutions involved in material synthesis. Prof. Ryoji Noyori RIKEN, Japan Best methods. Best results.
