Recognising the critical need for bringing a handy reference workthat deals with the most popular reagents in synthesis to thelaboratory of practising organic chemists, the Editors of theacclaimed Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis (EROS)have selected the most important and useful reagents employed incontemporary organic synthesis. Handbook of Reagents for Organic Synthesis: Oxidizing andReducing Agents, provides the synthetic chemist with a convenientcompendium of information concentrating on the most important andfrequently employed reagents for the oxidation and reduction oforganic compounds, extracted and updated from EROS. The inclusionof a bibliography of reviews and monographs, a compilation ofOrganic Syntheses procedures with tested experimental details andreferences to oxidizing and reducing agents will ensure that thishandbook is both comprehensive and convenient.
