Reviews

?Overall, this is a useful book for process chemists with the reservation that modern carbon-carbon bond forming catalytic reactions (Buchwald-Hartwig, Suzuki-Miyaura, Heck etc) are not covered. The emphasis is definitely towards heterogenous catalysis.? (Organic Process Research & Development Journal, 1 November 2012)
