Highlight chapters in Volume 34 are all written by leading researchers in their field, thus constituting a systematic survey of the important original material reported in the literature of heterocyclic chemistry in 2021.
As with previous volumes in the series, Volume 34 will enable academic and industrial chemists and advanced students to keep abreast of developments in heterocyclic chemistry in a convenient way.
- Recognized as the premiere review of heterocyclic chemistry
- Includes contributions from leading researchers in the field
- Provides a systematic survey of the important 2021 heterocyclic chemistry literature
- Presents articles on new and developing topics of interest to heterocyclic chemist
Given the wide breadth of heterocyclic chemistry, there is a vast secondary audience of scientists from other disciplines, including Organic and Analytical Chemists, Biochemists, Synthetic Chemists, Pharmaceutical Scientists and Chemical Engineers.
