The book discusses the preparation, nature, stereochemical aspects, reactions, and the kinetic and thermodynamic assessment of the stability of sulfur-containing carbanions; the preparation and reactions of sulfur ylides; and the preparation, assessment of stability, and reactions of sulfur-containing carbocations. The text also describes preparation, assessment of stability, nature, and reactions of sulfur-containing radicals, organosulfur carbenes, and carbenoids; as well as the the pericyclic reactions of organosulfur compounds. Chemists, biochemists, and students taking related courses will find the book useful.
