  • Advances in Cycloaddition

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 4
    • Michael Harmata
    • English
    This is the fourth volume in the series, aimed at those wishing to stay abreast of developments in the mechanisms and synthetic applications of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions.
  • Advances in Macromolecular Carbohydrate Research

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 1
    • R.J. Sturgeon
    • English
    In recent years the most significant advances in carbohydrate research have been made in the knowledge of the structure and function of carbohydrates in the macromolecular state. This title addresses those areas of the subject in which the authors believe the most important work is being carried out.
  • Advances in Quantum Chemistry

    Recent Advances in Computational Quantum Chemistry
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 28
    • Per-Olov Lowdin
    • English
    Advances in Quantum Chemistry publishes surveys of current developments in the rapidly developing field of quantum chemistry--a field that falls between the historically established areas of mathematics, physics,chemistry, and biology. With invited reviews written by leading international researchers, each presenting new results, this quality serial provides a single vehicle for following progress in this interdisciplinary area. "Volume 28 collects papers written in honor of Geerd H.F. Diercksen. Diercksen is a pioneer in the field of quantum mechanics whose research includes studies of the structure and stability of hydrogen-bonded and Van der Waals dimers and small clusters, thevibrational and rotational spectra of diatomic and triatomic molecules, on static electric properties in solutions and of molecules absorbed on surfaces. His results are essential in molecular and atomic physics, in astrophysics, and in biochemistry.
  • Handbook of Palladium-Catalysed Organic Reactions

    • 1st Edition
    • J. C. Fiaud + 2 more
    • English
    This comprehensive handbook will be an indispensable research tool for chemists. Handbook of Palladium Catalysed Organic Reactions provides a synoptic description of the main types of reactions which are catalyzed by Palladium and the mechanism which causes these reactions. Each reaction is presented in graphical form and classified according to the type of transformation involved.Other books covering the use of Palladium complexes as catalysts have been written, but the Handbook is the only to offer a synoptic view, showing the catalytic cycle of each reaction. This complete coverage provides the reader with a good understanding of the parameters involved. The tables included can be viewed from the point of view of the reagents, the product of the reaction, or the mechanism involved. The Handbook is a companion to the Database of Palladium Chemistry: Reactions andCatalytic Cycles, published on CD-ROM.
  • Macromolecular Crystallography, Part A

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 276
    • John N. Abelson + 1 more
    • English
    The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for more than forty years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. More than 270 volumes have been published (all of them still in print) and much of the material is relevant even today--truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences.
  • Progress in Ion Exchange

    Advances and Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • A Dyer + 2 more
    • English
    This volume is a record of a conference, which was the fourth in a series held at NWEI, in Wrexham. It brought together scientists with interests in the broadly based subject of ion exchange, with the aim to cover aspects of its application as well as advances in the theory of ion exchange.
  • Organic Chemistry

    A Comprehensive Degree Text and Source Book
    • 1st Edition
    • H Beyer + 2 more
    • English
    This book deals with purification methods, chemical bonding theory and spectroscopic methods and is a reference book for chemists at any stage of their career. Rich in practical applications and historic vignettes, its lavish provision of knowledge reflects the authors' deliberate strategy to place chemistry in the widest perspective, providing a sound understanding of this complex and important branch of science.
  • Studies in Natural Products Chemistry

    Indices Part A
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 31
    • Atta-ur- Rahman
    • English
    The Studies in Natural Products Chemistry series is a valuable source for researchers and engineers working in natural product and medicinal chemistry. Studies in Natural Products Chemistry Volume 31: Indices Part A encompasses the contents of the previous 30 volumes published in the Studies in Natural Products series. To make searching easier, the book is divided into four separate indices: Cumulative General Subject Index; Cumulative Organic Synthesis Index; Cumulative Pharmacological Activity Index and; Cumulative Biological Source Index, allowing readers to easily locate required information. This volume and the series remain an important addition to any library.
  • Mossbauer Spectroscopy

    Principles and Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • A. G. Maddock
    • English
    Mossbauer spectroscopy has proved itself a versatile technique, finding applications in diverse areas of science and industry. Starting from physics and chemistry it spread into biochemistry, mineralogy, biochemistry, corrosion science, geochemistry and archaeology, with applications in industrial and scientific research. The author aims to help advanced university students, professionals and research workers who ask the question "what's in it for us?". After a concise account of experimental techniques, he emphasizes those applications in which there are few, if any, alternative ways of obtaining the same information about electron fields and the nuclei. He explains areas of industrial interest, including the important applications related to tin and iron on which there is much activity in research and development, and interprets the extension of Mossbauer techniques to main group, transitional and other suitable elements. Attention is paid to factors which may lead to misinterpretation of spectra and another chapter covers the complexities of interpreting emission spectra.
