  • The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Pharmacology

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 35
    • September 8, 1989
    • English
  • Organic Functional Group Preparations

    Volume 3
    • 2nd Edition
    • August 28, 1989
    • Stanley R. Sandler + 1 more

    This volume provides organic chemists with a convenient, up-to-date reference source on reliable preparative procedures for the most common functional groups. Preparations for each functional group have been subdivided into various reaction types.
  • Flow Injection Analysis

    A Practical Guide
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 10
    • August 4, 1989
    • B. Karlberg + 1 more
    • English
    This is a practical guide for first-time and experienced users of Flow Injection Analysis (FIA). It gives, not a detailed theoretical analysis, but a ``nuts and bolts'' approach to the description of the technique and how it can be utilized to solve analytical chemical problems.The advantages of flow injection, how, when, why and where it works are all fully explained. Criteria for the choice of hardware and useful hints for maintenance are provided. The large variety of detectors suitable to combine with FIA are discussed, as are special modes of operation, their advantages and their limitations, and also conversion of batch methods to FIA methods. Numerous in-depth descriptions of applications of FIA techniques in water, soil, pharmaceutical and industrial analysis are featured, and a complete bibliography is included.The authors have spent several years demonstrating, lecturing and using FIA and the basic outline of their book closely follows the schedule of the FIA workshops they have taught. It will be an invaluable tool for all chemists who perform analyses on a routine basis.
  • Reactions at the Liquid-Solid Interface

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 28
    • July 26, 1989
    • R.G. Compton
    • English
    Volume 28 of Comprehensive Chemical Kinetics is concerned with reactions occurring at the solid-liquid interface. Volumes 26 and 27 have dealt with electrochemical reactions. The present volume therefore covers those interfacial processes which involve no net passage of current. The first chapter covers the structure of the interfacial region and its experimental investigation. The second chapter reviews the mechanisms by which heterogeneous catalysis of solution reactions can take place. The third is concerned with the mechanism and kinetics of crystal growth from solution. The final chapter deals with corrosion processes at the metal-solution interface.

  • Photochemistry on Solid Surfaces

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 47
    • June 1, 1989
    • Takeshi Matsuura + 1 more
    • English
    The latest developments in photochemistry on solid surfaces, i.e. photochemistry in heterogeneous systems, including liquid crystallines, are brought together for the first time in a single volume. Distinguished photochemists from various fields have contributed to the book which covers a number of important applications: molecular photo-devices for super-memory, photochemical vapor deposition to produce thin-layered electronic semiconducting materials, sensitive optical media, the control of photochemical reactions pathways, etc. Photochemistry on solid surfaces is now a major field and this book which provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the subject will be of interest to a wide range of readers.
  • Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 21
    • April 24, 1989
    • English
    Commencing with Volume 21, the aim of this series is to produce a larger number of, relatively short but, timely and authoritative reviews. These will concentrate, in particular, on areas of NMR where recent progress, and developments, are of special interest and will reflect the many NMR developments occurring in the primary scientific literature. The present volume demonstrates the advances which can be made by the application of NMR techniques in many diverse areas of chemistry. Of particular significance is the account of Graphics-Aided NMR which will become an inprotant development in the use of NMR spectroscopy.
