      Water-Stable Metal-Organic Frameworks (WSMOFs) presents water-stable metal-organic frameworks for mitigating environmental pollutants, i.e. sensing and degradation/removal applications to protect the ecological system, both environmental and aquatic life, from various types of toxic pollutants released from industries. The pressing challenge of extracting common pollutants, including heavy metal ions, anions, oil, and radionuclides from water sources is a critical issue due to the widespread problem of environmental contamination. Various approaches have been explored for this purpose, such as sorbents, chemical precipitation, and traditional membrane separation. However, these methods often suffer from inadequate selectivity and low pollutant uptake.Developing water-stable MOFs is the key to advancing effective water purification techniques, but the primary challenge lies in crafting MOF structures that can maintain their stability when exposed to water.

      Strategic Disconnections in Retrosynthetic Analysis from Pattern Recognition: An Applied Approach introduces retrosynthetic analysis through strategic disconnection methods. It prioritizes disconnections of general structures characterized by specific functionalization patterns or structural motifs like stereogenic centers or bicyclic frameworks. Numerous examples from carefully selected literature illustrate each strategic disconnection, organized by functional or structural pattern, selected disconnection, and polar, radical, or concerted reaction pathways. Developing a deep understanding of these examples enhances 3D visualization skills, critical reasoning, and expertise in synthetic strategies.The book offers insights into advancements in organic synthesis over the last 50 years, with cases of varying complexity from curated literature. Readers can focus on examples that align with their interests or lab work, each case referenced for easy access to primary information. It is ideal for graduate and postdoc students in organic chemistry and synthesis and researchers in industry. Advanced undergraduate students with a solid organic chemistry foundation may also find it beneficial.

      Problem-Oriented Analytical Chemistry Driven by Chemometrics covers challenges that are relevant to many fields using analytical techniques, including food quality and safety, environmental studies, product authentication, and petrochemistry using an analytical data science approach. The book's novel approach starts from case studies, allowing analytical chemists to understand how seemingly impenetrable chemometrics techniques can be applied to solve problems. It is written primarily to assist graduate and postdoc analytical chemists and early researchers, but has applicability to industry, too.Many analytical chemists dealing with complex, real-world problems face significant difficulties extracting information from their data. In many cases, solutions are available in the chemometrics arena but relevant books are usually too technical and do not always focus on the 'general perspective' needed by the analyst when facing those complex tools.
