This book is composed of seven chapters, and starts with a brief historical account of the uses of organic reagents in inorganic analysis. The next chapter discusses some basic physico-chemical factors associated with the constitution of a good reagent, including some fundamental ideas about the type and nature of the principal reactive and other groupings in the ligand. A chapter deals with the inclusion of the methods of preparation and properties of N-benzoylphenylhydro... (BPHA) and its analogues and derivatives, and their reactions with different metal ions. These topics are followed by descriptions of the various types of analytical applications of BPHA and its analogues, such as gravimetry, spectrophotometry, and solvent extraction, as well as their applications in titrimetry and paper chromatography. This book is of value to analytical and organic chemists.

  • Studies in Natural Products Chemistry

    Bioactive Natural Products

The original edition was structured to reflect, in part, the origin of the field. However, in the past two decades, the field has changed a great deal as reflected in this new work that covers the general principles of supramolecular chemistry and molecular recognition, experimental and computational methods in supramolecular chemistry, supramolecular receptors, dynamic supramolecular chemistry, supramolecular engineering, crystallographic (engineered) assemblies, sensors, imaging agents, devices and the latest in nanotechnology. Each section begins with an introduction by an expert in the field, who offers an initial perspective on the development of the field. Each article begins with outlining basic concepts before moving on to more advanced material.
