From cost and safety to synthetic efficiency and environmental friendliness, water has many potential advantages as a solvent for organic reactions. This book examines different aspects of organic reactions in water, enabling readers to gain an essential understanding of current thinking on a range of reaction types and techniques.





Beginning with basic theory and progressing to synthetic applications, Organic Reactions in Aqueous Media is an ideal platform for both advanced-level study and practical research. It covers these key areas:


? Fundamental properties of water


? Pericyclic reactions-including Diels-Alder reactions


? Nucleophilic additions and substitutions


? Metal mediated reactions


? Transition metal catalyzed reactions


? Oxidations and reductions


? Industrial applications
