Book Synopsis

Hydroxyketones: Preparation and Physical Properties (c2500pp in 4 volumes)

SUMMARY

VOLUME 1- Hydroxybenzophenones are useful synthetic intermediates in chemical industry, for example in pharmaceuticals, dyes, fragrances, agrochemicals, explosives and plastics. In this handbook, the diverse ways of obtaining over 1900 hydroxybenzophenones are described, and their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic data references are indicated. Hence, ketones are classified methodically. They are thus easily accessible from three tables: the molecular formula index, the chemical abstracts registry numbers and the usual names index. This handbook includes 1475 references. This work will prove to be a valuable tool for laboratory work and research and development departments. It is set to become the reference on hydroxybenzophenones.This handbook is particularly intended for academic or industrial organic chemists.

VOLUMES 2 and 3 -Hydroxyacetophenones are the starting material for a wide variety of syntheses in organic chemistry. Hydroxyacetophenones are versatile building blocks serving many different applications, such as pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals and polymers. In this handbook, the diverse methods of obtaining over 3000 hydroxyacetophenones are described and their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic data references are indicated. The handbook is presented in dictionary style, with a logical classification of the ketones, making the information easily available for consultation. Ketones are classified methodically. They are thus easily accessible from three tables: the molecular formula index, the chemical abstracts registry and the usual names index. This completely revised and enlarged edition includes 3541 references. It is a powerful synthesis tool for researchers or industrial producers. Nowhere else are so many compounds covered or the physical properties and relevant syntheses provided.

VOLUME 4 - Hydroxypropiophenones, Homologous and Methyl ethers are the starting material for a wide variety of syntheses in organic chemistry. They are versatile building blocks serving many different applications: pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals and polymers. In this Handbook the diverse ways of obtaining over 1419 ketones are described and their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic data references are indicated. Some uses of these ketones are mentioned. The Handbook is presented in dictionary style, with a logical classification of the ketones, making the information easily available for consultation. Ketones are easily accessible from three tables: the molecular formula index, the chemical abstracts registry and the usual names index. This handbook includes 2126 references. This Handbook is the reference on hydroxypropiophenones, hydroxyisobutyrophenones, hydroxypivalophenones and their methyl ethers. It is a powerful synthesis tool for researchers or industrial producers. Provides complete coverage of the physical properties and relevant syntheses.

From the Back Cover

Aromatic Hyroxyketones: Preparation and Physical Properties is a revised, new edition 4-volume handbook set which provides detailed information on physical properties and syntheses on a wide range of hydroxyketones. Each entry includes characterization data such as the Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number (CAS RN), molecule name, molecular formula, and molecular weight. The handbooks are presented in dictionary style, with a logical classification of the ketones, making the information easily available for consultation. This handbook set provides 6000 hydroxyketone entries and includes approximately 6000 references.

Volume 1: Hydroxybenzophenones

Hydroxybenzophenones are most useful synthetic intermediates in the chemical industry, for example in pharmaceuticals, dyes, fragrances, agrochemicals, explosives and plastics. The first volume of this set is particularly intended for engineers in chemical synthesis and academics as well as industrial researchers from various branches of chemistry.

Volume 2 and 3: Hydroxyacetophenones

Hydroxyacetophenones constitute the starting material for a wide variety of syntheses in organic chemistry. They are versatile building blocks serving many different applications, such as especially polymers, pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. These two volumes constitute a useful tool for chemists and pharmacists in general.

Volume 4: Hydroxypropiophenones, Hydroxyisobutyrophenones, Hydroxypivalophenones and Derivatives

Hydroxypropiophenones, Hydroxyisobutyrophenones, Hydroxypivalophenones and Derivatives constitute the starting material for a wide variety of syntheses in organic chemistry. They are versatile building blocks serving many different applications: pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals and polymers. This volume is a great book of reference on hydroxypropiophenones, hydroxyisobutyrophenones, hydroxypivalophenones and their methyl ethers which also mentions some uses of these ketones. It is a powerful synthesis tool for researchers or industrial producers and provides a wide choice of hydroxyketones.
