Informationen zum Autor Eiji Osawa is a former professor of computational chemistry, noted for his prediction of the C¿¿ molecule in 1970. Osawa received his Master's of Engineering in chemistry from Kyoto University's Department of Industrial Chemistry and then became an engineer at Teijin Co., Ltd. Osamu Yonemitsu is the editor of Carbocyclic Cage Compounds: Chemistry and Applications, published by Wiley. Klappentext Carbocyclic Cage Compounds: Chemistry and Applications by Eiji Osawa and Osamu Yonemitsu Here is an in-depth presentation of current research and theory on the chemistry of three-dimensional polycyclic molecules, or "cage molecules," synthesized compounds with closed structures. Internationally known scientists introduce their areas of expertise, ranging from general principles to highly specialized perspectives on this fascinating branch of pure chemistry.
