Informationen zum Autor Zerong Wang, PhD, is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Houston Clear-Lake. His research interests include photochemistry, nucleosides, heterocycles, computational chemistry, sulfur chemistry, and material science. Dr. Wang was sole author of the three-volume encyclopedic book Comprehensive Organic Name Reactions and Reagents (Wiley, 2009) that contains 701 named reactions and reagents. Klappentext Diese Enzklopädie ist ein umfassendes und leicht verständliches Referenzwerk zu Methodiken und Techniken in der physikalisch-organischen Chemie. Zu den behandelten Themen gehören nicht nur die herkömmliche Kinetik und herkömmliche Mechanismen, sondern auch Themen aus vielen verwandten Bereichen, in denen die Prinzipien der physikalisch-organischen Chemie weit verbreitet sind. Die physikalisch-organische Chemie als klassische Grundlagendisziplin der Chemie wird in Zusammenhang gebracht mit modernen und dynamischen Bereichen wie biochemische Prozesse, Materialwissenschaften und Molekularelektronik. Zusammenfassung This encyclopedia offers a comprehensive and easy reference to physical organic chemistry (POC) methodology and techniques. Topics covered include not only traditional POC like reaction kinetics and mechanisms, but also subjects in many other related fields where the principles of POC have been widely implemented.
