Info autore
Hisashi Yamamoto, born 1943, began his research in Hitosi Nozaki's laboratory at the Kyoto University, Japan. After obtaining his PhD under Elias J. Corey, he joined Toray Industries, Inc., Japan. He has been Professor at the University of Chicago since 2002. Hisashi Yamamoto's work has been widely acknowledged and honored with several academic awards and titles (e.g. Max-Tishler Prize, 1998, Le Grand Prix de la Fondation Maison de la Chimie, 2001, Tetrahedron Chair, 2002). He is on the editorial boards of several outstanding publications including the European Journal of Organic Chemistry and Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis
Riassunto
This two-volume set covers all new developments and, in addition, includes the hot concept of combined Bronsted and Lewis acid catalysis, developed by Hisashi Yamamoto himself. The excellent editorial team has put together an equally top team of expert authors, resulting in a true treasure trove of essential information -- making this a must for every chemist working in organic chemistry and catalysis, in academia as well as in industry.
Relazione
"Acid Catalysis in Modern Organic Synthesis is an excellent reference book that should be available in every well-equipped chemistry library. It will certainly be helpful for many scientists as a guide through the ever-growing jungle of acids catalysis." ( Angewandte Chemie International Edition , January 12, 2009)
