Synthesis of Carbon-Phosphorus Bonds

With examples from the literature plus notes from the authors' own experiences, this completely revised and updated second edition is a working guide for use in the lab, incorporating classical approaches with the recent developments of carbon-phosphorus (C-P) bond formation. These advances include the preparation of phosphoranes as well as new approaches to the preparation of compounds with aromatic and vinylic C-P bonds. Detailed surveys of IUPAC, common notation systems, and various experimental examples help to make the book an effective source of critical and annotated references for organic and phosphorus chemists specifically, or for any chemists working with C-P bonds.
