  • Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 100
    • Alan R. Katritzky
    • English
    Established in 1960, Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry is the definitive serial in the area—one of great importance to organic chemists, polymer chemists, and many biological scientists. Written by established authorities in the field, the comprehensive reviews combine descriptive chemistry and mechanistic insight and yield an understanding of how the chemistry drives the properties.
  • Comprehensive Natural Products II

    Chemistry and Biology
    • 1st Edition
    • Lewis Mander + 1 more
    • English
    This work presents a definitive interpretation of the current status of and future trends in natural products—a dynamic field at the intersection of chemistry and biology concerned with isolation, identification, structure elucidation, and chemical characteristics of naturally occurring compounds such as pheromones, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and enzymes. With more than 1,800 color figures, Comprehensive Natural Products II features 100% new material and complements rather than replaces the original work (©1999).
  • Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 44
    • John P. Richard
    • English
    Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry provides the chemical community with authoritative and critical assessments of the many aspects of physical organic chemistry. The field is a rapidly developing one, with results and methodologies finding application from biology to solid state physics.
  • Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 69
    • Graham A. Webb
    • English
    In recent years, no other technique has gained such significance as NMR spectroscopy. It is used in all branches of science in which precise structural determination is required and in which the nature of interactions and reactions in solution is being studied. Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy has established itself as a premier means for the specialist and non-specialist alike to become familiar with new techniques and applications of NMR spectroscopy.
  • Encyclopedia of Spectroscopy and Spectrometry

    • 2nd Edition
    • John C. Lindon
    • English
    The Second Edition of the Encyclopedia of Spectroscopy and Spectrometry pulls key information into a single source for quick access to answers and/or in-depth examination of topics. "SPEC-2" covers theory, methods, and applications for researchers, students, and professionals—combin... proven techniques and new insights for comprehensive coverage of the field. The content is available in print and online via ScienceDirect, the latter of which offers optimal flexibility, accessibility, and usability through anytime, anywhere access for multiple users and superior search functionality. No other work gives analytical and physical (bio)chemists such unprecedented access to the literature. With 30% new content, SPEC-2 maintains the "authoritative, balanced coverage" of the original work while also breaking new ground in spectroscopic research.
  • The Alkaloids

    Chemistry and Biology
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 68
    • English
    This series is world-renowned as the leading compilation of current reviews of this vast field. Internationally acclaimed for more than 40 years, The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Biology, founded by the late Professor R.H.F. Manske, continues to provide outstanding coverage of this rapidly expanding field. Each volume provides, through its distinguished authors, up-to-date and detailed coverage of particular classes or sources of alkaloids.
  • Advances in Carbohydrate Chemistry and Biochemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 63
    • English
    Since its inception in 1945, this serial has provided critical articles written by research specialists that integrate industrial, analytical, and technological aspects of biochemistry, organic chemistry, and instrumentation methodology in the study of carbohydrates.

  • Compendium of Trace Metals and Marine Biota

    Vol 1: Plants and Invertebrates Vol 2: Vertebrates
    • 1st Edition
    • Ronald Eisler
    • English
    Written over a period of several decades by a national and international authority on trace metals in living marine organisms, the compendium on trace metal concentrations in marine plants and invertebrates has two main objectives. The first is to summarize the available world literature on trace metal and metalloid concentrations in tissues of representative field populations of marine, estuarine, and oceanic [elasmobranchs, fishes, reptiles, birds, and mammals] algae and macrophytes, protists, sponges, coelenterates, molluscs, crustaceans, insects, chaetognaths, annelids, echinoderms, and tunicates and their significance to organism health and to the health of their consumers. The following elements are emphasized: aluminum, antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, bismuth, boron, cadmium, cerium, cesium, chromium, cobalt, copper, gallium, germanium, gold, iron, lanthanum, lead, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, rhenium, rhodium, rubidium, ruthenium, selenium, silicon, silver, thallium, tin, titanium, tungsten, vanadium, yttrium, zinc, and zirconium. The second is to synthesize existing information on biological, chemical and physical factors known to modify uptake, retention, and translocation of each element by selected groups of marine organisms under field and laboratory conditions. Recognition of the importance of these modifiers and their accompanying interactions is essential to the understanding of metals kinetics in marine systems and to the interpretation of baseline residue data in marine [vertebrates] plants and invertebrates.
  • Progress in Medicinal Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 48
    • English
    Progress in Medicinal Chemistry provides a review of eclectic developments in medicinal chemistry. This volume continues in the serial's tradition of providing an insight into the skills required of the modern medicinal chemist; in particular, the use of an appropriate selection of the wide range of tools now available to solve key scientific problems.
