Unlock the Power of Tellurium in Organic Synthesis
The increasing number of publications that use tellurium clearly demonstrates the important role of tellurium compounds as unique and powerful tools in a broad range of organic chemical manipulations, often characterized by their selective behavior.
Comprehensive Coverage of Organic Tellurium Chemistry
Tellurium in Organic Synthesis provides an overview of the principal aspects of organic tellurium chemistry, with many chapters enriched and updated in this second edition. New chapters include overviews of toxicology and pharmacology and a review on the preparation and reactivity of several tellurium heterocycles.
Practical Applications and Experimental Procedures
The book focuses on the preparation of selected inorganic tellurium compounds and on the main classes of organotellurium compounds. It details the use of these inorganic and organic compounds as reagents to perform specific organic manipulations and synthesis, including reduction, formation and reaction of anionic species, deprotection, tellurium cyclizations, formation of alkenes, use of vinyllic tellurides, free radical chemistry, transmetallations, and removal of tellurium.
- Overview of inorganic and organic tellurium chemistry
