Pignataro B. (Ed.) Ideas in Chemistry and Molecular Sciences: Advances in Synthetic Chemistry

Wiley, 2010. — 325 p.Written by some of the most talented young chemists in Europe, this text covers most of the groundbreaking issues in chemistry. It provides an account of the latest research results in European chemistry based on a selection of leading young scientists participating in the 2008 European Young Chemists Award competition. The contributions range from self-organization to new catalytic synthetic methodologies to organocatalysis. In addition, the authors provide a current overview of their field of research and a preview of future directions.Innovative Processes in Organic Chemistry
