Synthetic Organic Photochemistry

"With contributions from 24 international subject authorities, Synthetic Organic Photochemistry comprises a leading-edge presentation of the most recent and in-demand applications of photochemical methodologies. Outlining a wide assortment of reaction types entailing cycloadditions, cyclizations, isomerizations, rearrangements, and other organic syntheses, this reference also ties in critical considerations that overlap in modern photochemistry and organic chemistry, such as stereoselectivity."--BOOK JACKET.
