The Chemistry of Organoaluminum Compounds

PATAI's Chemistry of Functional Groups publishes comprehensive reviews on all aspects of specific functional groups. Each volume contains outstanding surveys on theoretical and computational aspects, NMR, MS, other spectroscopic methods and analytical chemistry, structural aspects, thermochemistry, photochemistry, synthetic approaches and strategies, synthetic uses and applications in chemical and pharmaceutical industries, biological, biochemical and environmental aspects. To date, over 140 volumes have been published in the series.
This first volume on organoaluminum compounds in the series complements the recently published volumes on other areas of organometallic synthesis, notably the volumes on organoiron, organolithium, organozinc, organocopper and organomanganese compounds.Das Wissen um funktionelle Gruppen ist der Schlüssel, um die organische Chemie zu verstehen. In der Tradition von Patai Chemistry of Functional Groups behandelt jeder Band sämtliche Aspekte funktioneller Gruppen. Jeder Band bietet eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Kapitel, die sich mit theoretischen, analytischen, synthetischen, biologischen, biochemischen und industriellen Gesichtspunkten beschäftigen.
Band 1 zum Thema der aluminiumorganischen Verbindungen ergänzt die kürzlich veröffentlichten Bände zu anderen Bereichen der organometallischen Synthese, d. h. zu Organo-Eisen-, Organo-Lithium, Organo-Zink-, Organo-Kupfer- und Organo-Mangan-Verbindungen.
Wie bei allen neuen Bänden, werden die Kapitel zuerst online in Patai Chemistry of Functional Groups veröffentlicht. Sobald ein Band online vollständig ist, folgt die Printausgabe. Die Printversion entspricht der von Patai gewohnten Qualität und beinhaltet auch einen umfangreichen Index.

Ilan Marek is Professor of Chemistry at the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. He was educated in France and received his PhD thesis in 1988 from the University Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris. He has been visiting Professor at the University de Montreal (Canada); University of Strasbourg (France); University Paris-Descartes (France); California Institute of Technology (USA) and at the Ecole Nationale Superieure de Chimie de Montpellier (France). He was a member of the International Scientific Committee of the European Symposium on Organic Chemistry (ESOC), including the position of Chairman (2007-2009) and is currently the chairman of the division of organic chemistry, European Association of Chemical and Molecular Sciences (EuCheMS).

Laurent Micouin leads the research unit "Diversity and Selectivity in Synthesis" at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences at Descartes University in Paris (France). He received his academic degrees from the Ecole Nationale Superieure de Chimie and from Paris University, followed by a postdoctorate at the University of Marburg (Germany). The focus of his research is in novel methods for organic synthesis, in the fields of asymmetric synthesis and organometallic chemistry.

A series of advanced treatises founded by Professor Saul Patai and now under the general editorship of Professors Ilan Marek, Zvi Rappoport and Joel F. Liebman
