Photochemistry of organic compounds - Petr Kln

Photochemistry of Organic Compounds: From Concepts toPractice provides a hands-on guide demonstrating the underlyingprinciples of photochemistry and, by reference to a range oforganic reaction types, its effective use in the synthesis of neworganic compounds and in various applications.

The book presents a complete and methodical approach to thetopic,

• Working from basic principles, discussing key techniques andstudies of reactive intermediates, and illustrating syntheticphotochemical procedures.
• Incorporating special topics and case studies covering variousapplications of photochemistry in chemistry, environmentalsciences, biochemistry, physics, medicine, and industry.
• Providing extensive references to the original literature andto review articles.
• Concluding with a chapter on retrosynthetic photochemistry,listing key reactions to aid the reader in designing their ownsynthetic pathways.

This book will be a valuable source of information andinspiration for postgraduates as well as professionals from a widerange of chemical and natural sciences.
