PATAI's Chemistry of Functional Groups The Chemistry of Hypervalent Halogen Compounds Part 1 A series of advanced treatises founded by Professor Saul Patai and now under the general editorship of Professors Zvi Rappoport, Joel F. Liebman and Ilan Marek 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, and biological, biochemical, and environmental aspects. To date, over 140 volumes, including the update series, have been published in the series.
