"Compendium of Organic Synthetic Methods, Vols. I & II" is written by Ian T. Harrison and Shuyen Harrison. Volume I is complete one-volume compilation of organic functional group transformations and it includes 3000 synthetic methods presented in the form of reactions with leading references. It is divided into sections corresponding to all possible interconversions between the major functional groups: acetylene, carboxylic acid, alcohol, aldehyde, etc. Other parts deal with the protection of carboxylic acids, alcohols, aldehydes, aminos, and ketones. Volume II presents the preparations for all monofunctional compounds published between 1971 and 1974, plus findings of earlier years to provide a valuable supplement to Volume I.
