Essential Reagents for Organic Synthesis (eBook)

Professor Philip L. Fuchs from Purdue University, West Lafayette, USA. Professor André B. Charette from Montréal University, Canada. Professor Tomislav Rovis from Colorado State University, Fort Collins, USA. Professor Jeffrey W. Bode from the ETH - Swiss Institute of Technology, Zurich, Switzerland. Are the current editors of EROS, the Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis. EROS was founded by Leo Paquette in 1995. Since then it has grown into the largest collection of its kind, covering close to 5,000 different organic-chemical reagents and catalysts.
