Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry

Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry, Volume 53, presents the latest reviews of recent work in physical organic chemistry. It provides a valuable source of information that is ideal not only for physical organic chemists applying their expertise to both novel and traditional problems, but also for non-specialists across diverse areas who identify a physical organic component in their approach to research. Its hallmark is a quantitative, molecular level understanding of phenomena across a diverse range of disciplines. Chapters in this updated release include Theoretical models for activation and reaction energies in chemical reactions, Chiral induction in asymmetric dual catalysis, and The transition state. Reviews the application of quantitative and mathematical methods to help readers understand chemical problemsProvides the chemical community with authoritative and critical assessments of the many aspects of physical organic chemistryCovers organic, organometallic, bioorganic, enzymes and materials topicsPresents the only regularly published resource for reviews in physical organic chemistryWritten by authoritative experts who cover a wide range of topics that require a quantitative, molecular-level understanding of phenomena across a diverse range of disciplines
