Description: This book describes the experimental methods needed for the preparation of alkenes using many methods. The techniques and procedures used are an important aspect of laboratory work. The methods employed in this practical approach have been carefully reviewed and practical details and tips are offered. In individual chapters the authors share their experience of chemical reactions to provide background information and invaluable protocols for the synthesis ofalkenes. Particular attention is paid to controlling the geometry of alkene synthesis. Easy to follow step-by-step guides which can be used at the bench as well as references to examples in recent literaturemake this an ideal accompaniment for practising synthetic chemists in academic and industrial research.
