Practical Process Research and Development: A Guide for Organic Chemists

By Neal G. Anderson

Practical Process Research and Development: A Guide for Organic Chemists, Third Edition provides a concise, comprehensive, step-by-step framework to support understanding and implement organic process research and development in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical, and agricultural chemical industries. Neal G. Anderson has heavily updated the book once again for its third edition, whilst retaining the basic spirit and structure of the first two editions. The book describes the steps taken following synthesis and evaluation to bring key compounds to market in a cost-effective manner. He describes hands-on, step-by-step, approaches to solving process development problems, including route, reagent, and solvent selection, optimising catalytic reactions, chiral syntheses, and green chemistry. Practical Process Research and Development: A Guide for Organic Chemists, Third Edition is written primarily for organic, medicinal, pharmaceutical, and chemical process development chemists as well as chemical engineers- it is well suited for beginners at upper undergraduate and graduate student level and early career researchers who need an accessible insight into industrial process R&D.
