Preparation of Alkenes: A Practical Approach

This is one of a series of texts describing the experimental methods needed for the preparation of chemicals. The authors of these chapters share their experiences with chemical reactions to provide background information and invaluable protocol for the synthesis of alkenes. Included are a review of old and new methods for preparing alkenes, easy-to-follow "recipes" that can be used at the bench, references to many examples from the most recent literature, and particular attention to controlling the geometry of alkene synthesis. The material will be very useful to practicing synthetic chemists in academic and industrial laboratories.
