Publisher's Synopsis
Non-Aqueous Solvents: Applications As Media For Chemical Reactions is a comprehensive book written by Ludwig Frederick Audrieth. The book explores the use of non-aqueous solvents as media for chemical reactions. It covers a wide range of topics related to non-aqueous solvents, including their properties, applications, and limitations. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of non-aqueous solvents.The first chapter provides an introduction to non-aqueous solvents and their properties. It explains the differences between non-aqueous and aqueous solvents and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using non-aqueous solvents in chemical reactions.The second chapter focuses on the applications of non-aqueous solvents in organic synthesis. It provides detailed information on the use of non-aqueous solvents in various types of organic reactions, such as substitution, addition, elimination, and oxidation-reduction reactions.The third chapter discusses the use of non-aqueous solvents in inorganic chemistry. It covers topics such as the preparation of inorganic compounds, the synthesis of metal complexes, and the use of non-aqueous solvents in electrochemistry.The fourth chapter focuses on the use of non-aqueous solvents in polymer chemistry. It provides information on the preparation of polymers using non-aqueous solvents and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using non-aqueous solvents in polymerization reactions.The fifth chapter covers the use of non-aqueous solvents in biotechnology. It provides information on the use of non-aqueous solvents in the extraction and purification of biomolecules and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using non-aqueous solvents in biotechnological applications.Overall, Non-Aqueous Solvents: Applications As Media For Chemical Reactions is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the use of non-aqueous solvents in chemical reactions. It provides detailed information on the properties, applications, and limitations of non-aqueous solvents and is an essential reference for researchers and students in chemistry, biochemistry, and related fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
