Enols (1990)

As part of the continuing series on The Chemistry of Functional Groups this volume follows the standard format of previous editions, providing details of reactions and comprehensive coverage of the recent literature. Early chapters deal with the theoretical, structural, and stereochemical aspects of Enols, while later chapters explore more specialized topics, including synthesis, photochemistry, Enols of acids and esters, and biochemistry. Content: Chapter 1 Theoretical calculations (pages 1–74): Yitzhak Apeloig Chapter 2 Thermodynamics of enols (pages 75–93): J. Peter Guthrie Chapter 3 The chemistry of ionized enols in the gas phase (pages 95–146): Frantisek Turecek Chapter 4 NMR, IR, conformation and hydrogen bonding (pages 147–305): B. Floris Chapter 5 The generation of unstable enols (pages 307–322): Brian Capon Chapter 6 Keto–enol equilibrium constants (pages 323–398): Jean Toullec Chapter 7 Kinetics and mechanism of enolization and ketonization (pages 399–480): James R. Keeffe and A. Jerry Kresge Chapter 8 Isolable and relatively stable simple enols (pages 481–589): Harold Hart, Zvi Rappoport and Silvio E. Biali Chapter 9 Photochemical reactions involving enols (pages 591–638): Alan C. Weedon Chapter 10 Enols of carboxylic acids and esters (pages 639–650): A. F. Hegarty and P. O'Neill Chapter 11 The biochemistry of enols (pages 651–689): John P.
