Description

Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds: A Modern Comprehensive Treatise, Second Edition, Volume I, Part B: Monohydric Alcohols: Their Ethers and Esters, Sulfur Analogues, Nitrogen Derivatives, Organometallic Compounds focuses on the reactions, characteristics, transformations, and methodologies involved in halogeno- and nitroalkanols, singly-linked, mono-substituted, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and sulfur analogues of alcohols and their derivatives.
The selection first offers information on the ethers and esters of monohydric alcohols and sulfur analogues of alcohols and their derivatives. Topics include alkyl peroxides, esters of mineral or organic acids, sulfides or thio-esters, alkyl polysulfides, alkylthiosulfuric acids, dialkyl sulfoxides or alkylsulphinylalkanes, and sulfones. The book also considers nitrogen derivatives of aliphatic hydrocarbons, as well as amines and quaternary ammonium compounds, nitro-and nitroso-compounds, and N-substituted derivatives of the alkylamines.
The publication takes a look at aliphatic organometallic and organometalloidal compounds. Discussions focus on beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, and barium, lithium, sodium, potassium, and rubidium, and boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, and thallium.
The text is a valuable reference for readers interested in carbon compounds.
