The Chemists’ Cookbook: A practical handbook of 201 named reactions for advanced students and researchers of synthetic organic chemistry (NROChemistry)

Ideal for advanced chemistry students, academics, and industry professionals, The Chemists' Cookbook is more than a reference. It's a trusted companion for your laboratory and research work.The Chemists' Cookbook includes an introduction by Professor Erick Carreira and a foreword by Professor Phil Baran, underscoring its significance to the field of synthetic organic chemistry.Chemistry students and researchers seeking a detailed guide to reactions widely used in organic synthesis will find this book useful. Each entry is designed to inform and support chemists in their journey, with reaction examples pulled from groundbreaking work in natural product synthesis and drug development.This essential reference book arranges reactions alphabetically and by type, highlighting target molecules, reaction conditions, isomer ratios, reported yields, references to source articles, and experimental procedures. Additional notes discuss the practical scope and utility of each reaction, covering modifications, intermediate structures, and, in some cases, reaction mechanisms. These entries not only demonstrate the chemistry involved but also clarify its real-world applications, making it an invaluable resource for chemists at every level.What You'll Find Inside:201 named reactions covering essential synthetic methods.500+ unique transformations offering a wide variety of applications.350+ experimental procedures drawn from primary literature, ready for the lab.The book’s final section groups reactions by categories, enabling readers to quickly identify transformations for specific functional groups, providing unmatched convenience and ease of use.What people say about The Chemists' Cookbook:“A labor of love for the science of synthesis... I am convinced The Chemists’ Cookbook will find resonance in the community and will surely be around for the foreseeable future for the next generation of synthetic chemists.”— Erick Carreira, Professor of Chemistry“A resource that will stand the test of time... It is a book that should be on the desk of every chemist, whether they are beginning their journey or are well-established in the field.”— Phil Baran, Professor of Chemistry“A unique combination of relevant theory and practical instructions that can be directly applied in laboratory work. The logical organization of reactions at the end of the book makes it easy to quickly find the information I need.”— Patrycja Łazarska, Medicinal Chemistry Student“Use this book as if it was your senior colleague who knows 201 different transformations and has performed all of them, successfully.”— Michela Marcon, Scientist at SelvitaAbout the AuthorDr. Lluís Llorens Palomo is a senior scientist at Selvita and the founder of NROChemistry, an educational platform dedicated to organic chemistry. Dr. Llorens Palomo earned his Ph.D. from the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia (ICIQ) in 2019 and has since dedicated his career to advancing chemical education.The Chemists’ Cookbook will save you time and provide you with all the necessary ingredients and instructions to execute some of the most frequently used named reactions in organic synthesis.
