Organic Synthesis: The Roles of Boron and Silicon cover

Compounds of boron and silicon are widely used in organic synthesis, and their study forms a core part of undergraduate chemistry courses. This concise text describes the properties and reactions of organoboranes and organosilanes, emphasizing how they can be used to provide simple solutions to a variety of synthetic problems. Helpful study questions are provided at the end of each section, and the suggested further reading provides a useful guide to more advanced work in the field.
