Samenvatting:

Discovered early this century, Grignard reagents remain the most widely--used organometallic compounds. Recent years have seen a steady stream of developments in such areas as the nature of the reagents, the mechanisms by which they react, useful reaction chemistry, and even new types of Grignard reagents.

Publishing 100 years after Grignard proposed his simple procedure for preparing solutions of organomagnesium compounds, leading experts present authoritative perspectives on the current status of 12 areas that have developed significantly in recent years. Contents include:
* New Reactions of Grignard Reagents
* Stereoselective Reactions of Organomagnesium Compounds
* Mechanistic Features of Organomagnesium Compounds
* Industrial Applications and Strategy
* Unusual Organomagnesium Compounds
* Structures of Organomagnesium Solids and Solutions
At the close of its first century, these chapters demonstrate the significant developments that are still taking place using Grignard Reagents and related organomagnesium compounds. Grignard Reagents: New Developments will prove of great interest to academic and industrial chemists active in organometallic chemistry of main group metals, organic syntheses, reaction mechanisms and structural organic chemistry.
