Modern Fluoroorganic Chemistry

For the second edition, this book has been completely revised and updated, as well as enlarged to reflect the latest developments in synthetic organic fluorine chemistry, plus novel applications in materials science and medicinal chemistry. In addition, new chapters have been added on such important applications as organic electronics (LEDs) and fluorinated dyes. A valuable reference for fluorine chemists while also providing non-specialists with an introduction to the field. "... a well-produced book with attractive graphics, photos and schemes. Throughout the book, coloured electrostatic maps of small organofluorine compounds are used to illustrate charge distributions. These are effective as well as attractive. I would point any organic chemist to this book who wants to learn about and do some fluorine chemistry. It provides uncluttered descriptions and a clear orientation to the literature in this important area of the organic chemistry." CHEMBIOCHEM - A European Journal of Chemical Biology
