The nitro group in organic synthesis - Ono, Noboru (Wiley-VCH, 2001)
Includes bibliographical references and index
The most useful reactions of organonitro compounds in organic synthesis of natural products and other complex organic molecules. The Nitro Group in Organic Synthesis focuses on reactions that proceed under mild conditions, important functional groups that can be synthesized by conversion of nitro groups, and the stereoselectivity of reactions of nitro compounds. These issues are of great importance to practicing researchers in today's pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries
