Editorial Reviews
Review
Journal of the American Chemistry Society, Vol. 126 No. 14
“…machen dieses Buch zu einem wichtigen Lehrbuch für fortgeschrittene Studenten und Doktoranden. Für Doktoranden, die sich auf Synthese spezialisieren, wird es damit sogar zur Pflichtlektüre…Dank der guten Lesbarkeit macht die Lektüre Spaß und eignet sich damit auch für die Teeküche eines jeden Arbeitskreises in der organischen Chemie.”
