Items related to Esterification: Methods, Reactions, and Applications
Here, Professor J. Otera brings together for the first time the combined knowledge about this elementary yet multifaceted reaction. Starting from the methodical basics right up to practical applications, this book represents a comprehensive overview of this type of reaction, saving readers time-consuming research among the literature and not just in practical matters. It is all set to become a standard reference for every organic chemist. Its contents include: methodology; reaction of alcohols with carboxylic acids and their derivatives; reactions with carboxylic acids; reaction with esters: transesterification; reaction with acid anhydrides; reaction with acid halides and related compounds; conversion of alcohols to esters through carbonylation synthetic applications; kinetic resolution; enzymatic resolution; nonenzymatic resolution; asymmetric desymmetrization; deacetylation through transesterification; selective esterification; applications to natural product synthesis; new reaction media; and industrial uses. CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.

Review:
"...Otera's book does a good job, concisely covering the esterification methodology literature from 1990 to 1999, and that survey will be useful to synthetic organic chemists..." (Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Vol. 43)
