Science of Synthesis 3.6

Release Date: 25 August, 2008

We are pleased to announce that version 3.6 of Science of Synthesis is now available for licensed customers.

With this new release, the electronic information resource now contains 38 volumes, out of what will eventually be a total of 48 volumes. This upgraded version has a total of 215,000 reactions, with over 20,000 new reactions. The newly added content consists of:

The addition of volume 44 starts the last category of Science of Synthesis, All-Carbon Functions.

"It is the consistent quality of the content in Science of Synthesis, as well as its usefulness and applicability in solving everyday synthetic organic chemistry problems encountered in the laboratory, that sets this reference work apart. The additional four volumes added to this release cover the synthetic methodology used in the preparation of some of the most common and important functional groups used in organic synthesis (e.g., ethers, hydroxyl group), as well as some of the more unusual and challenging functionalities (e.g., allenes), and those functionalities considered important for industrial research (e.g., organosulfur compounds)," states M. Fiona Shortt de Hernandez, Managing Editor Science of Synthesis.

Professor
John Colin Tatlow
(1923–2008)

We are very sorry to announce that Professor John Colin Tatlow passed away on April 9th, 2008. Professor Tatlow was the Editor-in-Chief of the E10 Organo-Fluorine Compounds (Houben–Weyl) series and made a major contribution to fluorine chemistry during his career. He was the recipient of the American Chemical Society Award for Creative Work in Fluorine Chemistry in 1990. We would like to extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Thieme IUPAC Prize
