Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volume II: Alicyclic Compounds surveys advances in the chemistry of three- to six-membered monocarbocycles from 1973 to 1991. This book begins with a detailed review of the conformations and stereochemical analyses of alicycles, including higher members of the series, and then proceeds to deal with the chemistry of individual ring systems. The next chapters cover the prostaglandins and their allies and natural products bearing a cyclohexane, cyclohexene, or cyclohexadiene ring system. A review of the chemistry of the cyclohexadienes and their metallic complexes is provided at the end. This text also includes a list of common abbreviations and symbols. This volume benefits chemical engineering students, particularly those studying the components of organic chemicals.

Hardbound. The theme of this volume is alicyclic chemistry, which is a very broad area embracing natural products such as terpenes, steroids and carotenoids and an array of synthetic compounds, including both medium size and large ring monocycles and polycycles. Much of this supplement deals with the chemistry of terpenoids, a subject which has received considerable interest following the discovery of many new structural types with wide-ranging biological activities.
