近年になって急速に発展し、2005年ノーベル化学賞の受賞理由になるなど有機合成において重要な位置を占めるようになったオレフィン・メタセシス反応について、最新の成果に基づいて多角的に論じる注目の本が出版されます。

本書の第1部は、さまざまな種類のオレフィン・メタセシス反応とその応用法を詳述します。続く第2部は、触媒を中心に、同反応で用いられる有用なツールやテクニックを取り上げます。さらに巻末には触媒と基質の適合性チャート、市販の触媒の構造と性質、NMRデータなど便利な図表がまとめられ、研究時に手元に置いておきたい一冊となっています。

編者Karol Grelaはワルシャワ大学教授で、Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry 誌の “Progress in Metathesis Chemistry” 特集号の編集も務めた当分野の有力な専門家です。
