Arene Chemistry: Reaction Mechanisms and Methods for Aromatic Compounds

Organized to enable students and synthetic chemists to understand and expand on aromatic reactions covered in foundation courses, the book offers a thorough and accessible mechanistic explanation of aromatic reactions involving arene compounds.

• Surveys methods used for preparing arene compounds and their transformations
• Connects reactivity and methodology with mechanism
• Helps readers apply aromatic reactions in a practical context by designing syntheses
• Provides essential information about techniques used to determine reaction mechanisms
