Transition Metal Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of Heterocycles

The series Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry presents critical reviews on present and future trends in the research of heterocyclic compounds. Overall the scope is to cover topics dealing with all areas within heterocyclic chemistry, both experimental and theoretical, of interest to the general heterocyclic chemistry community. The series consists of topic related volumes edited by renowned editors with contributions of experts in the field. All chapters from Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry are published Online First with an individual DOI. In references, Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry is abbreviated as Top Heterocycl Chem and cited as a journal.

Overview chapters introduce the newcomer to the topic covered Series covers hot topics of frontier research summarized by reputed scientists in the field Volumes are useful and of relevance for a long period of time
