A comprehensive survey of the field, this second edition has been thoroughly revised to include new material on nucleophilic aromatic substitution and organometallic reactions and reorganized for greater ease of use. The number of references has increased by more than 50%. Starting with a thorough discussion on the underlying physicochemical principles and extending through applications in various fields of synthesis, this book is written with the practicing chemist in mind and provides typical experimental procedures for more frequently used applications of phase transfer catalysis.

From the Publisher:

This third edition describes important new developments in PTC. Especially useful to both newcomers and experts is the comprehension list of more than 3000 references.

From the Back Cover:

E. V. Dehmlow, S. S. Dehmlow Phase Transfer Catalysis Third, Revised and Enlarged Edition Phase Transfer Catalysis has matured, and so has this book. Certain PTC-variants have become standard techniques in the lab, and PTC may be on the brink of large-scale use. The new edition describes important new developments in PTC. Furthermore, it has been extensively updated and offers a comprehensive list of very recent references. New material has been added on

• solid/liquid PTC
• enantioselective reactions
• metal-organic reactions
• reduction and oxidation reactions
• elimination and substitution reactions
