Second Supplements to the 2nd Edition of Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volume IV: Heterocyclic Compounds: Part F: Six-membered Heterocyclic Compounds with a single Hetero-Atom in the Ring; Pyridine, Quinoline, Isoquinoline and their Derivatives. Part G: Six-membered Heterocyclic Compounds with (a) a single Nitrogen Atom in the Ring (cont'd): Polycyclic Fused Ring Compounds, (b) an Atom of Phosphorus, Arsenic, Antimony or Bismuth. Alaloids with a Six-membered Heterocyclic Ring. (Chapters 28-33 in this volume)

Hardbound. The publication of this volume covers current work on the syntheses and reactions of pyridines, quinolines and isoquinolines. Also included are chapters (chapters 28, 30, 31 and 32) which review recent progress in the chemistry of the pyridine, quinoline and isoquinoline alkaloids. The theoretical aspects of pyridine chemistry, which were covered in a separate chapter (chapter 23) in the 2nd Edition, are now incorporated into a separate single chapter (chapter 24), without division.Recent developments in the chemistry of six-membered heterocycles containing a single phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, or bismuth atom are also surveyed. Once again, the reader of Rodd will find this volume extremely valuable since it provides a concise, yet complete, survey of a major subject area of heterocyclic chemistry.

1996 This new Volume of "Rodd" continues to be a major service to organic chemistry... The chapters are uniformly well written...they should be standard component of any good organic chemical library. -- Philip D. Magnus, Journal of the Americal Chemical Society
