✦ Synopsis

This book gives a comprehensive overview of modern hydrogenation methods used in organic synthesis.
In clearly structured chapters, the authors cover the catalysts, scope and limitations of their application, and the techniques for hydrogenation of carbon-carbon, carbon-heteroatom and heteroatom-heteroatom multiple bonds.

• Outlines the recent developments in the area.
• Contains detailed experimental guidelines for the discussed hydrogenation methods.
• A smooth mix of academic knowledge and industrial experience, allowing readers to find functional solutions easily.
