Organic Reactions is a collection of chapters, each devoted to a single reaction or a definitive phase of a reaction of wide applicability, with particular attention given to limitations, interfering influences, effects of structure, and the selection of experimental techniques.

Volume 70 includes two chapters, the first takes a look at the Catalytic Asymmetric Strecker Reaction, the second at the Synthesis of Phenols and Quinones via Fischer Carbene Complexes.

• Includes tables that contain all possible examples of the reactions under consideration
• Each reaction is fully referenced to the primary literature
