USDSpecifically dedicated to the synthesis, properties and reactions of amines, this up-to-date resource demonstrates the importance of amines to life, and provides a short history of the development of ammonia synthesis and of amine chemistry from the 19th century to the present day. Practical synthetic and analytical methods are presented for laboratory preparation and detection of amines and their role in industry is reviewed. The work will be an invaluable reference for undergraduates and postgraduates, and for chemical researchers working in industry.
- Covers the chemistry and properties of all types of amines in a single book, plus all of the important synthesis and reactions of amines
- Discusses application of amines in a variety of industries
- Written by a chemist with over 20 years of practical experience with amines
