DICOORDINATED CARBOCATIONS

The first title in this area in many years, this title brings together all the areas of interest in organic reactions involving carbocations in one handy volume. It covers new areas such as nuclear decay generation, synthetic applications and NMR observations. Also included is extensive and detailed coverage of theoretical and gas phase data.
