Photochemistry

As a scientific discipline, photochemistry generates more than 1200 articles and reviews a year across a range of fields. Keeping up with the literature can be difficult, but Specialist Periodical Reports present an informed view of the latest thinking and research in the field.
The latest and 42nd volume in the series has a special emphasis on organic and computational aspects of photochemistry, drawn from the literature published in 2012 and 2013. Several chapters are devoted to comprehensive and critical reviews of various organic compounds and functional groups. One chapter is devoted to photoclick chemistry, another on continuous flow photochemical reactions. New methods for excited state energies and properties are also examined, as are new approaches to singlet oxygen photosensitisation in biological media and functions containing a heteroatom different from oxygen.
Photochemistry provides essential reading for anyone wishing to keep up to date with the literature or gain a broad appreciation of the field.
