Science of Synthesis Knowledge Updates

Science of Synthesis is continuously updated with high-quality content using clearly defined criteria for method selection as well as established editorial processes

The Editorial Board, in conjunction with the volume editors and authors, reviews the whole field of synthetic organic chemistry as presented in Science of Synthesis and evaluate significant developments in synthetic methodology.

Authors, who are renowned specialists in their respective fields, add new methods and add new (or completely revise existing) product (sub)classes.

A list of all of the chapters that have been updated in Science of Synthesis so far is available here (pdf).
