ePatai – a wealth of invaluable content onlineEach volume contains detailed information on the chemistry of the functional group, with the following topics featured in each volume:• General, theoretical and computational aspects of the functional group, for example, quantum chemical treat-

ment, structural and conformational chemistry, thermochemistry• Characterization and characteristics of functional groups with chapters covering both qualitative and

quantitative methods of determination, such as UV, IR, NMR, ESR, PES, RD, CD and mass spectrometry. It will also cover the basicity, acidity or the complex forming ability of the group

• The formation of the functional group and the reactions, transformations and rearrangements which the func-tional group can undergo, also including synthesis and reactions mechanisms as diverse as photochemistry, radiation chemistry, biochemical formation or classic synthesis and catalysis

• The biological aspects in both biochemistry and molecular biology as well as its application in medicinal chemis-try, drug development and drug discovery

• Data and reviews on the important industrial applications in fields such as polymers, materials and nano-materials

Saul Patai, was responsible for the Series from 1964 to 1998. He had the help of a range of editors including Zvi Rappoport, and the Series expanded from covering classi-cal functional groups such as alkenes, ethers, carboxylic acids and esters to the chemistry of metal-carbon bonds. He truly established the Series as a major resource for all chemis-try students and researchers. In the last years before his death he co-edited a lot of volumes together with Zvi Rappoport and prepared Zvi for his future role as Editor-in-Chief.

Zvi Rappoport, edited the Series from 1999 to 2013 (co-editing with Saul Patai from 1992 to 1998). In this time the Series changed from a print publi-cation to an online publication. For this purpose he created an Editorial Board and together with Joel Liebman and Ilan Marek they managed to continue editing 2 – 3 full volumes per year. In addition they also had the help of guest editors, including Jacob Zabicky, Ytzhak Apeloig and Alexander Greer. At the end of 2013 Zvi Rappoport retires as Editor-in-Chief, but he will continue to support his successor.

Ilan Marek, will take over from Zvi Rappoport in 2014 and will be responsible for the future development of the Series. He will continue to have the support from Zvi Rappoport and Joel Liebman, and he will also continue with the tradition to get the help from guest editors to edit specific themes and top-ics. Currently he is editing with Zvi Rap-poport and Joel Liebman, a volume on The Chemistry of organogold compounds. This volume will be published in 2014 celebrating the 50th anniversary of the publication of The chemistry of alkenes.

Patai’s Chemistry of Functional Groups

Outer spread

The most complete resource in functional group chemistry now including

Providing indispensable information for the organic chemist for 50 yearsPATAI’s Chemistry of Functional Groups is a remarkable collection of content covering the key aspects of the chemistry of each functional group, written by the leaders in the field over the last 50 years. All volumes are available online as a fully searchable, fully updating electronic reference work. ePatai contains all volumes published from 1995 onwards, with pre-1995 titles available within the Patai Online Book Series.

The Beginnings of the SeriesIt all started around 1963, a year after a young student, Zvi Rappo-port, finished his PhD work under the supervision of Saul Patai at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Around the same time Arnold Weissberger, a scientist working for Kodak and as an Editor for Inter-science/John Wiley & Sons, invited Saul Patai to write or edit a book in the field of Carbon-Carbon Double Bonds. At this time there were no books available on this topic and Saul Patai realised the potential for a Series on “The Chemistry of Functional Groups” and indeed, in 1964 a first volume on The Chemistry of alkenes was published. In the foreword to this first volume in the Series, Saul Patai wrote:

“…We hope that a series of advanced treatises on the chemistry of the functional groups will be a useful and valuable addition to the literature of organic chemistry, and the present volume is the first in this planned series.”

Celebrating 50 Years of Excellence 1964 - 2014

“For me, the Patai series is the definitive resource and my first choice when I want to learn something about a functional group; it is the genome of functional groups.”Professor Scott E Denmark, Reynold C Fuson Professor of Chemistry, University of Illinois

“I have been using Patai since my undergraduate days. Functional groups are important for the understanding of organic chemistry and the knowledge of functional group interconversions is central to the basic principles of chemical reactivity.” Professor Peter Wipf, University of Pittsburgh

The PhilosophyPATAI’s Chemistry of Functional Groups puts functional groups at the centre. The term “functional groups” is used in the widest possible definition and reaches from carbon-carbon double bonds to metal-organic bonds. With the functional group at the centre of presentation it then describes in detail all aspects of theoretical chemistry, analytical chemistry, physical organic chemistry, synthesis, biological chemistry and drug research, industrial chemistry as well as spectroscopic properties re-lated to the group and structural chemistry of compounds carrying the group. All articles treat their subject in depth, usually with hundreds of references and are a unique resource for all chemists.

ePatai continues to be the definitive resource for functional groupsIn 2010, 58,000 pages of content published online in the Patai Online Book Series, and 27,000 pages of content within ePatai, with content from over 520 international contributors. ePatai continues to grow year on year, with new content added article by article until a volume is complete. Over 2,750 new pages have been added online during 2011 and 2012.

The introduction of THE SMART ARTICLE in 2013 will enhance ePatai even further, ensuring it remains a key working reference for the lab or the library for future researchers.

“A 21st century facelift turns the series into a fully searchable major online reference resource with additional functionality and search facilities. For information professionals including students, chemistry researchers, academics and industry based organic chemists the world over, the Patai series has long been synonymous with reliable expert opinion. But what a difference adding the “e” makes. Now, the long-standing reference work can provide labs and libraries around the globe with instant access to a wealth of invaluable content – straight to their desktop.

With its critical and up-to-date information, ePatai is a must for any chemical library. Organic chemists will have accessed the traditional Patai series so this current, online and cross-search-able resource is something they won’t want to be without.”

Saul Patai, was responsible for the Series from 1964 to 1998. He had the help of a range of editors including Zvi Rappoport, and the Series expanded from covering classi-cal functional groups such as alkenes, ethers, carboxylic acids and esters to the chemistry of metal-carbon bonds. He truly established the Series as a major resource for all chemis-try students and researchers. In the last years before his death he co-edited a lot of volumes together with Zvi Rappoport and prepared Zvi for his future role as Editor-in-Chief.

Zvi Rappoport, edited the Series from 1999 to 2013 (co-editing with Saul Patai from 1992 to 1998). In this time the Series changed from a print publi-cation to an online publication. For this purpose he created an Editorial Board and together with Joel Liebman and Ilan Marek they managed to continue editing 2 – 3 full volumes per year. In addition they also had the help of guest editors, including Jacob Zabicky, Ytzhak Apeloig and Alexander Greer. At the end of 2013 Zvi Rappoport retires as Editor-in-Chief, but he will continue to support his successor.

Ilan Marek, will take over from Zvi Rappoport in 2014 and will be responsible for the future development of the Series. He will continue to have the support from Zvi Rappoport and Joel Liebman, and he will also continue with the tradition to get the help from guest editors to edit specific themes and top-ics. Currently he is editing with Zvi Rap-poport and Joel Liebman, a volume on The Chemistry of organogold compounds. This volume will be published in 2014 celebrating the 50th anniversary of the publication of The chemistry of alkenes.

ePatai – a wealth of invaluable content onlineEach volume contains detailed information on the chemistry of the functional group, with the following topics featured in each volume:• General, theoretical and computational aspects of the functional group, for example, quantum chemical treat-

ment, structural and conformational chemistry, thermochemistry• Characterization and characteristics of functional groups with chapters covering both qualitative and

quantitative methods of determination, such as UV, IR, NMR, ESR, PES, RD, CD and mass spectrometry. It will also cover the basicity, acidity or the complex forming ability of the group

• The formation of the functional group and the reactions, transformations and rearrangements which the func-tional group can undergo, also including synthesis and reactions mechanisms as diverse as photochemistry, radiation chemistry, biochemical formation or classic synthesis and catalysis

• The biological aspects in both biochemistry and molecular biology as well as its application in medicinal chemis-try, drug development and drug discovery

• Data and reviews on the important industrial applications in fields such as polymers, materials and nano-materials

Saul Patai, was responsible for the Series from 1964 to 1998. He had the help of a range of editors including Zvi Rappoport, and the Series expanded from covering classi-cal functional groups such as alkenes, ethers, carboxylic acids and esters to the chemistry of metal-carbon bonds. He truly established the Series as a major resource for all chemis-try students and researchers. In the last years before his death he co-edited a lot of volumes together with Zvi Rappoport and prepared Zvi for his future role as Editor-in-Chief.

Zvi Rappoport, edited the Series from 1999 to 2013 (co-editing with Saul Patai from 1992 to 1998). In this time the Series changed from a print publi-cation to an online publication.
