Reduction and oxidation reactions are common in organic synthesis. In
the sense, reducing and oxidizing agents are used for functional group
transformations or interconversions. Numerous reducing and oxidizing
agents are available today. Since we are actively engaged in synthetic
organic chemistry, we came up with a thought to bring all reducing and
oxidizing agents in a single window.
Most of the textbooks available today in market on reduction and
oxidation have limited information on mechanisms. Besides, they are
limited to few reducing and oxidizing agents. This point of view again
motivated us to write a specialized book on reduction and oxidation.
Our vision is to provide mechanisms to almost all reactions mentioned in
the textbook, so that under graduate and postgraduate students of Indian
as well as foreign universities can easily understand the mechanisms of
oxidations and reductions. Besides, this textbook is useful to students for
the preparation of competitive examinations like National Eligibility Test
and State Lectureship Eligibility Test in India.
