Description / Table of Contents:
This book examines 20,000 aromatic compounds researched since 1972 and assembled from all relevant journals. The author focuses on biotransformation in animals, plants, and microbes while remaining in the scope of aromatic compounds that contain at least one aromatic C6 ring. He lists each compound and its forward and reverse mechanisms in Part One and characterizes the different types of organic reactions and the enzymes associated with those reactions in Part Two. A searchable CD-ROM covering aromatic compounds researched from 1900 through 1972 is included. The most complete resource of its kind, this book is a user-friendly handbook for professionals, policymakers, and researchers.
