Since 1988 there has been much literature published on the chemistry of nitricoxide particularly in the field of Snitrosation and the chemistry of Snitroso compounds. Written by a chemist for the chemistry community this bookprovides an update of the chemistry of nitrosation reactions dealing with boththe synthetic and mechanistic aspects of these reactions. It also looks at thechemistry of nitric oxide in relation to the amazing biological properties ofthis simple diatomic molecule which were unknown until around 1990. Provides an update on previously published literature on nitric oxidechemistry Contains chapters on reagents for nitrosation nitrosation atnitrogen aliphatic and aromatic carbon oxygen sulfur and metal centresLooks at hot research topics such as synthesis properties and reactions of snitrosothiols «
