Synthetic Pyrethroid Insecticides: Structures and Properties (Chemistry of Plant Protection)

Chemistry of Plant Protection continues the handbook "Chemie der Pflanzenschutz- und Schädlingsbekämpfungsmittel", edited by R. Wegler. Volumes 4 and 5 of the series provide the first complete and in depth overview of synthetic pyrethroid insecticides. Volume 4 incorporates structures and properties, stereochemistry, X-ray derived conformations, many biological data, modes of action, toxicity, application and a chapter on commercial and market aspects. Most developmental and all commercial pyrethroids are listed. Volume 5 presents a detailed survey of the numerous synthetic methods (270 reaction schemes) and of stereochemical aspects of trade products, and a compilation of almost every patent on pyrethroids (2700 references evaluated).Naumann, Klaus is the author of 'Synthetic Pyrethroid Insecticides: Structures and Properties (Chemistry of Plant Protection)', published 2000 under ISBN 9783540513131 and ISBN 3540513132.
