In a shocking display, Det takes down Hale so that she, Rell, and Mason can reach the HaloGen ship and escape. As they make their way back to Cityship Q, Rell has to figure out what to do with Det.

The understanding of functional groups is the key to understanding organic chemistry. In the tradition of Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups each volume treats all aspects of functional groups, touching on theoretical, analytical, synthetic, biological, and industrial aspects. Hypervalent halogen compounds, in particular iodine compounds, are very efficient and selective oxidants which tolerate a wide range of functional groups. The electrophilic properties of these reagents can also be used to introduce other functionalizations. The present volume is the first in the series to survey the properties and chemical behaviour of hypervalent iodine and bromine, their use in organic synthesis, as well as their industrial application. As with all new volumes, the chapters are first published online in Patai's Chemistry of Functional Groups. Once a volume is completed online, it is then published in print format. The printed book offers the traditional quality of the Patai Book Series, complete with an extensive index.

Author of the bestselling Everyday Halogen Oven Cookbook. Halogen ovens are perfect when cooking for two as they are so much cheaper to use than a conventional oven. Once you have mastered the basics, this machine will change the way you work in your kitchen. When cooking for two, you no longer have to waste energy heating a conventional oven. You can create amazing dishes with the minimum of fuss, washing up and waste. Nutritionist Sarah Flower, author of best-selling The Everyday Halogen Oven Cookbook and Perfect Baking with your Halogen Oven, is passionate about the benefits of the Halogen Oven. In this book she demonstrates its practicalities and gives you recipes for delicious meals that are up to 40% quicker than with conventional ovens. As with all of Sarah's recipe books, she strives to create wholesome recipes that are simple to follow, easy to prepare and good for you. Many of my readers have contacted me to ask how they could adapt some of the core recipes featured in The Everyday Halogen Oven Cookbook so that they could cook them for two people. I have carefully selected some of the most popular recipes from that book and reworked them to serve two. I have also included a large number of new and exciting recipes which work really well for two - these form the majority of the recipes in this book. If you can t find your favourite recipe from my first book in the following pages but would like it adapted to serve two people please let me know via my website http://www.sarahflower.co.uk/

Long-awaited on the importance of halogen bonding in solution, demonstrating the specific advantages in various fields - from synthesis and catalysis to biochemistry and electrochemistry! Halogen bonding (XB) describes the interaction between an electron donor and the electrophilic region of a halogen atom. Its applicability for molecular recognition processes long remained unappreciated and has mostly been studied in solid state until recently. As most physiological processes and chemical reactions take place in solution, investigations in solutions are of highest relevance for its use in organic synthesis and catalysis, pharmaceutical chemistry and drug design, electrochemistry, as well as material synthesis. Halogen Bonding in Solution gives a concise overview of halogen bond interactions in solution. It discusses the history and electronic origin of halogen bonding and summarizes all relevant examples of its application in organocatalysis. It describes the use of molecular iodine in catalysis and industrial applications, as well as recent developments in anion transport and binding. Hot topic: Halogen bonding is an important interaction between molecules or within a molecule. The field has developed considerably in recent years, with numerous different approaches and applications having been published. Unique: There are several books on halogen bonding in solid state available, but this will be the first one focused on halogen bonding in solution. Multi-disciplinary: Summarizes the history and nature of halogen bonding in solution as well as applications in catalysis, anion recognition, biochemistry, and electrochemistry. Aimed at facilitating exciting future developments in the field, Halogen Bonding in Solution is a valuable source of information for researchers and professionals working in the field of supramolecular chemistry, catalysis, biochemistry, drug design, and electrochemistry.
