The didactic presentation of the material makes this book an essential bench-top tool not only for specialists in organic chemistry, but also for students and all those involved in the preparation of organic molecules. Key Features: 
- a critical survey of the most used protecting groups, as used by organic chemists 
- organization based on functional groups: hydroxyl ; diol; carbonyl; carboxyl; amine 
- special emphasis placed on deprotection conditions applied to complex structures where selectivity is a prime issue 
- transformations accompanied by key experimental details 
- examples from the recent literature span a wide domain of organic synthesis 
- over 500 schemes aid visual retrieval - end-of-chapter list reviews which amplify topics covered.

In this reference for synthetic chemists and students, Kocienski (organic chemistry, University of Leeds) provides an overview of the application of protecting groups in contemporary syntheses and deals with the protection of the various core functional groups. Chapters cover carbonyl, diol, hydroxyl, thiol, carboxyl, phosphate, and amino protecting groups. This edition contains two new chapters on thiol and phosphate protecting groups, plus new examples, and references now cover the period 1990-2001. An epilog of 25 problems is also new.
