Organosulfur Chemistry has enjoyed a renaissance of interest over the last few years, fuelled by its impact in the areas of heterocyclic and radical chemistry, and particularly stereocontrolled processes including asymmetric synthesis. One result of this resurgence of interest in the field is a rapidly escalating number of related publications. This volume is intended to provide coverage of some of the highlights of contemporary organosulfur chemistry chosen from the entire range of current activity.
