Microwaves in Chemistry Applications: Fundamentals, Methods and Future Trends

Microwave Chemistry offers a number of benefits over conventional heating technologies, including acceleration of reaction rates, milder reaction conditions, higher chemical yields, lower energy usage and different reaction selectivity, all of which can improve the sustainability of processes.  Microwave Chemistry provides a valuable insight into the underlying chemistry at play in microwave-assisted processes, introducing fundamental concepts, discussing the modelling of reactions in such processes, and highlighting a range of key methods and applications of microwaves in chemistry for improved sustainability. Beginning with an introduction to microwave chemistry, Part 1 discusses foundational principles, equipment, and approaches for modelling reactions and assessing the outputs of those models. Methods in microwave chemistry are then the focus of Part 2, with microwave-assisted synthesis, catalysis, reduction and reactions all explored in detail. Part 3 then reflects on the practical usage of these methods to address specific issues, covering a number of interesting applications. Drawing on the knowledge of its expert authors, Microwave Chemistry provides clear guidance on understanding, modeling, interpreting and applying microwave-based approaches for all those interested in better utilizing this technology in their own work.
