his book explores the unique place that nucleophilic displacement reactions occupy in organic chemistry and offers scientists a better understanding of the reactions by determining the factors influencing reaction rates. An overview chapter opens this volume and is followed by chapters grouped into five sections: • Marcus Theory. Alkyl Transfer, and Gas-Phase Reactions • Bronsted Equation, Hard-Soft Acid-Base Theory, and Factors in Nucleophiiicity • Linear Free-Energy Relationships for Solvent Nucleophiiicity • Novel Nucleophilic Reactions • Enhancement of Nucleophiiicity
ublic concern has grown steadily over the past three decades concerning the effects of pest control chemicals on human health and environmental quality. These chemicals are currently regulated by a legislative mandate based on risk assessment and risk management. This new book takes a penetrating look at the need for improved risk assessment and management through new research, new technology, and the application of that technology. The editors have divided the book into four major sections covering:
• • • •
toxicology pests chemicals potential hazards
Specific topics covered include the following: • • • • • • •
toxicology requirements for pesticide registration acute and chronic toxicity simulation modeling in toxicology environmental mobility principles public education concerning risks effects of mass media on public perceptions pests as part of the ecosystem
