BOOK REVIEWS and gas phase chromatography. Paper chromatography is mentioned, but thin layer chromatography is not. Tho chapter on gas chromatography provides a brief, but valueble, introduction to t,hw practical aspects of this technique, and includes det,ailod directions for tho construction of s n inexpensive chromatograph. Similarly, the 11-page chapter on liquid phase column chromatogmphy is gratifying in the amount of useful information which it contains. The ten chapters an advanced syntheses include slkyl halides, nitriles, enolate eondensstions, alkylation of malonic ester, monoesters of dibltsic acids, electrolytic reduction, Friedel-Crafts zcylation, hypohalite oxidation, the Grignard reagent, and indoles. Four appendixes and a thorough index complete the volume. The printing is easy to read and the sketches arc very clear. This vnlume can be highly recommended, particularly in cases where the users will have occasion to need bath Parts I and 11.
