Nucleophilic Substitution in Hexachlorocyclopentadiene

The book is devoted to a broad and critical review of the existing literature on the reactions of partial and complete nucleophilic substitution of chlorine atoms with saturated and unsaturated anions in hexachlorocyclopentadiene. New unusual reactions in the synthesis of economically valuable compounds are shown. Based on these reactions, more convenient and universal ways of synthesizing block synthons for the rational design of pharmacologically important cyclopentanoids (prostanoids) are shown. It is intended for synthetic chemists, as well as university teachers, graduate students, and students of universities and chemical colleges.
