Chamberlain J.S. Textbook of Organic Chemistry

Blackiston, 1934. — 1008 p.In attempting to correlate theoretical principles with industrial practice the author has not done more than to mention, in cases where it seems desirable, the fact that a given synthesis is the basis of industrial processes. No effort has been made, in most cases, to describe the technical procedure. In a few of the more common processes some description of the industrial procedure is given, but without any claim that it is exact in minute detail. It is important to mphasize
the fact, that oftentimes in industrial practice, reactions while no doubt following the course worked out in the laboratory, are nevertheless frequently shortened by doubling up or by changing physical conditions, so that the process and the laboratory synthesis seem to be quite distinct.
