PREFACE TO THE
SECOND EDITION
Seven years passed since the publication of the first edition of our book. It is rewarding that the favorable reception of and interest in hydrocarbon chemistry called for a second edition. All chapters were updated (generally considering literature through 2001) by adding sections on recent developments to review new advances and results. Two new chapters were also added on acylation as well as emerging areas and trends (including green chemistry, combinatorial chemistry, fluorous biphase catalysis, solvent-free chemistry, and synthesis via CO2 recycling from the atmosphere). Because of its importance a more detailed treatment of chemical
reduction of CO2 as a source for hydrocarbons is also included in Chapter 3. The new edition should keep our book current and of continuing use for interested readers.
We hope that Hydrocarbon Chemistry will continue to serve its purpose and the goals that we originally intended.

Hydrocarbons and their transformations play a major role in chemistry. Industrial applications, basic to our everyday life, face new challenges from diminishing petroleum supplies, regulatory problems, and environmental concerns. Chemists must find answers to these challenges. Understanding the involved chemistry and finding new approaches is a field of vigorous development.
Hydrocarbon chemistry (i.e., that of carbon- and hydrogen-containing compounds) covers a broad area of organic chemistry that at the same time is also of great practical importance. It includes the chemistry of saturated hydrocarbons (alkanes, cycloalkanes), as well as that of unsaturated alkenes and dienes, acetylenes, and aromatics. Whereas numerous texts and monographs discuss selected areas of the field, a comprehensive up-to-date treatment as an entity encompassing both basic chemistry and practical applications is lacking. The aim of our book is to bring together all major aspects of hydrocarbon chemistry, including fundamental
and applied (industrial) aspects in a single volume. In order to achieve this, it was necessary to be selective, and we needed to limit our discussion.
The book is arranged in 14 chapters. After discussing general aspects, separation of hydrocarbons from natural sources and synthesis from C1 precursors with the most recent developments for possible future applications, each chapter deals with a specific type of transformation of hydrocarbons. Involved fundamental chemistry, including reactivity and selectivity, as well as stereochemical considerations and mechanistic aspects are discussed, as are practical applications. In view of the immense literature, the coverage cannot be comprehensive and is therefore selective, reflecting the authors’ own experience in the field. It was attempted nevertheless to cover all major aspects with references generally until the early 1994.
The chemistry of the major processes of the petrochemical industry, including cracking, reforming, isomerization, and alkylation, is covered in Chapters 2, 4, and 5, respectively. The increasingly important C1 chemistry—that of one-carbon compounds (CO2, CO, methane, and its derivatives)—is discussed in Chapter 3 (Synthesis from C1 sources). Chapter 6 (Addition), Chapter 7 Carbonylation), Chapter 8 (Acylation), and Chapter 10 (Heterosubstitution) deal with derivatization reactions to form carbon– eteroatom bonds. The important broad field of hydrocarbon oxidations is covered in Chapter 9 (Oxidation–oxygenation). Both the chemistry brought about by conventional oxidizing agents and the most recent developments introducing selectively oxygen functionality into hydrocarbons are discussed. The hydrogenation (catalytic and chemical) and reduction techniques (homogeneous catalytic, ionic, and electrochemical) are similarly discussed in Chapter 11 (Reduction– hydrogenation). Chapter 12 deals with metathesis; Chapter 13, with oligomerization and polymerization of hydrocarbons. Each of these fields is of substantial practical signifi- cance and treated emphasizing basic chemistry and significant practical applications. Challenges in the new century and possible solutions relevant to hydrocarbon chemistry are discussed in Chapter 14 (Emerging areas and trends).
Hydrocarbon Chemistry addresses a wide range of readers. We hope that research and industrial chemists, college and university teachers, and advanced undergraduate and graduate students alike will find it useful. Since it gives a general overview of the field, it should also be useful for chemical engineers and in the chemical and petrochemical industry in general. Finally, we believe that it may serve well as supplementary textbook in courses dealing with aspects of the diverse and significant field.
