Thisthesis gives a thorough account of the development of iron-catalysedhydrosilylation, hydroboration and hydromagnesiation reactions. Withextraordinary referencing and scientific argument, Mark Greenhalgh describesthe development of methodologies which require only commercially availablematerials and non-specialised techniques. The intention of this approach is toensure the science can be adopte...
