Phosgene is widely used in organic chemistry as a building block providing the C = O such as in carbamates, carbonates, isocyanates, ureas, heterocycles etc., or as a reagent for chlorination, dehydration, alkylation, de-alkylation, protection and activation etc.
Consequently, I have chosen to divide this book in two volumes:
Volume 1 includes introduction, some considerations on physical properties and chemical reactivity, and four chapters devoted to phosgene and derivatives as building blocks.
Volume 2 presents applications of phosgene and derivatives as reagents and the general conclusion.
In Vol. 1:
Characteristics of phosgene
Phosgene and derivatives as building blocks
In Vol. 2:
Phosgene and derivatives as reagents
