Fluorinated compounds are present in many everyday items, for example as non-stick coatings on kitchen utensils. In addition, the element fluorine plays an important role both in pharmaceutical ingredients and in medical diagnostics. In a textbook which has been published recently, Axel Haupt, postdoctoral fellow at Jacobs University Bremen, provides a comprehensive overview of synthesis protocols for organic and inorganic fluorinated compounds.
"It is the book’s aim to teach the essential fundamentals of both inorganic and organic fluorine chemistry. Despite the greatly increased importance of fluorinated compounds in recent decades, there has been no textbook to date that covers both areas equally," said Haupt. The English-language, 626-page textbook is aimed primarily at chemistry students, but also at researchers at universities and in the industry. Exercise questions are included in each chapter to reinforce key aspects.
Axel Haupt has been conducting research at Jacobs University in the chemistry work group of Professor Gerd-Volker Röschenthaler since 2018. Previously, he received his PhD summa cum laude from Freie Universität Berlin under Professor Dieter Lentz.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
