CRC Press Superoxide Ion: Volume II - Chemistry and Biology

Expand your scientific knowledge with Superoxide Ion: Volume II (1991): Chemistry and Biological Implications. Published by CRC Press Revivals, this text provides a deep look into the chemical properties of the superoxide ion and its significant biological roles. This volume explores the transformations of superoxide and the resulting oxygen radicals. It builds upon the foundation of Volume I by detailing essential chemical processes. Readers will find detailed information on protonation reactions with proton donors, nucleophilic reactions involving esters and alkyl halides, and electron transfer reactions with metal complexes and quinones. Written by Igor B. Afanas'ev, D.Sc., a Professor and Chief of the Laboratory of Chemical Kinetics at the All-Union Vitamin Research Institute, this book serves as a technical resource for those studying biochemistry and chemical kinetics. It is an essential addition to any scientific library focused on oxygen radicals and biological chemistry.
