How to Use the Book to Locate Examples of the Preparation of Protection of Monofunctional Compounds. Examples of the preparation of one functional group from another are found in the monofunctional index on p. x, which lists the corresponding section and page. Sections that contain examples of the reactions of a functional group are found in the horizontal rows of this index. Section 1 gives examples of the reactions of alkynes that form new alkynes Section 16 gives reactions of alkynes that form carboxylic acids and Section 31 gives reactions of alkynes that form alcohols. 

Examples of the protection of alkynes, carboxylic acids, alcohols, phenols, aldehydes, amides, amines, esters, ketones, and alkenes are also indexed on p. xvii. Section (designated with an A 15A, 30A, etc.) with protecting group reactions are located at the end of pertinent chapters.
