Conformation of acyl groups

A group of Italian workers from Modena, led by Professor Taddei, has reviewed published work on the conformations of acyl groups in heterocyclic compounds, including both C-acyl and N-acyl derivatives. The first recent review of the basicity and acidity of azoles, covering both gas-phase and solution measurements, is presented by a group of Spanish workers (Catalan et al.). H. Weber has summarized the considerable recent progress in oxidative transformations of heteroaromatic iminium salts.
