Innumerable derivatives have been prepared by the standard techniques of organic chemistry. The organosilanes tend to be much more reactive than their carbon analogues, particularly towards hydrolysis, ammonoly-sis. and alcoholysis. Further condensation to cyclic oligomers or linear polymers generally ensues, e.g. ...

A major treatise devoted to experimental methods of chemistry is Techniques of Chemistry , edited first by Weissberger, and then by Saunders, Wiley, New York. This publication, which began in 1970, so far consists of 21 volumes, most of them in several parts, covering such topics as electrochemical and spectral methods, kinetic methods, photochronusm, and organic solvents. Techniques of Chemistry is a successor to an earlier series, called Techniques of Organic Chemistry , which appeared in 14 volumes, some of them in more than one edition, from 1945 to 1969. 

Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) (I), an occasional contaminant in 2,4,5-T and other trichlorophenol derivatives, is the most toxic of the commonly-encountered dioxins (8) and it received most of our attention. Its low solubility in common solvents and water (ca. 2 ppb) limited our experiments since the products were difficult to identify by the conventional techniques of organic chemistry. However, TCDD has an absorption maximum at 307 nm in methanol—well within the solar spectrum observed at the earth s surface and near the region of maximum intensity (310-330 nm) of the UV lamps used in previous experiments (H 29).

Equally precise and meticulous as an experimentalist, he devoted time during his days at Pittsburgh to write comprehensive articles on such practical techniques as crystallization, vacuum distillation, and sublimation, which were published in the Weissberger Techniques of Organic Chemistry series. His preoccupation with careful experimental techniques and then-accurate recording in the literature remained with him always. He abhorred vague descriptions of procedures, speculative interpretations not based on...
