The highly successful Fieser & Fieser series has provided several generations of professional chemists and students with an up-to-date survey of the reagent literature. Reagents are listed in alphabetical order by common name, and the brief entry tells how to make it or buy it, what it is good for, and where to find complete details. Volume 26 covers chemical literature from the middle of 2008 to the end of 2009.

Other volumes in the series Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volume 1 "...well on the way to becoming the reference of choice for everyone concerned with techniques of synthesis in organic chemistry." —Science "Due to the book’s unprecedented coverage of reagents and their uses, the suppliers section, the well-organized indexes, and the ease of locating information either in the reagents section or in one of the indexes, I would consider this book a valuable addition to the library of every college of pharmacy. I would also recommend that graduate students acquire this valuable reference book for their own personal library." —Richard H. Hammer, University of Florida 1967 1,457 pp. Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volume 2 "The Fiesers' second volume updates, revises, and adds immensely to the content and worth of their first compilation of organic reagents. The need for a sequence of handbooks such as the Fiesers have provided has long been recognized, and the authors' almost traditional association with, keen awareness of, and interest in the special techniques of organic chemistry make the reading and study of these works especially worthwhile." —Journal of the American Chemical Society, 1969 538 pp. Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volume 3 "This volume, as well as the previous ones, is extremely valuable to a synthetic organic chemist. All three volumes should be in his library." —American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education, 1972 401 pp. Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volume 4 "Synthetic chemists have found the first three volumes of the Fiesers' Reagents for Organic Synthesis very useful and will welcome the new fourth volume of this series.... As before, the authors have carefully culled the recent (1970–1972) literature for applications of organic, inorganic, and organometallic reagents, old and new, and present them alphabetically according to reagent.... Not only are their applications in synthesis discussed, but useful hints, with references, concerning their preparation or commercial suppliers are given. The synthetic chemist will find this volume a veritable gold mine of useful information." —Journal of Organometallic Chemistry, 1974 660 pp. Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volume 5 "New reagents for organic synthesis play an extremely important role in the armentarium of the practical organic chemist. It is, therefore, not surprising that this excellent series by Mary and Louis Fieser is a bestseller and a "must" for the home library.... The Fiesers have done it again. An excellent volume that can be heartily recommended." —Pharmaceutical Journal, 1975 864 pp. Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volume 6 1977 765 pp.

From reviews of previous volumes: "Essential for chemistry collections at the university and research levels." --New York Public Library "Highly recommended...lots of succinct, practical information on recent developments...in a format that is easy to use. The reagents are taken up in alphabetical order (common usage names, not CAS indexing code names), sometimes several to a page, sometimes several pages to a reagent. One can expect to find how to make the reagent (in loose terms), or where it can be bought, what it is good for, and where to seek complete details. As with previous volumes, one can profit from just browsing, even if one does not feel a need to look up any particular subject. It is thus a secondary function of the book to help one keep abreast of the field, and it would be a rare chemist who would not learn something new and useful from a casual perusal of the pages." --Journal of the American Chemical Society REAGENTS FOR ORGANIC SYNTHESIS Volume 1 1967 (0-471-25875-X) 1,475 pp. Volume 2 1969 (0-471-25876-8) 538 pp. Volume 3 1972 (0-471-25879-2) 401 pp. Volume 4 1974 (0-471-25881-4) 660 pp. Volume 5 1975 (0-471-25882-2) 864 pp. Volume 6 1977 (0-471-25873-3) 765 pp. Volume 7 1979 (0-471-02918-1) 487 pp. Volume 8 1980 (0-471-04834-8) 602 pp. Volume 9 1981 (0-471-05631-6) 596 pp. Volume 10 1982 (0-471-86636-9) 528 pp. Volume 11 1984 (0-471-88628-9) 669 pp. Volume 12 1986 (0-471-83469-6) 643 pp. Volume 13 1988 (0-471-63007-1) 472 pp. Volume 14 1989 (0-471-50400-9) 386 pp. Volume 15 1990 (0-471-52113-2) 432 pp. Volume 16 1992 (0-471-52721-1) 435 pp. Volume 17 1994 (0-471-00074-4) 464 pp. Volume 18 1999 (0-471-24477-5) 518 pp. Volume 19 1999 (0-471-32709-3) 504 pp. Volume 20 2000 (0-471-36999-3) 552 pp. Volume 21 2002 (0-471-21393-4) 608 pp. Volume 22 2006 (0-471-68243-8) 504 pp.
