Chemiluminescence in Organic Chemistry

The appearance of the first review in 1965 [1] and the first monograph in 1968 [2] on chemiluminescence demonstrated the extent of the phenomenon of light emission from the reaction of organic compounds in solution. Since then the num­ ber of chemiluminescent compounds has greatly increased, althoug...
