17.2 Where do I find laboratory-scale procedures for inorganics? (Chemistry)

Most synthetic chemistry of inorganics appears to be devoted more to complex
organometallics, superacids and superconductors than common inorganics, but
it is worth considering that, of the top fifteen industrial chemicals
produced, the only organic compounds are ethylene, propylene, ethylene
dichloride and urea. There are specialist texts available that describe how
to purify inorganic laboratory reagents, eg [1]. I expect some inorganic
chemists to berate me for not knowing the standard inorganic synthesis
textbooks. ;-)
