Description

This book aims to provide a succinct yet rigorous presentation of organic chemistry for readers with a some background in the subject. The first five chapters review the basic principles of organic reactions and reactivity, such as structure and bonding, oxidation level, acidity and basicity, curved arrow notation, stereochemistry, and conformation. Functional group manipulation is covered in the next chapter, while chapters 7 and 8 concentrate on the methods employed in the production of new carbon-carbon bonds. Practical concerns-the planning of organic syntheses, the factors influencing organic reactions and their determination, and an overview of the ways to determine the structure of organic compounds-are covered in the final three chapters.
