Description

With authors who are both accomplished researchers and educators, Vollhardt and Schore's "Organic Chemistry" is proven effective for making contemporary organic chemistry accessible; introducing cutting-edge research in a fresh, student-friendly way. This new edition incorporates the most current chemical research, and new synthesis and green chemistry applications. The expanded media package features new and enhanced animations and video lectures. The supplements are: "Test Bank" CD-ROM (0-7167-613-9); "Enhanced Instructor's Resource" CD (0-7167-6171-8); "Overhead transparencies" (0-7167-6195-5); and a "Study Guide" (0-7167-6172-6).
