Opis

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