Stereoelectronic effects control the way molecules are put together an d account for the "rules of engagement" which operate when molecules m eet and react. Understanding these effects is the key to understanding molecular behavior, since the same basic three-dimensional interactio ns are responsible for both structure and reactivity. This concise and very accessible volume provides a comprehensive, intentionally non-ma thematical coverage of stereochemistry, along with an in-depth discuss ion of the main classes of organic reactions, promoting a logical and simple way of thinking about...
