Organic Chemistry With a Biological Emphasis

Organic Chemistry With a Biological Emphasis

This textbook is designed for students in biology, biochemistry, or the health sciences and is meant to bridge the gap between organic chemistry on one side and biological systems on the other. It rapidly covers foundational topics like organic structure, bonding, and stereochemistry but emphasizes the biological relevance of organic reactions. This text includes determining structures, organic reactivity, and important reaction types- nucleophilic substitutions and acid-base equilibria-in biological contexts. It goes into detail to show examples about how the principles of organic chemistry apply in the study of biochemical processes, making it a very useful resource for the student in life sciences who needs a practical understanding of organic chemistry in biological systems.
