This broad spectrum of organic compounds in the textbook encompasses
derivatives of hydrocarbons, alcohols, phenols, ethers, epoxides, aldehydes,
ketones, and carboxylic acids. The text encompasses functional derivatives of
monocarboxylic acids, nitriles, and organosulfur and organophosphorus compounds,
based on their chemical behavior and reactivity. It provides comprehensive
insights into amino compounds and the various organic reactions occurring within
these functional groups. This is the main textbook for students who wish to have
mastery over organic chemistry concepts before advanced study or research in
it.
This is an all-inclusive
resource that explores organic chemistry, right from basic concepts such as
structure and bonding to comprehensive organic reactions and spectroscopy
techniques. The topics include polar covalent bonds, acids and bases, detailed
studies of organic compounds which include alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and
organohalides. Stereochemistry is discussed in the book, which incorporates
aspects surrounding tetrahedral centers and cycloalkanes, along with detailed
mechanisms of nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions. It also
introduces spectroscopy methods like mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy
for structure determination, affording students ample theoretical knowledge
along with practical skills in organic synthesis and analysis.
It is
an advanced-level book that is focused on synthesis: particularly on strategies
for stereoselective synthesis. Methods for the stereocontrolled synthesis of
acyclic compounds that are essential to be built with specific three-dimensional
configurations are included. The book focuses a lot on the latest techniques and
strategies in building complex organic structures, discussing much about
reaction mechanisms and problems with stereoselectivity in synthetic pathways.
This is the definitive resource for graduate students and researchers in organic
synthesis and for those who want to be better equipped with a deeper
understanding of synthetic methodologies.
