Helps to develop new perspectives and a deeper understanding of
organic chemistry
Instructors and students alike have praised Perspectives on
Structure and Mechanism in Organic Chemistry because it
motivates readers to think about organic chemistry in new and
exciting ways. Based on the author's first hand classroom
experience, the text uses complementary conceptual models to give
new perspectives on the structures and reactions of organic
compounds.
The first five chapters of the text discuss the structure and
bonding of stable molecules and reactive intermediates. These are
followed by a chapter exploring the methods that organic chemists
use to study reaction mechanisms. The remaining chapters examine
different types of acid-base, substitution, addition, elimination,
pericyclic, and photochemical reactions.
This Second Edition has been thoroughly updated and
revised to reflect the latest findings in physical organic
chemistry. Moreover, this edition features:
* New references to the latest primary and review literature
* More study questions to help readers better understand and
apply new concepts in organic chemistry
* Coverage of new topics, including density functional theory,
quantum theory of atoms in molecules, Marcus theory, molecular
simulations, effect of solvent on organic reactions, asymmetric
induction in nucleophilic additions to carbonyl compounds, and
dynamic effects on reaction pathways
The nearly 400 problems in the text do more than allow students
to test their understanding of the concepts presented in each
chapter. They also encourage readers to actively review and
evaluate the chemical literature and to develop and defend their
own ideas.
With its emphasis on complementary models and independent
problem-solving, this text is ideal for upper-level undergraduate
and graduate courses in organic chemistry.
