This South Asian Edition is built on three principles: Suitable for: Undergraduate students following any chemistry or chemistry-related degree programme. Description Inspiring and motivating students from the moment it published, Organic Chemistry has established itself in just one edition as the students' choice of organic chemistry text. This South Asian Edition is built on three principles: An explanatory approach, through which the reader is motivated to understand the subject and not just learn the facts; A mechanistic approach, giving the reader the power to understand compounds and reactions never previously encountered; An evidence-based approach, setting out clearly how and why reactions happen as they do, giving extra depth to the reader's understanding. Features All chapters have been reviewed and refined to provide a more student-friendly, more logical and more coherent presentation of the subject as a whole. Chapters are extensively cross-linked to a bank of over 500 interactive online resources, which help readers to visualise molecular structure and gain a deeper and richer understanding of reaction mechanisms. Early chapters have been recast to give a more carefully-graded learning curve, to avoid the student being confronted by too much, too soon. Coverage of topics with particular practical relevance that have developed in the last ten years has been enhanced, including the presentation of metathesis, modern methods of asymmetric synthesis (including organic catalysis), 'click chemistry' and palladium-catalysed couplings. A re-ordering of topics has brought new coherence to the coverage of subjects such as conjugate addition, which had previously been dispersed through the book and has brought certain key topics, such as heterocyclic chemistry, earlier. A new chapter on regioselectivity has been introduced. Coverage of certain topics, including enolate chemistry, has been refined to give more focus to the book as a whole and tailor it more closely to the needs of undergraduates. Suggestions for further reading have been added to most chapters to help students take the next step in their learning.
