Organic Chemistry Volume 1This two-volume set is designed for courses focused on the fundamentals of organic chemistry for premeds and chemistry or bioscience students. The first volume covers essential aspects of molecular structure, introduces the techniques of physical organic chemistry and surveys the broad classes of reactions. The second volume describes the chemical properties and reactions of the common classes of organic compounds and shows how these reactions can be assembled into multi-step syntheses of complex molecules. |
