Designed to supplement standard organic chemistry textbooks used in two-semester courses, Problems Book for Organic Chemistry is a practical and highly applicable study aid that increases students’ problem-solving abilities and effectively prepares them for exams. The book challenges students to participate in a series of timed examinations, replicating the real conditions under which exams are generally given to effectively prepare students to problem-solve under pressure. After completing each exam, students are provided with detailed answers and encouraged to self-grade their work to better understand their individual mastery of the material. The concepts in each exam, as well as their order, mirror the progression of a standard two-semester organic chemistry course. Innovative in approach, Problems Book for Organic Chemistry is an ideal resource for students enrolled in organic chemistry courses.

Organic Chemistry, Vol II

Organic Chemistry Vol II introduces students to the main aspects of modern organic chemistry in a clear and thorough fashion. The text employs a student-oriented functional group approach to help students build and broaden their foundational knowledge within the discipline. The second edition of Organic Chemistry has been divided into two volumes. The second volume builds upon information presented in the first volume. Opening chapters cover alkadienes and alkynes, molecular orbital concepts, nuclear magnetic resonance, and infrared spectrometry. Students learn about the reactions of benzene and its derivatives, aldehydes and ketones, amines and related compounds, and carboxylic acids. Additional chapters examine enamines, enolates, and carbohydrates. The content supports mastery by providing clear explanations and problems that emphasize application and practice. Organic Chemistry Vol II is an ideal resource for semester-long courses in chemistry and organic chemistry. The text can be paired with Organic Chemistry Vol I to support a two-semester course.

Organic Chemistry Vol I introduces students to the main aspects of modern organic chemistry in a clear and thorough fashion. The text employs a student-oriented functional group approach to help students build and broaden their foundational knowledge within the discipline. The second edition of Organic Chemistry has been divided into two volumes. The first volume opens with chapters that cover bonding in organic compounds and an introduction to organic compounds, including functional groups, nomenclature, and representations of structure. Additional chapters address intermolecular and acid-base interaction, alkanes and cycloalkanes, methanol and ethanol, and alcohols. Students learn about types of bond cleavage, stereochemical principles, and carbon-carbon doubly bonded systems. Closing chapters are dedicated to the substitution and elimination reactions of haloalkanes, ethers and epoxides, and alkadienes and alkynes. The content supports mastery by providing clear explanations and problems that emphasize application and practice. Organic Chemistry Vol I is an ideal resource for semester-long courses in chemistry and organic chemistry.
