Description
Authorhouse Succeeding in Organic Chemistry A Systematic Problem-Solving Approach to Mastering Structure Function and Mechanism 2010 Edition by Joseph C. Sloop
This text is specifically designed to help introductory Organic Chemistry students understand the fundamental concepts covered in undergraduate organic chemistry. The purpose of this book is three-fold: to explode the misconceptions and misgivings that are prevalent regarding this vast subject, provide additional insight for students on a number of concepts essential to mastery of organic chemistry, and explore alternative learning strategies to assist the beginning organic chemistry student in applying a specialized problem solving technique which centers on structure, function and a mechanistic approach. Examples of key chemical transformations are dissected and analyzed to assist students in improving their problem-solving skills. Each chapter contains a number of additional problems and the solutions to those problems are provided at the end of each chapter.
