Informationen zum Autor FELIX A. CARROLL, PhD, is the Joseph R. Morton Professor of Chemistry at Davidson College. His research focuses on organic photochemistry and photophysics, kinetics, the synthesis and characterization of insect pheromone analogues, the correlation of molecular structure with physical properties, and the combustion characteristics of organic compounds. Dr. Carroll has published extensively in the peer-reviewed literature and was awarded a patent in the field of insect pheromones. Klappentext Understanding organic structures and mechanisms form the basis of physical organic chemistry, and are necessary to grasping organic chemical reactions. A must-have resource for comprehending organic chemistry basics, Perspectives on Structure and Mechanism in Organic Chemistry clearly explains the basic physical organic chemistry necessary to understand the synthetic applications. This second edition is updated throughout with modern concepts, revised references, and additional study questions to improve and guide student understanding. This second edition remains a definitive and easy to understand text for students and professionals in organic chemistry. Zusammenfassung 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.
