Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organic compounds are ubiquitous in nature. They are present in food, commercial products, domestic materials, and all the cells of the human body. The realization that the chemistry of organic compounds permeates all life forms, often stimulates the desire of many students to pursue studies in medical- and natural-chemistry-related fields. In my own case, although I had always been fascinated by chemistry in general, I only opted to study it at a higher level by default. This is beacuse prior to my university education, I barely understood its various concepts. But this changed dramatically when at university, I was lucky enough to be taught by some very inspirational, experienced and internationally-acclaimed chemistry teachers, who actually lived the subject. Interestingly, even then, there were only a few relevant, user-friendly textbooks on the subject. As I have discovered over the years, organic chemistry is so broad and covers so much that for effective delivery, not only must those who teach the subject constantly adopt innovative methods of teaching, there must also be readily-available and easy-to-read textbooks. Because of the apparent complexity of the subject, organic chemistry teachers must always aim to instill a love of learning for it, by imparting knowledge in ways that can be motivating and exciting. When students have access to relevant, user-friendly textbooks and lessons are made interactive, simple, clear and exciting, rather than dominated by learning by rote, organic chemistry can be both interesting and easy-to-understand. This book is an attempt to contribute to the growing body of knowledge that aims to stimulate students’ interest, and love for the wonderful world of organic chemistry. The intention is to equip students with the basic concepts, so they can refrain from simply memorizing, but rather seek to understand and not be intimidated by it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides an in-depth study of organic compounds that bridges the gap between general and organic chemistry Organic Chemistry: Concepts and Applications presents a comprehensive review of organic compounds that is appropriate for a two-semester sophomore organic chemistry course. The text covers the fundamental concepts needed to understand organic chemistry and clearly shows how to apply the concepts of organic chemistry to problem-solving. In addition, the book highlights the relevance of organic chemistry to the environment, industry, and biological and medical sciences. The author includes multiple-choice questions similar to aptitude exams for professional schools, including the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) and Dental Aptitude Test (DAT) to help in the preparation for these important exams. Rather than categorize content information by functional groups, which often stresses memorization, this textbook instead divides the information into reaction types. This approach bridges the gap between general and organic chemistry and helps students develop a better understanding of the material. A manual of possible solutions for chapter problems for instructors and students is available in the supplementary websites. This important book: • Provides an in-depth study of organic compounds with division by reaction types that bridges the gap between general and organic chemistry • Covers the concepts needed to understand organic chemistry and teaches how to apply them for problem-solving • Puts a focus on the relevance of organic chemistry to the environment, industry, and biological and medical sciences • Includes multiple choice questions similar to aptitude exams for professional schools Written for students of organic chemistry, Organic Chemistry: Concepts and Applications is the comprehensive text that presents the material in clear terms and shows how to apply the concepts to problem solving.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organic Chemistry: A Two-Semester Course of Essential Organic Chemistry is a concise and accessible textbook that covers the critical information a student will learn during a two-semester organic chemistry course. The book lays out the essential concepts of organic chemistry according to the requirements outlined by the American Chemical Society. The book begins with a chapter dedicated to covalent bonding and the structure of molecules. In later chapters, students study proton transfer reactions and stereochemistry. They explore nucleophilic substitution, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, spectroscopy of organic compounds, and more. The final chapters are devoted to amines, benzene and aromatic compounds, and an introduction to bio-molecules. Organic Chemistry provides students with a brief yet thorough exploration of organic chemistry basics. The book is an excellent resource for organic chemistry courses, particularly those at the undergraduate level, and can also be used by students as they prepare for standardized ACS, MCAT, PCAT, and Chemistry GRE exams, as well as other professional assessments.
Download or read book Practical Organic Chemistry written by J.T. Sharp and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the very best things about organic chemistry is actually doing experimental work at the beneh. This applies not only at the profes sionallevel but also from the earliest stages of apprenticeship to the craft as a student. The fascination sterns from the nature of the sub ject itself, with its vast array of different types of reaction and its al most infinite variety of different chemical compounds. Each reaction and each new compound pose their own particular problems to chal lenge the skill and ingenuity of the chemist, whether working in a first-year teaching la bora tory or at the frontiers of research. This book is intended to provide basic guidance in the essential experimental techniques used in a typical undergraduate course. It gives concise coverage of the range of practical skills required, from first-year level when students may have no previous experience, up to final-year level when students are usually involved in more complex and dem an ding experimental work in supervised research projects. Our objective was to produce a handbook of techniques that could be used with a variety of practical courses throughout a student's whole period of study. Those who run practical courses generally have strong feelings about what particular experiments or exercises are appropriate for their own students, and it is rare that a book of experiments suitable for one department is acceptable to another.

Download or read book Organic Chemistry written by Robert Engel and published by Cognella Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organic Chemistry begins by addressing an issue of fundamental importance - the structure of organic molecules. With this as a foundation the book then uses interactive review of materials, in conjunction with very structured guidance, to help students progress through increasingly challenging topics within the discipline. Over the course of thirty one chapters students learn about organic compounds, the structure and reactions of carbon-carbon doubly bonded systems, and the polarity of carbon-halogen and carbon-metal bonds. They study alkanes and cycloalkanes, physical methods of structural elucidation, nuclear magnetic resonance, and infrared spectrometry. They become familiar with carboxylic acids and their compounds, heterocyclic compounds, synthetic polymers, and more. The material supports students in mastering the content by providing clear explanations and real problems that require thinking beyond memorization. Written for courses in chemistry and organic chemistry, Organic Chemistry is well-suited to a two-semester program for majors, as well as students in a pre-health professions track. It is an excellent companion text for classes that include a laboratory component and manual.
