Download or read book The Essential Logic of Organic Chemistry Aka How to Cure the Benzene Blues written by Phil Beauchamp and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-11 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamental logic arguments of organic chemistry are emphasized in this book. Resonance effects, inductive effects and steric effects are used to explain most of the common types of organic reactions. Arrow pushing and mechanism are presented with each type of reaction, most of which utilize nucleophile and electrophile chemistry. Only two free radical reactions are presented (sp3 C-H substitution and HBr addition to alkenes). Limited examples are chosen for each 'typical' type of reaction covered in the year-long course, rather than comprehensive coverage, that often overwhelms beginning students. The book is only about a third the size of most current organic textbooks. It is also "self published" in order to keep the cost to a minimum. That means I am not only the author, I am also the editor. If you decide to use this book, you immediately become my co-editor. Let me know when you find any inevitable errors (thanks!). This book represents my 40 years of teaching organic chemistry and my hope that it makes organic chemistry 'understandable'. Enjoy the journey.

Download or read book The Art of Writing Reasonable Organic Reaction Mechanisms written by Robert B. Grossman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-07-31 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for students of intermediate organic chemistry, this text shows how to write a reasonable mechanism for an organic chemical transformation. The discussion is organized by types of mechanisms and the conditions under which the reaction is executed, rather than by the overall reaction as is the case in most textbooks. Each chapter discusses common mechanistic pathways and suggests practical tips for drawing them. Worked problems are included in the discussion of each mechanism, and "common error alerts" are scattered throughout the text to warn readers about pitfalls and misconceptions that bedevil students. Each chapter is capped by a large problem set.

Download or read book Clay Polymer Nanocomposites written by Khouloud Jlassi and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clay–Polymer Nanocomposites is a complete summary of the existing knowledge on this topic, from the basic concepts of synthesis and design to their applications in timely topics such as high-performance composites, environment, and energy issues. This book covers many aspects of synthesis such as in- situ polymerization within the interlamellar spacing of the clays or by reaction of pristine or pre-modified clays with reactive polymers and prepolymers. Indeed, nanocomposites can be prepared at industrial scale by melt mixing. Regardless the synthesis method, much is said in this book about the importance of theclay pre-modification step, which is demonstrated to be effective, on many occasions, in obtaining exfoliated nanocomposites. Clay–Polymer Nanocomposites reports the background to numerous characterization methods including solid state NMR, neutron scattering, diffraction and vibrational techniques as well as surface analytical methods, namely XPS, inverse gas chromatography and nitrogen adsorption to probe surface composition, wetting and textural/structural properties. Although not described in dedicated chapters, numerous X-ray diffraction patterns of clay–polymer nanocomposites and reference materials are displayed to account for the effects of intercalation and exfoliations of layered aluminosilicates. Finally, multiscale molecular simulation protocols are presenting for predicting morphologies and properties of nanostructured polymer systems with industrial relevance. As far as applications are concerned, Clay–Polymer Nanocomposites examines structural composites such as clay–epoxy and clay–biopolymers, the use of clay–polymer nanocomposites as reactive nanocomposite fillers, catalytic clay-(conductive) polymers and similar nanocomposites for the uptake of hazardous compounds or for controlled drug release, antibacterial applications, energy storage, and more. - The most comprehensive coverage of the state of the art in clay–polymer nanocomposites, from synthesis and design to opportunities and applications - Covers the various methods of characterization of clay–polymer nanocomposites - including spectroscopy, thermal analyses, and X-ray diffraction - Includes a discussion of a range of application areas, including biomedicine, energy storage, biofouling resistance, and more
