Organic Chemistry | Ninth Edition | By Pearson (Paperback)  | Released: 01-Oct-19

Organic Chemistry, Ninth Edition gives students a contemporary overview of organic principles and the tools for organizing and understanding reaction mechanisms and synthetic organic chemistry with unparalleled and highly refined pedagogy. This text presents key principles of organic chemistry in the context of fundamental reasoning and problem solving. Authored to complement how students use a textbook today, new Problem-Solving Strategies, Partially Solved Problems, Visual Reaction Guides and Reaction Starbursts encourage students to use the text before class as a primary introduction to organic chemistry as well as a comprehensive study tool for working problems and/or preparing for exams. Features: - New chapters on Phenols and Quinones and Asymmetric Synthesis. - Green Chemistry is emphasized with presentation of less-toxic, and environmentally friendly reagents. - Enriched and updated treatment of Acid/Base Chemistry, Study of Chemical Reactions, Stereochemistry, Alkyl Halides, Alkenes, Dienes, Alkynes, Thiols, Aromatic Compounds, Amines, and Polymers. - Over 100 new problems include more synthesis problems and problems based on recent literature. - Over 80 Mechanism boxes help students understand how specific reactions occur by zooming in on each individual step in detail. - Updated art throughout to provide consistency and clarity in the text, giving detailed representations of molecular and orbital art. - Excellent Pedagogy: 1. Chapter Openers. 2. Key Mechanism boxes. 3. Reaction Starbursts. 4.Problem Solving Strategies. 5. Visual Guides to Organic Reactions. 6. Essential Problem-Solving Skills.
