<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published as: Reaction mechanisms at a glance (Malden, Mass.: Blackwell Science, 2000).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>How To Solve Organic Reaction Mechanisms: A Stepwise Approach</i> is an upgraded and much-expanded sequel to the bestselling text Reaction Mechanisms at a Glance. This book takes a unique approach to show that a general problem-solving strategy is applicable to many of the common reactions of organic chemistry, demonstrating that logical and stepwise reasoning, in combination with a good understanding of the fundamentals, is a powerful tool to apply to the solution of problems.<br /><br />Sub-divided by functional group, the book uses a check-list approach to problem-solving using mechanistic organic chemistry as its basis. Each mechanistic problem is presented as a two-page spread; the left-hand page introduces the problem and provides a stepwise procedure for working through the reaction mechanisms, with helpful hints about the underlying chemistry. The right-hand page contains the full worked solution and summary.</p> <p>This revised edition includes the following updates: </p> <ul> <li>A new chapter which applies the problem solving strategy to ligand coupling reactions using transition metals</li> <li>Much-expanded set of fully worked problems</li> <li>Over 40 further problems (with answers for tutors) for use in tutorials</li> </ul> <p><i>How To Solve Organic Reaction Mechanisms: A Stepwise Approach</i> is an essential workbook for all students studying organic chemistry, and a useful aide for teachers of undergraduate organic chemistry to use in their tutorials.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><i>How to Solve Organic Reaction Mechanisms: A Stepwise Approach</i> is an upgraded and much-expanded sequel to the bestselling Reaction Mechanisms at a Glance.
