This is an introductory text designed to acquaint undergraduate students with the basic theory and interpretative techniques of infrared spectroscopy. The author also believes that this material would be appropriate as an introductory text at the graduate level for those students lacking a background in the subject. Much of the material in this text has [...]
The two-part, fifth edition of Advanced Organic Chemistry has been substantially revised and reorganized for greater clarity. The material has been updated to reflect advances in the field since the previous edition, especially in computational chemistry. Part B describes the most general and useful synthetic reactions, organized on the basis of reaction type. It can [...]
The two-part, fifth edition of Advanced Organic Chemistry has been substantially revised and reorganized for greater clarity. The material has been updated to reflect advances in the field since the previous edition, especially in computational chemistry. Part A covers fundamental structural topics and basic mechanistic types. It can stand-alone; together, with Part B: Reaction and [...]

Food, like all matter, is governed by the rules of chemistry. Food chemistry is a branch of science that studies the substances that make up food, the chemical processes that food undergoes, and how different foods can be combined or changed to make new foods. Chemistry is in action when you simmer, boil, bake, freeze, [...]
This text provides an introduction to physical chemistry, covering the fundamentals of thermodynamics, kinetics and quantum chemistry. The selection of contents was guided by the concept of a two-semester course delivering thermodynamics and kinetics (Chaps. 1–8) and quantum chemistry (Chaps. 8–13) throughout the second year of undergraduate studies in the disciplines of chemistry, biochemistry, engineering [...]
This book will help you understand all basic organic reaction mechanisms through a series of practices with commented solutions. With this book, you are going to learn about how different functional groups react with different reagents, and how to identify the predominant reaction among SN1, SN2, E1, and E2. Topics included:-Reactions of alkenes.-Reactions of alkynes.-Reactions [...]
The seventh edition of Introductory Chemistry: An Active Learning Approach is written for a college-level introductory or preparatory chemistry course for students who next will take a college general chemistry course. It is also appropriate for the first-term general portion of a two-term general, organic, and biological chemistry (GOB) course. The textbook is written with [...]
The first edition of this book was conceived over 30 years ago. Since that time there have been eight editions, and over 1 million students worldwide have used the book to begin their study of chemistry. Over the years, and the many editions, our goals have remained the same: to provide a broad overview of [...]
