Von der hinteren Coverseite

Written by one of the world?s leading researchers and teachers in organic chemistry, this book focuses on the living core of chemistry, organic synthesis. A rational treatment allows an economical presentation of both the theory and the actual procedures for synthetic pathways. Organic Reactions: Simplicity and Logic ? the student?s and lecturer?s ideal companion, provides:

• a superb overview of organic reactions
• a rigorous introduction to the underlying theoretical concepts
• insight into the logic and simplicity underpinning organic synthesis
• biographies of, and mini-essays devoted to, great scientists who have shaped chemistry and biochemistry
• examples of industrial organic chemistry
• an easy-to-read, well-written, highly illustrated text
• an essential learning tool for chemistry, biochemistry and polymer science courses
