Study Guide and Solutions Manual: For Organic Chemistry, Fifth Edition - Softcover

This guide provides students with fully worked solutions to all unworked problems that appear in the text. In addition to the solutions presented for each specific problem, the authors present problem-solving strategies for solving organic chemistry problems in general.

Maitland Jones, Jr., is Professor of Chemistry at New York University. His undergraduate and graduate degrees are from Yale University. A long-time teacher of the organic chemistry course at Princeton, he is also an internationally recognized research scientist. His field of expertise is reactive intermediates, extremely short-lived molecules that exist only momentarily in the course of a chemical reaction. Within that subfield, Professor Jones is particularly interested in carbenes, carbon atoms with only two of their bond-forming electrons linked to other atoms, instead of the usual four. He is considered one of the world's leading authorities on this subject and travels widely, lecturing on his research.
