0.0

Organic Chemistry is a well-established two-volume textbook for students studying chemistry at degree level. Volume 2 carries the material of Volume 1: Fundamental Principles to a more advanced level. The author provides a comprehensive introduction to the relationship between physical properties and chemical structures, and then proceeds to a detailed account of stereochemistry. The later chapters are devoted to the most typical compounds of natural products and the problems involved. A selected number of reading references are given at the end of each chapter.Table Of ContentsPhysical properties and chemical constitution Optical isomerism Nucleophilic substitution at a saturated carbon atom, asymmetric synthesis Geometrical isomerism, stereochemistry of alicyclic compounds Stereochemistry of biphenyl compounds Stereochemistry of some elements other than carbon Carbohydrates Terpenoids Carotenoids Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons Steroids Heterocyclic compounds containing two or more hetero-atoms Amino-acids and proteins Alkaloids Anthocyanins Purines and nucleic acids Vitamins Chemotherapy Haemoglobin, chlorophyll and phthalocyanines
