In the last quarter century there have been only two seminal contributions in the field of organic stereochemistry - both by Kurt Mislow and his coworkers - ones that have clarified the basic concepts of stereotopicity and chirotopicity. Not withstanding a few other sporadic contributions by others, to date there have been no systematic attempts to unify and develop the conceptual framework and terminology of organic stereochemistry. Existing terms are frequently misused or abused, needed terms - redundant, confusing or controversial - are invented randomly, and yet other needed terms have not seen the light of day. This three-part work presents the elements of a simple, uniform and comprehensive language of the stereochemical underpinnings of organic chemistry. It is essential reading for industrial chemists, graduate students, university professors and industrial researchers in the field of Organic Stereochemistry.* Presents the elements of a simple, uniform and comprehensive language of organic stereochemistry. * Unifies and develops a comprehensive language of organic stereochemistry* Presents concepts and classifications which are universal.

This book is a basic reference providing concise, accurate definitions of the key terms and concepts of organic chemistry. Not simply a listing of organic compounds, structures, and nomenclatures, the book is organized into topical chapters in which related terms and concepts appear in close proximity to one another, giving context to the information and helping to make fine distinctions more understandable. Areas covered include: bonding, symmetry, stereochemistry, types of organic compounds, reactions, mechansims, spectroscopy, and photochemistry.

Takes the reader step-by-step from the structures of simple molecules, such as methane, to the basic shapes of biologically important macromolecules, such as proteins and nucleic acids. Deals with the concept of chirality, which is often overlooked by many texts. Chirality is approached by firstly explaining the stereochemistry of compounds with one stereogenic centre, then dealing with compounds having two or more stereogenic centres before focusing on compounds possessing axes of chirality. The importance of stereochemistry in a wide variety of transformations (for example addition reactions, eliminations, and cycloadditions), is discussed. The final chapters describe the application of stereocontrol in asymmetric synthesis, indicating the use of chiral auxiliaries and chiral catalysts in modern chemistry.

This text deals with the new concepts and terminology that have been introduced into the treatment of organic stereochemistry over the last decade. Organic reaction mechanisms, as they relate to stereochemistry, are included, and the pericyclic reaction using the frontier molecular orbital approach is explained. The text does not assume a strong grounding in organic chemistry and will therefore be useful to a broader spectrum of students - both graduate and undergraduate. The volume features numerous illustrations and programmed problems.

Class-tested and thoughtfully designed for student engagement, Principles of Organic Chemistry provides the tools and foundations needed by students in a short course or one-semester class on the subject. This book does not dilute the material or rely on rote memorization. Rather, it focuses on the underlying principles in order to make accessible the science that underpins so much of our day-to-day lives, as well as present further study and practice in medical and scientific fields. This book provides context and structure for learning the fundamental principles of organic chemistry, enabling the reader to proceed from simple to complex examples in a systematic and logical way. Utilizing clear and consistently colored figures, Principles of Organic Chemistry begins by exploring the step-by-step processes (or mechanisms) by which reactions occur to create molecular structures. It then describes some of the many ways these reactions make new compounds, examined by functional groups and corresponding common reaction mechanisms. Throughout, this book includes biochemical and pharmaceutical examples with varying degrees of difficulty, with worked answers and without, as well as advanced topics in later chapters for optional coverage. Incorporates valuable and engaging applications of the content to biological and industrial uses Includes a wealth of useful figures and problems to support reader comprehension and study Provides a high quality chapter on stereochemistry as well as advanced topics such as synthetic polymers and spectroscopy for class customization

A Practical Introduction to Stereochemistry Stereoisomers are compounds with the same chemical formula and connectivity but with different arrangements of their atoms in 3-dimensional space. Stereochemistry encompasses the study of stereoisomers and their properties. Despite having an identical chemical formula, stereoisomers can have drastically different biological, medicinal, and chemical properties. Basic Organic Stereochemistry explains in clear, concise terms the concepts and properties of stereoisomers. Ideal both as a text for advanced undergraduate or graduate students and as a handy guide for researchers in industry, this superb text covers: * Polarimetry and optical rotation * Internal coordinates, configuration, and conformation * Nature of stereoisomers * Barriers between stereoisomers and residual stereoisomers * Symmetry operators and symmetry point groups * Properties of stereoisomers and stereoisomer discrimination * Separation of stereoisomers, resolution, and racemization Suitable for students in organic and biological chemistry, Basic Organic Stereochemistry is unparalleled as a convenient text.

This text for undergraduate students presents an introduction to stereochemistry--the study of the three-dimensional structure of molecules--with a focus on organic chemistry. In eight chapters, Morris (U. of Glasgow) discusses topics such as the hybridization, conformation, and configuration of simple molecules; chiral molecules; molecules with two or more stereogenic centers; stereoisomerism in cyclic structures; and substitution reactions at saturated carbon. Coverage extends to the use of NMR spectroscopy in stereochemistry. c. Book News Inc.
