This note covers the following topics: UV or IR spectroscopy,
molecular formulas, introduction to nmr spectroscopy, proton nmr chemical
shifts, symmetry and nmr, proton-proton coupling, carbon13 nmr, aldehydes or
ketones, carboxylic acids and derivatives, retrosynthesis , enolates, aromatics,
amines, pericyclic reactions.
This textbook is to be
used by advanced students of Master's degree programmes specializing in
chemistry on core principles of organic chemistry, with key topics including
bonding in organic molecules, structural and stereochemical features, and
fundamentals of nucleophilic substitution reactions. It further discusses the
stereochemistry nature of organic compounds and chemical bonds, which is one of
the key areas involved in explaining the behavior of molecules in various
chemical reactions. The penetration of the elaboration of various kinds of
organic reactions and the theory behind them makes it an indistinguishable
resource for students looking to dig deep into the concepts of organic chemistry
and its application.
This textbook is
designed for students in biology, biochemistry, or the health sciences and is
meant to bridge the gap between organic chemistry on one side and biological
systems on the other. It rapidly covers foundational topics like organic
structure, bonding, and stereochemistry but emphasizes the biological relevance
of organic reactions. This text includes determining structures, organic
reactivity, and important reaction types- nucleophilic substitutions and
acid-base equilibria-in biological contexts. It goes into detail to show
examples about how the principles of organic chemistry apply in the study of
biochemical processes, making it a very useful resource for the student in life
sciences who needs a practical understanding of organic chemistry in biological
systems.
