Succeeding in Organic Chemistry - Joseph C. Sloop

This text is specifically designed to help introductory Organic Chemistry students understand the fundamental concepts covered in undergraduate organic chemistry. The purpose of this book is three-fold: to explode the misconceptions and misgivings that are prevalent regarding this vast subject, provide additional insight for students on a number of concepts essential to mastery of organic chemistry, and explore alternative learning strategies to assist the beginning organic chemistry student in applying a specialized problem solving technique which centers on structure, function and a mechanistic approach. Examples of key chemical transformations are dissected and analyzed to assist students in improving their problem-solving skills. Each chapter contains a number of additional problems and the solutions to those problems are provided at the end of each chapter.
