Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions and Mechanisms

For students of B.Sc./M.Sc. Chemistry. Practising professionals in various chemical, bio-chemical and pharmaceutical industries Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions and Mechanisms provides an up-to-date and comprehensive account of the structural and mechanistic concepts of organic chemistry. The book is based on three important principles: first, the four types of reactions - substitution, addition, elimination and rearrangement second, the three types of reagents - nucleophiles, electrophiles and radicals and third, the two effects - electronic and stearic - through which the behaviour of a particular reaction can be proposed.
