Organic Synthesis, 4th Edition, provides a reaction-based approach to organic chemistry. Designed as a comprehensive textbook for graduate students from diverse academic backgrounds, the volume establishes practical working knowledge of synthetic methods and basic chemical reactions.
Thematic coverage introduces core structural principles and synthetic planning, including basic retrosynthesis and functional group exchange reactions. The text also examines extensive pathways for carbon-carbon bond formation, emphasizing the practical reactions required to complete a complex synthesis.
To support student study, this edition incorporates Spartan-generated molecular models and visualizations throughout the chapters. The work was recognized as the winner of the 2018 Textbook Excellence Award from the Textbook and Academic Authors Association.
