This textbook provides an introduction to the types of spectroscopy commonly used to determine the structure of organic molecules. Strategies for interpreting spectra are emphasized and the reader is encouraged to develop a systematic approach to elucidating molecular structure from the types of spectroscopic data routinely obtained in the laboratory. The first chapter discusses the type of information which spectroscopic methods can provide and the way in which this information can be used to determine organic structures. Infrared spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance are dealt with in detail in subsequent chapters. Much information has been summarized in graphical form or has been tabulated for ease of use.

Now in its third edition, this classic text covers many aspects of infrared and Raman spectroscopy that are critical to the chemist doing structural or compositional analysis. This work includes practical and theoretical approaches to spectral interpretation as well as a discussion of experimental techniques. Emphasis is given to group frequencies, which are studied in detailed discussions, extensive tables, and over 600 carefully chosen and interpreted spectral examples. Also featured is a unique treatment of group frequencies that stresses their mechanical origin. This qualitative approach to vibrational analysis helps to simplify spectral interpretation. Additional topics include basic instrumental components and sampling techniques, quantitative analysis, Raman polarization data, infrared gas contours, and polarized IR studies, among others. Among its key features, it: focuses on group frequency correlations and how to use them in spectral interpretation; is revised and updated by a pioneer in the field, Norman Colthup, who for thirty years has served as an expert lecturer for the Fisk Infrared Institute; explores new group frequency studies in aromatics, alkanes and olefins, among others; and includes completely updated section on instrumentation.

This book explains the various factors, particularly the chemical nature of the molecules, which influence and control the solubility of an organic compound in a particular solvent, especially organic solvents, mixed organic solvents, water and aqueous solutions. The book also explains how to predict the solubility of an organic compound in the solvents mentioned above. Furthermore, the book similarly treats the partition (distribution) coefficient of an organic compound between two relatively immiscible solvents. Thus solubility behaviour comprises both solubility and partitioning between two solvents. This book provides an understanding of concepts of solubility behaviour and practical means for predicting solubilities, partition coefficients and dissolution rates.

Carl Djerassi, primarily known as the inventor of the birth control pill, also developed many spectroscopic techniques for structure identification, including the earliest applications of mass spectroscopy of ORD/CD to organic chemical structure. His forceful manner and inquisitive mind are reflected in his prose to make this an enjoyable and educational work.

During the last two decades the photochemistry of organic molecules has grown into an important and pervasive branch of organic chemistry. In "Modern Molecular Photochemistry", the author brings students up to date with the advances in this field - the development of the theory of photoreactions, the utilization of photoreactions in synthetic sequences, and the advancement of powerful laser techniques to study the mechanisms of photoreactions.

In this classic introductory text, the authors aim to identify the new concepts of organic chemistry, to select the ones that are clearly fundamental to the learning of organic chemistry, and then to build them into a framework of the book. The cornerstone of this framework is that chemical behavior is determined by molecular structure. Each topic is presented fully and clearly at a level appropriate for beginning students. The authors emphasize relationships between the seemingly unrelated facts and theories that students are learning in order to reveal the broad and complex pattern underlying organic chemistry. Where possible, they lead the students to find the pattern themselves, by working problems.

Intermediate Organic Chemistry Second Edition Like its celebrated predecessor, Intermediate Organic Chemistry, Second Edition furnishes students with the information and conceptual skills they will need to make the transition from introductory to graduate-level organic chemistry and to fully comprehend published research. Revised and updated, this new edition features additional and improved examples, explanations which are more detailed and elaborated, and twice as many exercise problems - most based on actual studies in current articles - at the end of each chapter. Problems are presented in raw-data form to encourage multistep thinking and require students to solve problems from the beginning rather than from half-finished setups. The chapter on stereochemistry has been updated to include new terminology; and the chapter on nuclear magnetic resonance has been reframed in terms of pulsed high-field spectrometers. Other subjects covered include: reading nomenclature; searching the literature; functional group transformations; carbon-carbon bond formation; planning multistep syntheses; mechanisms and predictions; electron delocalization, aromatic character, and pericyclic reactions; and physical influences on reactions. An ideal text for one-semester, upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate courses, Intermediate Organic Chemistry, Second Edition eliminates the problem of selecting or omitting subjects from advanced texts. The book will also be useful to practicing chemists who wish to update their understanding of particular topics.

This lively autobiography begins with the neighborhood lots of New York where the author began experimenting with organic synthesis, resulting in his first publication while he was still living with his parents. Streitwieser traces his remarkable career from his early research in "wet" chemistry at Berkeley through his work on ab initio theoretical calculations and his "invention" of an entirely new series of compounds, the uranocenes, and analogs to the ferrocenes.

This book aims to provide a succinct yet rigorous presentation of organic chemistry for readers with a some background in the subject. The first five chapters review the basic principles of organic reactions and reactivity, such as structure and bonding, oxidation level, acidity and basicity, curved arrow notation, stereochemistry, and conformation. Functional group manipulation is covered in the next chapter, while chapters 7 and 8 concentrate on the methods employed in the production of new carbon-carbon bonds. Practical concerns--the planning of organic syntheses, the factors influencing organic reactions and their determination, and an overview of the ways to determine the structure of organic compounds--are covered in the final three chapters.
