Complete yet concise learning resource for organic chemistry exam training

Based on the author’s extensive teaching experience, this unique textbook comprises the essentials of organic chemistry in 86 chapters as concise, self-contained units of study. Each chapter, visually presented as one or two double pages, includes questions to allow for immediate and effective self-examination. Answers are summarized in the appendix.

Topics covered within the book include:

• Basic concepts (atomic and molecular orbitals, covalent bonding, hybridization, resonance, aromaticity)
• Molecular structure (atom connectivity, skeletal isomerism, conformation, configuration, chirality)
• The classes of organic compounds including natural products, polymers, and biopolymers
• Types, mechanisms, selectivity, and specificity of organic reactions
• Molecular structure elucidation (mass spectrometry, UV and visible light absorption, IR and NMR spectroscopy)
• Planning organic syntheses

The perfect fit for bachelor and master students alike, this book is an all-in-one resource for efficiently studying and passing organic chemistry exams.

Eberhard Breitmaier received his PhD in 1966 at the University of Tübingen, Germany. After a postdoctoral fellowship followed by an appointment as assistant professor for organic chemistry at the University of Houston, Texas, USA, from 1967 to 1968, he gained his lecturing qualification (habilitation) at the University of Tübingen in 1971. He was professor for organic chemistry and instrumental analysis at the University of Bonn, Germany, from 1975 to 2004. His research focused on 3-alkoxyacroleins as reagents for organic synthesis, porphyrinoid annulenes, and natural products. He has authored many scientific publications and several textbooks on organic chemistry, NMR spectroscopy, and natural products.
