Seyhan N. Ege Manufacturer: Houghton Mifflin Company ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0618318097 |
Book Description
This text's clear explanations and descriptions of the mechanisms of chemical reactions teach students how to apply principles in order to predict the outcomes of reactions. Early coverage of acid/base chemistry allows students to quickly grasp the concept that the structures of organic compounds determine their chemical reactivity. This new edition offers a strengthened focus on biological applications that renders the text more accessible to the majority of organic chemistry students and more consistent with the interdisciplinary nature of scientific research.
This text's unique pedagogy encourages meaningful analysis and evaluation. "A Look Ahead" sections at the beginning of each chapter introduce the chapter's main topics and objectives. "One Small Step" features apply familiar concepts to new reagents and reactions, encouraging students to analyze material rather than memorize the outcome to each new reaction. "Visualizing the Reaction" features help students recognize important reactions by demonstrating the complete mechanisms for each type of reaction. The "Problem-Solving Skills" sections offer students a systematic approach to solving organic chemistry problems, allowing them to reason their way to a solution. End-of-chapter materials include a summary that offers a concise review of major concepts or end-of-chapter tables that summarize the reactions that appear in the chapter.

Organic Chemistry Using Clays (Reactivity and Structure)
M. Balogh , and Pierre Laszlo Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0387557105 |
Book Description
The development of appropriate catalytic systems in the synthesis of fine chemicals is in constant progress. This book provides an overview of organic reactions catalyzed by clays (natural, activated and modified, including pillard clays) or performed by clay-supported reagents. The book should be of considerable interest to all research groups (academic and industrial) involved in heterogeneous catalysis. Organic reactions on clays are organized by reaction type. A rather comprehensive coverage of the literature is performed, including patent literature. Throughout, the approach to the subject is rational rather than empirical. From the contents: Acylation of Aromatic Compounds - Alkylation, Dealkylations, Transalkylations, Disproportionations Halogenations - Nitrations - Miscellaneous Substitution Reactions - Addition Reaction - Elimination Reactions - Oxidation, Dehydrogenation Reactions - Aromatization - Hydrogenation, Hydrogenloysis - Cyclization Reactions - Diels-Alder Reactions - Isomerization - Dimerization, Oxidative Dimerization - Rearrangements - Condensation Reactions - Thermal and Hydrolytic Decompositions - Reactions of Carbonyl Compounds - Reactions of Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives Amino Acid and Peptide Formation Under Prebiotic Conditions - Miscellaneous Reactions.

Structure and Reactivity in Organic Chemistry
Howard Maskill Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0198558201 |
Book Description
This book for advanced undergraduates covers areas of mechanistic and physical organic chemistry in a non-mathematical way. The topics included are essential in any modern chemistry degree, yet are not included in standard organic chemistry textbooks for undergraduates. The book starts with a consideration of molecular vibrations and intermolecular interactions, and introduces the use of potential energy profiles and reaction maps to describe organic chemical transformations. The relationship between kinetics and organic reaction mechanisms is then explored with special emphasis on the interpretation of activation parameters. The relationship between molecular structure and chemical reactivity, i.e. correlation analysis, is then covered, followed by a chapter on catalysis of organic chemical reactions in solution by small molecules. The treatment of catalysis explores how the molecular structure of compounds determines their reactivity either as substrates or as catalysts. The final chapter is devoted to isotope effects in mechanistic organic chemistry, concentrating on deuterium kinetic isotope effects.Customer Reviews:

The Barbier Reaction and Related One-Step Processes (Reactivity and Structure)
Cornelis Blomberg Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0387571698 |
Book Description
The one-step organic synthesis with metals discovered by Barbier almost 100 years ago was widely applied with magnesium as the main metal until the end of the 1960s. In modern Barbier reactions, the magnesium has been successfully replaced with lithium and zinc. More recently tin and aluminium have also been introduced together with other metals such as lead, manganese, cerium etc. Unexpected new developments, e.g., the use of aqueous solvents, are of great interest to synthetic chemists, especially those working with industrial processes increasingly controlled by ever-tighter environmental regulations. This book offers a completely new perspective on a simple synthetic method that has only been reviewed onece before by the same author some 15 years ago. Chapter one traces the development of reactions of metals with organohalides leading on to the Barbier reaction and finally to the Grignard reagent formation reaction. The second chapter deals with synthetic applications of the Barbier reaction. The following chapter discusses Barbier-type reactions with other metals. The fourth chapter is concerned with the detailed mechanism of the reaction. Finally, in the last chapter, technical details are presented which will enable practitioners to perform these one-step reactions smoothly and effectively.

The Geometric Phase in Quantum Systems: Foundations, Mathematical Concepts, and Applications in Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics)
J. Zwanziger Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:

ASIN: 3540000313 |
Book Description
Aimed at graduate physics and chemistry students, this is the first comprehensive monograph covering the concept of the geometric phase in quantum physics from its mathematical foundations to its physical applications and experimental manifestations. It contains all the premises of the adiabatic Berry phase as well as the exact Anandan-Aharonov phase. It discusses quantum systems in a classical time-independent environment (time dependent Hamiltonians) and quantum systems in a changing environment (gauge theory of molecular physics). The mathematical methods used are a combination of differential geometry and the theory of linear operators in Hilbert Space. As a result, the monograph demonstrates how non-trivial gauge theories naturally arise and how the consequences can be experimentally observed. Readers benefit by gaining a deep understanding of the long-ignored gauge theoretic effects of quantum mechanics and how to measure them.

Quantum Mechanics: Foundations and Applications
Donald Gary Swanson Manufacturer: Taylor & Francis ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1584887524 |
Book Description
Progressing from the fundamentals of quantum mechanics (QM) to more advanced topics, Quantum Mechanics: Foundations and Applications provides a comprehensive examination of many applications that pertain to modern physics and engineering. With nearly 200 problems, the book begins with an introductory chapter that reviews historical landmarks, discusses classical theory, and establishes a set of postulates. The next chapter demonstrates how to find the appropriate wave functions for a variety of physical systems in one dimension by solving the Schrödinger equation where for time-independent cases, the total energy is an eigenvalue. The following chapter extends this method to three dimensions, focusing on partial differential equations. In subsequent chapters, the author develops the appropriate operators, eigenvalues, and eigenfunctions for angular momentum as well as methods for examining time-dependent systems. The final chapters address special systems of interest, such as lasers, quarks, and hadrons. Appendices offer additional material, exploring matrices, functions, and physical constants. Relating theory with experiment, Quantum Mechanics: Foundations and Applications provides basic and complex information for physicists and engineers.

ASIN: 0595336922 |
Book Description
The conformal group is the invariance group of geometry (which is not understood), the largest one. Physical applications are implied, as discussed, including reasons for interactions. The group structure as well as those of related groups are analyzed. An inhomogeneous group is a subgroup of a homogeneous one because of nonlinearities of the realization. Conservation of baryons (protons can't decay) is explained and proven. Reasons for various realizations, so matrix elements, of the Lorentz group given. The clearly relevant mass level formula is compared with experimental values. Questions, implications and possibilities, including for differential equations, are raised.Customer Reviews:
