This book helps readers move from fundamental organic chemistry principles to a deeper understanding of reaction mechanisms. It directly relates sophisticated mechanistic theories to synthetic and biological applications and is a practical, student-friendly textbook.
* Presents material in a student-friendly way by beginning each chapter with a brief review of basic organic chemistry, followed by in-depth discussion of certain mechanisms
* Includes end-of-chapter questions in the book and offers an online solutions manual along with Power Point lecture slides for adopting instructors
* Adds more examples of biological applications appealing to the fundamental organic mechanisms
