Book Description
The fundamental logic arguments of organic chemistry are emphasized in this book. Resonance effects, inductive effects and steric effects are used to explain most of the common types of organic reactions. Arrow pushing and mechanism are presented with each type of reaction, most of which utilize nucleophile and electrophile chemistry. Only two free radical reactions are presented (sp3 C-H substitution and HBr addition to alkenes). Limited examples are chosen for each 'typical' type of reaction covered in the year-long course, rather than comprehensive coverage, that often overwhelms beginning students. The book is only about a third the size of most current organic textbooks. It is also "self published" in order to keep the cost to a minimum. That means I am not only the author, I am also the editor. If you decide to use this book, you immediately become my co-editor. Let me know when you find any inevitable errors (thanks!). This book represents my 40 years of teaching organic chemistry and my hope that it makes organic chemistry 'understandable'. Enjoy the journey.

Natural Product Biosynthesis
Author: Christopher T Walsh
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry
ISBN: 1839168013
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1133
Book Description
Authored by leading experts in the enzymology of natural product biosynthesis, this completely revised and updated edition provides a description of the types of natural products, the biosynthetic pathways that enable the production of these molecules, and an update on the discovery of novel products in the post-genomic era. Although some 500 000 – 600 000 natural products have been isolated and characterized over the past two centuries, there may be a 10-fold greater inventory awaiting immediate exploration based on biosynthetic gene cluster predictions. The approach of this book is to codify the chemical logic that underlies each natural product structural class as they are assembled from building blocks of primary metabolism. This second edition integrates many new findings into the sets of principles of the first edition that parsed categories of natural product chemistries into the underlying enzymatic mechanisms and the catalytic machinery for building the varied and complex end product metabolites. New chapters include evaluation of a core set of thermodynamically activated but kinetically stable metabolites that power both primary and secondary metabolic pathways. Also, after decades of uncertainty about the existence of various pericyclase classes, a series of genome mining, heterologous expression, and enzymatic activity characterization have validated a plethora of pericyclases over the past decade. The several types of pericyclases are involved in biosynthetic complexity generation of almost every major category of natural products. This text will serve as a reference point for chemists of every subdiscipline, including synthetic organic chemists and medicinal chemists. It will also be valuable to bioinformatic and computational biologists, pharmacognocists and chemical ecologists, and bioengineers and synthetic biologists.

The Art of Writing Reasonable Organic Reaction Mechanisms
Author: Robert B. Grossman
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387954686
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
Intended for students of intermediate organic chemistry, this text shows how to write a reasonable mechanism for an organic chemical transformation. The discussion is organized by types of mechanisms and the conditions under which the reaction is executed, rather than by the overall reaction as is the case in most textbooks. Each chapter discusses common mechanistic pathways and suggests practical tips for drawing them. Worked problems are included in the discussion of each mechanism, and "common error alerts" are scattered throughout the text to warn readers about pitfalls and misconceptions that bedevil students. Each chapter is capped by a large problem set.
