Core Carbonyl Chemistry By John Jones (Lecturer in Organic Chemistry, University of Oxford Official Fellow, Tutor and Dean, Lecturer in Organic Chemistry, University of Oxford Official Fellow, Tutor and Dean, Balliol College, Oxford)

Summary

This Primer deals, in a brisk manner within a modern mechanistic framework, with the chemistry of the carbonyl group as found in aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acid derivatives. This material is central to all foundation courses in organic chemistry and will be useful to all university students reading chemistry or biochemistry, especially in the first year.

Core Carbonyl Chemistry Summary

Core Carbonyl Chemistry by John Jones (Lecturer in Organic Chemistry, University of Oxford Official Fellow, Tutor and Dean, Lecturer in Organic Chemistry, University of Oxford Official Fellow, Tutor and Dean, Balliol College, Oxford)

This new primer offers a thorough understanding of the carbonyl group, knowledge essential for an understanding of organic chemistry. The Carbonyl groups appears in many classes of compounds, Core Carbonyl Chemistry covers the chemistry of these classes in a brisk style, and also embraces the reactivity of this group. Recent developments are dealt with where appropriate. The study of this material is a vital part of all university year and/or second year courses in chemistry or biochemistry, and this Primer will be useful to all students taking such courses.

Core Carbonyl Chemistry Reviews

Core Carbonyl Chemistry is recommendable particularly to first year degree students as the subject matter as presented is a microcosm of organic chemistry, describing reactions, their mechanisms and conditions and their synthetic relevance. Warmly recommended, especially as a supplement to a brief lecture course. * Aslib Book Guide, vol. 63, no. 3, March 1998 *
