Aromatic Chemistry Summary

Aromatic Chemistry by Malcolm Sainsbury (Reader in Chemistry, Department of Chemistry, Reader in Chemistry, Department of Chemistry, University of Bath)

All the basic principles of this important topic are clearly presented here in an account which takes as examples many compounds of industrial and biological significance. Consideration is given to the structure, reactions, and properties of benzene and classes of aromatic compounds derived from it, and topics such as thermodynamic versus kinetic control and pericyclic reactions are introduced. The text also covers polycyclic arenes and the small and large ring systems which are embraced by the wider definition of aromaticity.

Aromatic Chemistry Reviews

`treatment is authoritative ... could usefully supplement a first or second year degree course of lectures' Aslib Book List, Vol. 58, No. 2, February 1993
'The text is well organised, clearly presented and concise, and allows the reader readily to gain an appreciation and understanding of the subject material. The Oxford Chemistry Primers aim to provide students with self-contained, clear, concise, and straightforward accounts of essential topics in organic chemistry. In my view the present text fulfils these aims admirably ... it represents very good value and is to be highly recommended.' Times Higher
'well written with a design format which is easy to follow ... The numerous diagrams used throughout the texts are clear, concise and informative. A good reading material for first year organic chemistry stuents and good value for money.' N. Peerzada, Chemistry in Australia - March 1994
