Organic Chemistry Summary

Organic Chemistry: Structure and Function by Peter Vollhardt

Organic Chemistry: Structure and Function 8e maintains the classic framework with a logical organization that an organic molecule's structure will determine its function and strengthens a focus on helping students understand reactions, mechanisms, and synthetic analysis and their practical applications.
The eighth edition presents a refined methodology, rooted in teaching expertise to promote student understanding and build problem solving skills.
Paired with SaplingPlus, students will have access to an interactive and fully mobile ebook, interactive media features and well respected Sapling tutorial style problems-Where every problem emphasizes learning with hints, targeted feedback and detailed solutions as well as a unique pedagogically focused drawing tool.

About Peter Vollhardt

K. Peter C. Vollhardt - got his Ph.D. with Professor Peter Garratt at the University College, London, and was a postdoctoral fellow with Professor Bob Bergman (then) at the California Institute of Technology. He moved to Berkeley in 1974 when he began his efforts toward the development of organocobalt reagents in organic synthesis, the preparation of theoretically interesting hydrocarbons and the assembly of novel transition metal arrays with potential in catalysis. He is the current Chief Editor of Synlett. Among his more than 350 publications, he treasures especially this textbook in organic chemistry, translated into 13 languages.
Neil Schore - He first met co-author Peter Vollhardt in the 1970s when they both were doing postdoctoral work in Professor Robert Bergman's laboratory at Cal Tech. Since joining the UC-Davis faculty in 1976, Schore has taught organic chemistry to more than 15,000 nonchemistry majors, winning seven teaching awards and publishing over 100 papers in various areas related to organic chemistry.
