Description
Summary:"Physical organic chemists' thinking revolutionized organic chemistry. Their model of the reaction mechanism completely changed how all organic chemists approached the identification and synthesis of new molecules. Classic physical organic chemistry experiments and their interpretation are presented in a way to display their exquisite design and philosophy. The emphasis is on how organic chemists constructed models to predict the world of organic chemistry. The book helps a student in an organic chemistry class create their own chemical intuition. For the non-specialist, the book generalizes the logic of physical organic chemistry so that these concepts can be utilized in other disciplines"--
