ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

---

This book is intended for use in the first organic chemistry course taken by students
majoring in chemistry, biochemistry, biological sciences, and other healthrelated
fields. The unique organization of this book sets it apart from many other
texts in this area; specifically, this text is organized according to the mechanisms of the
presented organic reactions rather than according to functional groups. It covers all of
the same material usually found in a book using the functional group approach but in
an order based on mechanistic themes.

The organic chemistry course is a pivotal class taken by science students. In addition
to the inherent importance of organic reactions in chemistry and biology, organic
chemistry introduces and develops a type of reasoning and logic that is new to many
students. A solid understanding of this subject is often critical to subsequent success in
a science career.

Organic chemistry often has a reputation among students as being a very difficult
course, involving an enormous amount of memorization. For students who approach the
course by attempting to memorize all of the important information, it is a daunting subject
indeed. The goals of this text are to help students be successful in organizing this
vast amount of material, to stimulate their interest by making organic chemistry understandable
and relevant, to demonstrate the logic and beauty of the field, and to provide
a method to remember all of those many reactions.

Using an organization based on reaction mechanisms rather than the approach
based on functional groups has always appealed to me. I believe that the mechanism
approach encourages students to develop an understanding of why things occur
rather than just memorizing what occurs. In writing this book, my goal throughout
has been to present organic chemistry in a way that is clear, understandable, and accessible
to students. Mechanisms are used as the organizing principle that helps students
learn organic chemical behavior, not as the major concept to be learned.

Unlike a graduate-level or advanced undergraduate book, this text is not intended to
be an encyclopedia of mechanisms. Those mechanisms that are general and that organize
a number of reactions are emphasized, whereas those that are uncommon are
often not covered at all.
