Descrizione Molecular Orbitals Student
Molecular orbital theory is used by chemists to describe the arrangement of electrons in chemical structures. It is also a theory capable of giving some insight into the forces involved in the making and breaking of chemical bonds--the chemical reactions that are often the focus of an organic chemist's interest. Organic chemists with a serious interest in understanding and explaining their work usually express their ideas in molecular orbital terms, so much so that it is now an essential component of every organic chemist's skills to have some acquaintance with molecular orbital theory. Molecular Orbitals and Organic Chemical Reactions is both a simplified account of molecular orbital theory and a review of its applications in organic chemistry; it provides a basic introduction to the subject and a wealth of illustrative examples. In this book molecular orbital theory is presented in a much simplified, and entirely non-mathematical language, accessible to every organic chemist, whether student or research worker, whether mathematically competent or not. Topics covered include: * Molecular Orbital Theory * Molecular Orbitals and the Structures of Organic Molecules * Chemical Reactions -- How Far and How Fast * Ionic Reactions -- Reactivity * Ionic Reactions -- Stereochemistry * Pericyclic Reactions * Radical Reactions * Photochemical Reactions Molecular Orbitals and Organic Chemical Reactions: Student Edition is an invaluable first textbook on this important subject for students of organic, physical organic and computational chemistry. "The new "Fleming" is a must for every lecturer and every student of chemistry--a fantastic book. In this new form the textbook will last for another 30 years and remain as fresh as did its predecessor!" - Angewandte Chemie International Edition
