The two‎-part‎,‎ fifth edition of Advanced Organic Chemistry has been substantially revised and reorganized for greater clarity‎.‎ The material has been updated to reflect advances in the field since the previous edition‎,‎ especially in computational chemistry‎.‎ Part A covers fundamental structural topics and basic mechanistic types‎.‎ It can stand‎-alone‎;‎ together‎,‎ with Part B‎:‎ Reaction and Synthesis‎,‎ the two volumes provide a comprehensive foundation for the study in organic chemistry‎.‎ Companion websites provide digital models for study of structure‎,‎ reaction and selectivity for students and exercise solutions for instructors‎.‎
