This work is designed as a comprehensive textbook for a course in organic synthesis. The book has been organized in the nine chapters. The first chapter introduces the subject of reaction intermediates with regards to their geometry, stability generation and their role in organic reactions. Chapter 2 discusses the wide spectrum of oxidation-reduction methods and the structure selectivity relationship of these reagents. Chapter 3 explains the usefulness of enolate anion as an essential tool in building the carbon-carbon bond. Because of the increasing importance of Organo-metallic reagents in synthesis they have been discussed in Chapter 4. Photochemical methods, which hold a special, position in the synthesis of strained ring systems form a part of chapter 5. The Diels-Alder reaction is treated with illustrated examples in Chapter 7 while Chapter 6 and 8 deal with the familiar reactions of addition to carbon-carbon double bond and aromatic electrophilic substitutions respectively, which are frequently employed in synthesis. The last chapter is concerned with timely and useful special topics and comprises the most recent techniques like ultrasound, electroorganic synthesis, microwave heating, reactions on inorganic supported reagents and phase transfer catalysis. Mechanisms of reactions have been emphasized where necessary. Several new developments in synthesis -Tandem Diels-Alder reactions, sharpless epoxidation, di ii methane rearrangement, distereoselections in the preparation of Grignard reagents, pericyclic reactions and reduction of prochiral ketones have been highlighted at the proper places. Included are recent bibliography, problems and references for further reading.

Heterocyclic chemistry is an expanding subject, thanks to the research currently being done in the field. Heterocyclic components have many diverse applications in pharmacy, medicine, agriculture and other life sciences, so there is a constant need for updated information.
This fourth edition retains many of the features that have proved successful in prior editions. It consists of 11 comprehensive chapters, which discuss the heterocyclic components ring by ring with an emphasis on the stereochemistry of reactions and their mechanisms.
Each chapter is very well referenced, with a thoroughly updated bibliography and contains a set of self- assessment problems at the end for the reader to answer.
The book is intended for use as a textbook on courses in heterocyclic chemistry, but it is also relevant to biochemistry, pharmacy and medicine, and will be a valuable addition to any medical or life science library.

This book covers nearly all topics in organic chemistry taught upto the b.sc. Level. Topics like resonance, h-bond, hybridization, iupac nomenclature, acid-base theory of organic compounds, stereochemistry, structure reactivity relationship and spectroscopy have been introduced early in the book. Subsequent chapters deal with synthetic polymers, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols and phenols, ethers, aldehydes, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, carbohydrates, organometallics and terpenes. These topics have been discussed in-depth and in a comprehensive manner. A great deal of attention has been focussed on chemical reactions and their mechanisms. The scope and limitations of the reactions have been stated. Certain topics of general interest namely c.n.g., l.p.g., simple drugs, dna finger printing, pufa, trans fatty acids, soaps and detergents, pesticides, industrial alcohols, coal tar, octane number, chromatography, and artificial sweeteners have been highlighted at appropriate places. Also included are approximately 900 in-text and end-of-the-chapter problems, and a set of multiple choice questions (mcq) at the end of each chapter. A glossary of important terms is also included. This book has been designed as a comprehensive textbook for students upto b.sc. Level. In addition, the book will be immensely useful for those preparing for competitive examinations like i.i.t., aieee, medical entrance and others. About the author: dr. Raj k.
