Page 7 - Advanced Organic Chemistry Part B - Reactions & Synthesis

Acknowledgment and Personal Statement, the selection of material in the examples vii
and schemes does not reflect priority, importance, or generality. It was beyond our
capacity to systematically survey the many examples that exist for most reaction types, Preface
and the examples included are those that came to our attention through literature
searches and reviews.
Several computational studies have been abstracted and manipulable three-
dimensional images of reactants, transition structures, intermediates, and products
provided. This material provides the opportunity for detailed consideration of these
representations and illustrates how computational chemistry can be applied to the
mechanistic and structural interpretation of reactivity. This material is available in the
Digital Resource at springer.com/carey-sundberg.
As in previous editions, the problems are drawn from the literature and references
are given. In this addition, brief answers to each problem have been provided and are
available at the publishers website.
