Description - March's Advanced Organic Chemistry by Michael B. Smith

The new, revised and updated 7th edition of
March?s Advanced Organic Chemistry clearly explains
the theories and examples of organic chemistry, providing the most
comprehensive resource about organic chemistry available.
Readers are guided on planning and execution of multi-step
synthetic reactions, with detailed descriptions of all the
reactions. The first five chapters deal with the structure of
organic compounds and discuss important organic chemistry
bonds, fundamental principles of conformation, and stereochemistry
of organic molecules, and reactive intermediates in organic
chemistry. Chapters 6 to 9 are concerned with general
principles of mechanism in organic chemistry, including acids and
bases, photochemistry, sonochemistry and microwave irradiation, and
finally the relationship between structure and reactivity. The
last 10 chapters cover the nature and the scope of organic
reactions and their mechanisms.
The 7th edition proves again it is a must-have
desktop reference and textbook for every student and professional
working in organic chemistry or related fields.
Key features of the 7th edition:

Every chapter has been updated with the most recent reaction
information with references to both the primary and review
literature

New to the 7th edition: 5,500 references since the last
edition, updates / rewrites of the retained sections, and an
updated index in Appendix B

Contains more than 1650 reactions and 20,000 valuable
references to the primary literature

Includes appendices on the literature of organic chemistry and
the classification of reactions according to the compounds
synthesized

Guides the reader on planning and execution of multi-step
synthetic reactions, with detailed descriptions of all the
reactions. 

Reviews of the previous edition:
"...a favorite general organic chemistry text and an easy-to-use
one-volume reference. We are confident that this book will remain a
dominant reference and that it will reside on many chemists'
personal bookshelves." ?Journal of Medicinal
Chemistry
"Who can hope to be seriously accepted as a member of the
organic chemistry community without being in possession of at least
one edition of 'March'?" ?Chemistry and Industry
