organic chemistry: concepts, methods and applications

Organic chemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the study of structures of organic compounds. The structural analysis of organic compounds is done through the examination of chemical and physical properties such as solubility, boiling and melting points and structural composition of solid compounds. Some of the significant aspects of organic chemistry are systems of classification of organic compounds, synthesis design, applications of organic synthesis, etc. It has applications for other purposes such as development of antibiotics, detecting food adulteration, disease diagnosis, etc. The book strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. It attempts to present some fundamental concepts and aspects of the field. The comprehensive division of chapters and extensive use of examples make this book a reference guide for students and researchers alike.
