Advances In Physical Organic Chemistry

The objective of the serial is to present considered reviews on the quantitative study of organic compounds and their behavior--physical organic chemistry in its broadest sense--in a manner accessible to a general readership.

This is a well-established series for the publication of authoritative reviews on the methods and results of the application of quantitative physical and mathematical methods to organic chemistry. The authors are acknowledged experts in their particular fields, and the contributions give the reader an up-to-date account of different aspects of physical organic chemistry. In the pursuit of challenging problems of organic chemistry, the series encourages forward-looking reviews on a variety of topics, not all of which may as yet conform to conventional notions of the scope of the field.

Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry provides the chemical community with authoritative and critical assessments of the many aspects of physical organic chemistry. The field is a fast developing one, with results and methodologies finding application from biology to solid state physics. The previous volumes in this serial constitute a lasting record of this field and will continue to do so as they are widely used and cited. The serial has maintained high levels of quality and utility over the years. Volume 35, devoted to the study of carbocations and free radicals, includes contributions on excess acidities, the relationship between structure and organic reactivity, electron transfer, bond-breaking and formation, donor/acceptor organizations, and the electron-transfer paradigm for organic reactivity. Readers will also benefit from the comprehensive subject and citation index.

Volume 32 is proof again of the platform provided by Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry for some of the most interesting and diverse papers being produced today. Contributions by academic and industrial chemists give the volume a perspective useful to those working in both fields.

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.
