Description For full-year courses in organic chemistry taken by science and pre-health professions majors. This innovative text is organized in a way that discourages rote memorization, by emphasizing what functional groups do rather than how they are made, highlighting mechanistic similarities and tying synthesis and reactivity together. Bruice's writing has been praised for anticipating students' questions, appealing to their visual and problem solving needs.
The text balances coverage of traditional topics with bioorganic chemistry, recognizing the importance of bioorganic topics to today's students. Content and Approach. Functional groups are organized around mechanistic similarities. This organization allows a great deal of material to be understood in light of unifying principles of reactivity.
Synthesis and reactivity are tied together. When discussing a functional group's reactivity, the text covers the synthesis of compounds that are formed as a result of that reactivity, often by having students design synthetic schemes. This strategy helps prevent students from having to memorize lists of unrelated reactions. It also economizes the presentation, allowing more material to be covered in less time. Synthesis.
Students are introduced to synthetic chemistry and retrosynthetic analysis early in the book (chapters 3 and 5). Since students have a limited number of reactions to work with at this point, the early introduction provides a greater progression to learning this skill. 'Designing a Synthesis' sections appear throughout the text—Help students learn to efficiently design multi-step syntheses. Many multi-step problems include the synthesis of compounds that students recognize (Novocain, Valium, ketoprofen). Provides a good way for students to review reactions they have learned. Also shows how synthetic organic chemists approach problems. Bioorganic Chemistry.
Rich biological applications, more than any other organic text. Shows students how chemistry relates to bio and medical fields. Bioorganic and applied topics—Covered in over 130 interest boxes integrated throughout the text meant to serve as intriguing asides. For example:. Why are Dalmatians the only mammals that exrete uric acid?.
Why is life based on carbon instead of silicon?. Trans fats. In the first 2/3 of the text, the bioorganic material often appears at the end of the chapters for easy identification and assignability/exclusion. Ties the chemistry to the biology that students (most of whom are pre-meds) are learning simultaneously. Chapters 21-27 focus heavily on bioorganic topics.
The chapters have the unique distinction of containing more chemistry than is typically found in the corresponding parts of a biochemistry text. Pedagogical Devices. End-of-Chapter Summaries. Recapitulate the major concepts of the chapter in a concise narrative format. 'Voice box' annotations. Helps students focus on the points being discussed.
Biographical sketches Brief biographies of the chemists who defined Organic Chemistry. Humanizes the science by reinforcing for students that these discoveries were the result of personal endeavor, sometimes after overcoming significant adversities. Margin notes. Emphasize core ideas and remind students of important principles to help them grasp concepts in the text. Reaction Summaries included in each chapter that covers reactions. Ensures that students understand and can explain how each reaction occurs. Chapter-end treatment of key terms—Offers a handy page reference to refresh skills.
Helps students assess their knowledge of the language of organic chemistry before proceeding. Problem-Solving Support. Solved Problems throughout the chapter.
Help students learn how to approach and solve problems before testing themselves at the end of the chapter. Problem-Solving Strategies—Each problem-solving strategy is followed by an exercise that gives students an opportunity to use the problem-solving skill just learned.
Teach students how to approach a variety of problems, organize their thoughts, and improve their problem-solving abilities. Graded problem difficulty. The end-of-chapter problems vary in difficulty. They begin with drill problems that integrate material from the entire chapter, requiring students to think in terms of all the material in the chapter rather than focusing on individual sections. The problems become more challenging as the student proceeds, often reinforcing concepts from prior chapters. The net result for the student is a progressive building of both problem solving ability and confidence.
More problems throughout—Over 1800 problems for assignment and student practice. Explicity illustrates for students that the same principles are repeated throughout their course. NEW Concept heading statements frame the context of the discussion to follow rather than merely title the section. NEW Stepped-out mechanisms clearly delineate the mechanisms of the reactions in a way that is integral to the text, but significantly highlighted ADDITIONAL/REVISED EXERCISES All problems throughout the text have been extensively reviewed and revised. Usuccessful problems have been excised and replaced by new problems. In addition, the total number of problems has increased.
New problems and revisions to existing problems originate from suggestions by reviewers and Paula Bruice's students. THREE NEW SPECIAL TOPICS TUTORIALS in the Study Guide, making a total of seven. The Tutorials can effectively replace the need for the additional books students are often asked to purchase. Now available:.

Two-electron processes. I: AN INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY 1. About the Author(s) Paula Yurkanis Bruice was raised primarily in Massachusetts, Germany, and Switzerland and was graduated from the Girls' Latin School in Boston. She received an A.B. From Mount Holyoke College and a Ph.D. In chemistry from the University of Virginia.
She received an NIH postdoctoral fellowship for study in biochemistry at the University of Virginia Medical School, and she held a postdoctoral appointment in the Department of Pharmacology at Yale Medical School. She is a member of the faculty at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where she has received the Associated Students Teacher of the Year Award, the Academic Senate Distinguished Teaching Award, and two Mortar Board Professor of the Year Awards. Her research interests concern the mechanism and catalysis of organic reactions, particularly those of biological significance. Paula has a daughter and a son who are physicians and a son who is a lawyer. Her main hobbies are reading mystery/suspense novels and her pets (three dogs, two cats, and a parrot).
