4-0 out of 5 stars CHEM 2319-1
highly recommended in companionship with the Organic Chemistry text book

bought for my ochem class

5-0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I wanted!
Although it is not brand new, it is intact and suit my purpose, not really highlighted at all. As a purpose for checking my HW answers and as a study guide, it is totally worth it!

4-0 out of 5 stars Study Guide/Solutions Manual
I've been using this solutions manual for about six weeks now, and I have found it generally helpful. I mainly only use it for the solutions to problems section, which is most times explanatory on answers. Rarely, however, a solution's explanation can be confusing, and sometimes the solution itself is very ambiguous. The study guide section for each chapter is very concise, and is to be studied only if one has read the actual textbook. Some sections aren't explained at all, and are left to the reader to re-read the textbook. These sections are ones that cannot be thoroughly explained without going into textbook-like detail, so I think that it is appropriate for the solutions manual to do this. Overall, I would definitely recommend this to someone who has the textbook, as the exercises in the textbook are most times not enough to supplement your understanding.

5-0 out of 5 stars A must
If you're in an ochem class that uses the Vollhardt and Schore textbook, I very strongly recommend buying this solutions manual. For each chapter it provides a section-by-section summary of the most important points and for the end of chapter questions it gives very detailed explanations of the answers. If an answer has the possibility of being unclear, it will explain, draw arrows, etc to make sure anyone can understand it. My favorite part is that it warns you about "tricks"; for example, in bold letters it will say tell you, "make sure you DON'T do this here", etc. Definitely worth the extra cost!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Manual!
This solutions guide is really great. The answers to all of the problems are given (mostly with detailed solutions). There are also very short guides that supplement chapters in the book. I would STRONGLY recommend this manual for anyone using the Vollhardt/Schore Organic Chemistry textbook. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description

Since its original appearance in 1977, Advanced Organic Chemistry has maintained its place as the premier textbook in the field, offering broad coverage of the structure, reactivity and synthesis of organic compounds. As in the earlier editions, the text contains extensive references to both the primary and review literature and provides examples of data and reactions that illustrate and document the generalizations. While the text assumes completion of an introductory course in organic chemistry, it reviews the fundamental concepts for each topic that is discussed.

The two-part fifth edition has been substantially revised and reorganized for greater clarity. Among the changes: Updated material reflecting advances in the field since 2001’s Fourth Edition, especially in computational chemistry; A companion Web site provides digital models for study of structure, reaction and selectivity; Solutions to the exercises provided to instructors online.

The material in Part A is organized on the basis of fundamental structural topics such as structure, stereochemistry, conformation and aromaticity and basic mechanistic types, including nucleophilic substitution, addition reactions, carbonyl chemistry, aromatic substitution and free radical reactions. Together with Part B: Reaction and Synthesis, the two volumes are intended to provide the advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate student in chemistry with a sufficient foundation to comprehend and use the research literature in organic chemistry.

4-0 out of 5 stars good
this product nice to purchase and shipping time is well managed
i m happy to buy this

2-0 out of 5 stars Poorly written text.
Carey and Sundberg Adv. Organic Chemistry is not a very effective book for learning Organic chemistry; explanations are often convoluted, poorly explained, and done in an unnecessarily roundabout fashion. Rather than present a basic concept and support it with various examples, the authors tend to simply present examples and expect the reader to understand different concepts by looking at examples, without properly explaining them. The authors also manage to divide the book into unmanageably large chapters, sections and subsections, yet still only managing to barely explain the concepts. Moreover, the problems at the end of each chapter frequently contain errors, and are often outdated. (Recently I encountered a problem which required the identification of the structure of a compound using, in part, NMR data. However, the paper referenced was from the 1960's, when NMR was not nearly as precise (i.e. peaks on a substituted aromatic ring would not be distinguishable). Ansyln and Dougherty is a preferable text.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great reference on latest theories
This book is an excellent reference on the latest developments in the theory and practice of synthetic and physical organic chemistry.As someone who did their graduate work more than 40 years ago, I found it to be a very good source of material for refreshing my knowledge of the subject.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good stuff, no solutions manual
Currently using this book for a graduate class in organic chemistry, and I've got to say, it's very good.It's a little dense, but I plan to use it for reference after this class anyway.There is, unfortunately, no solutions manual available for student purchase, but the professor was kind enough to get the solutions manual and copy it for everyone (this is why I gave this book 4 instead of 5 stars).A very nice little addition in this revision: computational chemistry has been integrated into the text, and DFT, MD, etc. calculations are not explained, but mentioned with suggested uses.

Editorial Review

Product Description
This is the first modern textbook, written in the 21st century, to make explicit the many connections between physical organic chemistry and critical fields such as organometallic chemistry, materials chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, and biochemistry. In the latter part of the 20th century, the field of physical organic chemistry went through dramatic changes, with an increased emphasis on noncovalent interactions and their roles in molecular recognition, supramolecular chemistry, and biology; the development of new materials with novel structural features; and the use of computational methods. Contemporary chemists must be just as familiar with these newer fields as with the more established classical topics. This completely new landmark text is intended to bridge that gap. In addition to covering thoroughly the core areas of physical organic chemistry – structure and mechanism – the book will escort the practitioner of organic chemistry into a field that has been thoroughly updated . The foundations and applicabilities of modern computational methods are also developed. Written by two distinguished researchers in this field, Modern Physical Organic Chemistry can serve as a text for a year-long course targeted to advanced undergraduates or first-year graduate students, as well as for a variety of shorter courses on selected aspects of the field. It will also serve as a landmark new reference text, and as an introduction to many of the more advanced topics of interest to modern researchers. An accompanying Student Solutions Manual will become available. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Modern Physical Organic Chemistry
This is the book that made me a chemist.

I used this book in the undergraduate class taught by one of the authors. It's a very clear, easy-to-follow text, taking the abstract concepts of physical chemistry and applying them in a qualitative sense to organic chemical bonding. Using molecular orbital theory, it builds up an intuitive sense of how orbitals define the structure and reactivity of molecules.

This is such and invaluable topic, and the book is so clearly written, that I ended up reading the whole thing, even though only about half the book was assigned reading. I felt like every paragraph I read taught me something new about the way reactions work. This is one of the few textbooks from my time as an undergraduate which is comprehensive enough and important enough to keep on my shelf through my entire career as an academic researcher.

5-0 out of 5 stars My favorite textbook.
This is, hands down, my favorite textbook.It is extremely thorough, and as such, it can be dense reading.However, it is one of the few books that I've read that's thorough but still comprehensible.As my professor said when we started our Physical Organic Chemistry course, "If you learn everything in this book, you will know more than me."

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome book
I originally had the Physical Organic book from Felix Carroll. Though that book is really good, I liked this book better for its detail and illustrations. It is a very good book to review concepts as well as learn in depth organic chemistry. I'm very picky about my books but was really glad this one was able to detail a subject I was having problems with: Felkin-Ahn models. So far it has helped me in studying for my cume's and I plan on keeping it for some time.

Truly recommend this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Must have...
This is the type of book that you will read and reference over and over again throughout the process of learning and researching advanced organic chemistry.The book does a great job of distilling down some of the common misnomers about vocabulary and ensures a comprehensive understanding of many areas within organic chemistry from chirality to non-covalent interactions and much more. I highly recommend this book to anyone pursuing a career in organic, polymer, and biochemistry. Thanks Amazon for delivering this to me in a timely manner and the book was in mint condition when received.

5-0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Phys Org. Chem Book
Modern Physical Organic Chemistry is a must have book for anyone who studies Organic Chemistry at the graduate level and has a desire for better (and complete) understanding of the foundations for every underlying concept in the field. Without being heavily centered on the Maths and calculations behind every concept, the authors still manage to go excessively deep into each of the topic covered to give you a fantastic understanding of them. I couldn't imagine getting through a Advanced Physical Organic Chemistry class without this book as a resource, and I would recommend over any other of its kind. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
John McMurry's international best-seller is widely and consistently praised as the most clearly written book on the market. Why? In John McMurry's words: "I have been asked hundreds of times over the past ten years why I wrote this book. I wrote this book because I love writing. I get great pleasure and satisfaction from taking a complicated subject, turning it around until I see it clearly from a new angle, and then explaining it in simple words. I write to explain chemistry to students the way I wish it had been explained to me years ago." Through his lucid writing and ability to show the beauty and logic of organic chemistry, McMurry makes learning enjoyable for students. The highest compliment that can be given to a chemistry book applies to McMurry: It works! Mainstream in level, McMurry's coverage is concise yet doesn't omit any key topics. McMurry blends the traditional functional-group approach with a mechanistic approach. The primary approach, by functional group, begins with the simple and progresses to the more complex so that readers who are not yet versed in the subtleties of mechanisms are first exposed to the "what" of chemistry before beginning to grapple with the "why." Within this primary organization, the author places a heavy emphasis on explaining the fundamental mechanistic similarities.In this edition, McMurry retains his standard-setting features (including his innovative vertical format for explaining reaction mechanisms) while revising his text line-by-line to include hundreds of small but important improvements. For example, the Sixth Edition includes new examples, additional steps in existing examples, new problems, new phrases to clarify the exposition, and a vibrant new art program. In addition, new icons in the text lead students to a variety of new online resources. McMurry's text is in use at hundreds of colleges and universities around the world, from North America, to the United Kingdom and the Pacific Rim. ... Read more

item delivered in good amount of time. Highly suggest this book for all students taking organic chemistry. It really helps with the final.

2-0 out of 5 stars This book is a good review, at best..
I recently took the acs organic national final (fall 09). I used this book only to prepare for my exam, due to the time constraints of my other finals. Just for your info I am a good organic student, making an A in organic 1 and having an A in organic 2 before the final at a very highly honored Chemistry institute (Marshall University). With that said this book isn't really worth the money unless your scenario fits mine, not enough time and don't know what else to look at. I had to make above a 35/70 for an A and I barely did that. The book is a general overview of the concepts on the test but the test itself is very complex. There was many things on the test I hadn't ever seen before (reactions and reagents). I wish you all good luck and in my opinion the book isn't worth it unless you have no other reliable options.

3-0 out of 5 stars ACS Organic Review Manual
Manual is excellent for preparing you for the ACS part of your organic final. However, the "like new" item that I received was hardly that. The material can be quickly reviewed and there are a few end of section questions to reinforce the material and it shouldn't detract from your normal textbook studies so you can do both if you're not too pressed for time. I definitely recommend you getting this manual just be careful on who you get it from. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Has Depth and Breadth
I chose this over the DUMMIES organic guide because I find the DUMMIES series formats visually unappealing, which makes a lot of difference in whether I actually want to sit down and read the book.

There was a great deal of information in the book, most of which was explained fairly well, but unlike one of the other reviewers, I wish that the author HAD spent more time on more basic concepts. I know a little about organic, though, so for me, it wasn't that big of a deal.

I found the treatment of topics pretty thorough, and I would generally recommend the book, but I wouldn't recommend it by itself. Having something else along with it would be more helpful. Of course, isn't that the case for most textbook-like books? One source just isn't enough if you really want a complete grasp of the material.

1-0 out of 5 stars One trillionth long scale or one billionth short scale?- micromicron, stigma, or bicron?
The arrogance of academia slams one into mystery within the very first paragraph. Why? Well for example, page 2 para 1:"... 1 A equals 1x10-10 m, or pm where 1 pm equals 1x10-12 m."

What? Forget the shorthand for picometre as used in particle physics? It used to be called a micromicron or stigma or bicron but that's okay to have a bit of mystery in the very first paragraph to dampen the student's enthusiasm isn't it?...coupled with the frustration of NO GLOSSARY of terms to assuage ones doubts in order to continue with some degree of certainty.

I bought this book to review my civil engineering education in wastewater treatment. I had received high marks in Organic Chemistry and loved the subject. Now I found myself scrambling through my old textbooks which I thought I would not have to do since buying this "demystification guide" ...but with NO GLOSSARY with which to reconfirm prior studies, and the author's arrogant presumption that the reader would just have to consult google or wikipedia for straight data, I give this work one pico-star for presumptuous teaching attitude.

4-0 out of 5 stars Seems somewhat shallow
For its volume, it seems that in many instances the author spends way too much time explaining simple concepts. I still would not want to downplay the value of this book as it might be a good resource for those with basic understanding of chemistry. After all this is the intent of the Demystified series to lay down scientific subjects as simple as possible. For those who are preparing for the MCAT and already have a tangible grasp of the subject, prepare to experience exactly this: the time spent on the book may be felt as spent inefficiently.

5-0 out of 5 stars Best Bet
I couldn't figure out which organic chem book was best from the Amazon reviews, so I ventured out to my local Borders bookstore and compared about 6 or 8 of them."Demystified" was the clear winner thanks to clarity and depth of explanation, chapter tests, a brief review of inorganic, and an engaging style of writing."Organic for Dummies" was my second choice (seemed insightful) but none of the others held up when checked side-by-side.For instance I checked out 'esters' in all books, and got a short paragraph in every one except Demystified, which managed to devote a few pages to an actual explanation. I even paid full retail for it - still a great deal for this book. (sorry Amazon)

5-0 out of 5 stars Very good supplement
Started with another common book as a supplement to my course that simply wasn't cutting it. I picked up this book and it is a very good course supplement! A good breakdown to simply better understand what a standard textbook and the prof is trying to get accross, this book is exactly what you need to make it all make sense. The quizzes are extremely helpful too! ... Read more

I don't know if I'm supposed to be reviewing the book or the person who sold it to me, but they were both very acceptable.

3-0 out of 5 stars This book might help some, but not me
At times, this book was more complicated than my main textbook for the class. The practice problems in this textbook were actually way harder and more complicated than anything I came across on my exams. The way I would work through this class was read the chapter in my text book, then read this book for clarification. After 4-5 chapters, I realized I was ending more confused than I started and just quit reading it. I think it's really hard to buy a good supplement for your text book when every professor teaches organic chemistry differently. Maybe this will be great for you and the way your professor teaches...but it didn't work out well for my class. But I got an A, so I'm not too bummed out.

The item never got to me. The seller never responded to my emails. It seems the seller scammed several people at the same time. Or the seller simply failed to mention that the item was being shipped from Australia, and that the postal workers are on strike.

A good find! Excellent condition. Exactly the copy I was looking for, and it shipped so quickly too! As a college student getting new books at fair prices is always important, thank goodness for amazon.com! I avoided waiting in a long bookstore line just to get to the checkout and pay too much for a junky and written all over used copy. Students check on amazon.com for your books before getting ripped off at the campus bookstores!

5-0 out of 5 stars This Book Made Chemistry Easy To Learn
Everything in the book was easy to understand. I am not sure how hard Chemistry is supposed to be since using this book explained all the concepts so simply. I was incredibly fortunate to be taught by Dr. Frost, one of the authors. Her style of teaching is all over this book. Direct, to the point, and simple to understand. The sections in each chapter were kept fairly short and I never felt overloaded with information. There were enough graphics, pictures, tables, and charts to explain the material visually. Interspersed in each section were practice problems to grasp the concepts before moving on and there were additional problems at the end of each chapter. This is a gem of a book and having it to study by allowed me to make an A in the class. Having never taken a Chemistry class before I didn't know what to expect. Sciences get a bum rap for being hard to understand yet I did not find this to be true at all with Dr. Frost's class or her book. Thank you Dr. Frost for your book and a really great class! ...

2-0 out of 5 stars smoked up
I have purchased books from Amazon before, but this time I really dont like the book I purchase and I would really like my money back, when I received my book, I could tell it was a chain smoker who had this book it reaked of smoke I cannot put any of my notes inside the book because it smells just like smoke and the outside of the book when you close it you can tell he or she spilled coffee along the pages.Someone should have really looked over this book before selling this piece of scrap to me.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Condition
I received my item in about a week and a half after I ordered it. And it was in perfect condition, still in shrink wrap.

1-0 out of 5 stars Never got the item
The item never got to me. The seller never responded to my emails. It seems the seller scammed several people at the same time. Or the seller simply failed to mention that the item was being shipped from Australia, and that the postal workers are on strike. I agree with the previous reviewer who said that this seller should be banned from amazon.

5-0 out of 5 stars great book
A good find! Excellent condition. Exactly the copy I was looking for, and it shipped so quickly too! As a college student getting new books at fair prices is always important, thank goodness for amazon.com! I avoided waiting in a long bookstore line just to get to the checkout and pay too much for a junky and written all over used copy. Students check on amazon.com for your books before getting ripped off at the campus bookstores!

5-0 out of 5 stars This Book Made Chemistry Easy To Learn
Everything in the book was easy to understand. I am not sure how hard Chemistry is supposed to be since using this book explained all the concepts so simply. I was incredibly fortunate to be taught by Dr. Frost, one of the authors. Her style of teaching is all over this book. Direct, to the point, and simple to understand. The sections in each chapter were kept fairly short and I never felt overloaded with information. There were enough graphics, pictures, tables, and charts to explain the material visually. Interspersed in each section were practice problems to grasp the concepts before moving on and there were additional problems at the end of each chapter. This is a gem of a book and having it to study by allowed me to make an A in the class. Having never taken a Chemistry class before I didn't know what to expect. Sciences get a bum rap for being hard to understand yet I did not find this to be true at all with Dr. Frost's class or her book. Thank you Dr. Frost for your book and a really great class! ...

3-0 out of 5 stars Boring science text and even worse online version from WileyPLUS
If you must get this text because it is required - I recommend you get an old version and buy the most inexpensive copy. It is a horrible resource with outdated stuffy examples. I guess it's just a typical science text book. The WileyPLUS online supplement is so bad! That's what prompted me to write the review. You can't even do something as basic as search the text- even a PDF format will allow you to do that. It is basically like reading a grouping of screen shots that make up the online text. It is so budget I can't believe Wiley dare's charge for it. No matter what, DON'T pay the extra cash to get the WileyPLUS online edition it is a rip off and dreadful user experience.

1-0 out of 5 stars No Wiley Plus
Don't waste your time with this book on Amazon if your class requires Wiley Plus. You will spend an additional 100 dollars buying the online access, which brings the total for this book to almost $260.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Text
This is the most comprehensive textbook on Organic Chemistry on the Market. It uses terminology that is suitable for its audience, assuming that those who would take organic chemistry have are at least partially intelligent. The book has excellent content and serves as a great tool for the aspiring chemist, or even the "I am just taking this to get my Med Degree" people. If you need "Wiley Plus" then you should do some research on who you buy from, as some books do not come with it.

1-0 out of 5 stars WARNING
This version of the text does not include the online supplement to the text (WileyPlus), as does other versions that can be purchased at university bookstores. I purchased the textbook in order to get a head start with my course work in organic chemistry over the summer. The price of the text with WileyPlus at my university bookstore is $5 less then the version Amazon sells without WileyPlus. I was very discouraged when I received my copy of the text from Amazon and found this to be the case. I contacted the publisher (Wiley), explained my situation, and I asked if they would help me. They said, "no" because, as their technology team leader put it, "I could generate a code for you, but I won't because giving out free codes isn't part of our business model." So much for corporate responsibility and helping students succeed academically. I think Wiley just wanted me to pay the outrageous $80 fee for a WileyPlus subscription in addition to the $160 I had already spent on their textbook. In the end I had to ship the book back to Amazon and order another copy of the book through the university bookstore. This was a waist of time that could have been better spent studying organic chemistry with my new textbook. My recommendation is that you should be careful about who you buy this textbook from; make sure your getting the most for your money. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars good
I did not use this book very much.It was good for helping with the process of the reactions and showing how the elements were moved through reactions.

5-0 out of 5 stars Best thing I ordered for school
This guide got me through organic chem, I only wish I'd bought it earlier in the semester and I might have four-pointed the class. Great idea if you're having a hard time studying by lecture alone. Gives very simple, concise summaries of concepts with lots of examples and diagrams.

5-0 out of 5 stars a must for orgo students!
This book simplifies the many aspects covered in "Fessenden & Fessenden" book, and the rxn's at the end are extremely helpful to study for exams. Unfortunately, this book doesn't really get into nucleic acids, but it does a great job covering all functional groups synthesis & rxns!A key book for reference as well as explanations regarding intermediates for rxns.A+

This was a great help to me as I prepared for my finals. The last few pages are especially helpful in summerizing the numerous reactions in organic chemistry. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a concise review before a test. ... Read more

Product Description
* Manufactured by Darling Model Kits, this custom kit was designed by T.W.Graham Solomons.
* The kit consists of Darling's basic Molecular Vision kit with a few additional pieces, so that p orbitals could be shown in molecules like acetylene.
* This customized kit also has pieces that allow linear geometry for the sigma bonds of alkynes while also having orthogonal connections at each atom for the associated p orbitals.
* By attaching balls of the right colors it is possible to show the lobes of the p orbitals that make up the pi bonds in an alkyne.
* Ball colors can be matched symmetrically to show in-phase orbital overlap, or antisymmetrically to show an antibonding state.
* Use of colored balls with the appropriate framework geometry is a very nice feature of the Darling model set.
* Pieces from Darling's inorganic model set and are used for octahedral geometry. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Not USEFUL; Horrible; WORST EVER; DON"T BUY
This molecular model kit sucks!! You cant even rotate stuff around freely. It's so hard to assemble a carbon with 4 attachments (SOMETHING THAT IS VERY BASIC). It is a piece of crap. If you go to any serious top 20 university and you try to use this molecular model kit, you will fail. DO NOT BUY. PAY A LITTLE EXTRA TO BUY A BETTER ONE OR TRY TO BORROW ONE FROM YOUR FRIENDS!! THIS KIT IS THE WORST EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5-0 out of 5 stars Better than anything else out there
While hunting for a modeling kit for my organic class, I initially skipped over this one based on all of the negative reviews. I initially went with a similarly priced kit with many more pieces and much better reviews. However, upon receiving that set, I found that all of the pieces were tiny, and frustrating and painful to put together. I looked for others, trying to avoid this kit, but all of the college-student affordable ones were similar, with lots if minuscule pieces.

In contrast, after getting this one, I found that this kit has solid feeling (for plastic) pieces that are large enough to easily assemble molecules with. Sure, it might have fewer pieces, but is preferable than "miniature" kits that are simply hard to use. If switching from the plastic box to a cardboard folding box saves them money, so be it! I have not found a modeling kit that compares in this price range.

3-0 out of 5 stars Not exactly as pictured, but good enough
I purchased this kit through amazon because it beat my bookstore price at the college by nearly ten bucks. The picture i saw depicted it in the plastic case as it is sold here, however it shipped with a piece of cardboard that folds very intricately into a cheap, tiny little box.has all pieces and manuals intact, so it will work good enough for me.

1-0 out of 5 stars Horrible
This molecular model kits is plain horrible. First of all, it comes in a plastic bag, not case like many of its competitors. Furthermore, the molecules created by this kit do not stay together. It is almost unusable.

1-0 out of 5 stars NOT THE ITEM PICTURED
I bought this kit expecting it to come with the plastic box as pictured but it does not. Instead it comes with a flimsy CARDBOARD BOX which will only last a few days at most taking it to school. Also the lack of a suitable box makes it IMPOSSIBLE TO ORGANIZE THE PIECES so you have to search in the box for the part you want. I would have returned it but as there were other items in my order and I got the super saver delivery it would cost about the same to return it as what I paid. ... Read more
