Organic Chemistry, Seventh Edition, continues the successful student-oriented approach used in prior editions. This text uses less prose and more diagrams and bulleted summaries for today’s students, who rely more heavily on visual imagery to learn than ever before. Each topic is broken down into small chunks of information that are more manageable and easily learned. Organic chemistry is a dynamic subject that is continually refined as new facts are determined. Each year, novel compounds are discovered, and new drugs are marketed, and these compounds replace older examples to illustrate particular concepts. In this edition, for example, every effort has been made to include content on COVID-19.

Succeed in the course with this student-friendly, proven text. Designed throughout to help you master key concepts and improve your problem-solving skills, CHEMISTRY, Seventh Edition includes a running margin glossary, end-of-chapter in-text mini study guides, a focus on “how to” skills, and more in-chapter examples and problems than any text on the market. To help you understand reaction mechanisms, the authors offset them in a stepwise fashion and emphasize similarities between related mechanisms using just four different characteristics: breaking a bond, making a new bond, adding a proton, and taking a proton away. Thoroughly updated throughout, the book offers numerous biological examples for premed students, unique roadmap problems, a wide range of in-text learning tools, and integration with an online homework and tutorial system, which now includes an interactive multimedia eBook.
