Alonso M.E. The Art of Problem Solving in Organic Chemistry

Wiley, 1987. — 168 p.This book helps students understand and solve the complex problems that organic chemists regularly face, using a step-by-step method and approachable text. With solved and worked-through problems, the author orients discussion of each through the application of various problem-solving techniques.
Teaches organic chemists structured and logical techniques to solve reaction problems and uses a unique, systematic approach.
Stresses the logic and strategy of mechanistic problem solving -- a key piece of success for organic chemistry, beyond just specific reactions and facts
Has a conversational tone and acts as a readable and approachable workbook allowing reader involvement instead of simply straightforward text
Uses 60 solved and worked-through problems and reaction schemes for students to practice with, along with updated organic reactions and illustrated examples
