Organic chemistry is not merely a compilation of principles, but rather, it is a disciplined method of thought and analysis. Success in organic chemistry requires mastery in two core aspects: fundamental concepts and the skills needed to apply those concepts and solve problems. Readers must learn to become proficient at approaching new situations methodically, based on a repertoire of skills. These skills are vital for successful problem solving in organic chemistry. Existing textbooks provide extensive coverage of, the principles, but there is far less emphasis on the skills needed to actually solve problems. WileyPLUS is now equipped with an adaptive learning module called ORION. Based on cognitive science, WileyPLUS with ORION, provides students with a personal, adaptive learning experience so they can build their proficiency on topics and use their study time most effectively. WileyPLUS with ORION helps students learn by learning about them. Over 230 new Literature-Based Challenge problems: Problems are based on the chemical literature (real-world laboratory reference provided for each one) and designed to be thought-provoking puzzles that are challenging, but possible to solve with the principles and skills developed in the textbook. Each chapter has 8-10 literature-based challenge problems and integrated problems 10% NEW Medically Speaking& Practically Speaking applications and NEW table of pKa values NEW appendix containing rules for naming compounds with more than one functional group Rewritten for clarity: Chapter 7: Substitution Reactions/Section 7.5: The SN1 Mechanism, Chapter 20: Aldehydes and Ketones/Section 20.7 :Mechanism Strategies, Chapter 20: Aldehydes and Ketones/Section 20.10: Carbon Nucleophiles
