Description for Basic Organic Stereochemistry
Paperback. Stereoisomers are compounds with the same chemical formula and the same connectivity, but different arrangements in three-dimensional space. The study of stereoisomers and their chemical effects is known as stereochemistry. Despite having identical chemical formulae, stereoisomers can have drastically different biological properties. Num Pages: 704 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: PNN; PSB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 233 x 161 x 37. Weight in Grams: 1004.
Stereoisomers are compounds with the same chemical formula and connectivity but with different arrangements of their atoms in 3-dimensional space. Stereochemistry encompasses the study of stereoisomers and their properties. Despite having an identical chemical formula, stereoisomers can have drastically different biological, medicinal, and chemical properties. Basic Organic Stereochemistry explains in clear, concise terms the concepts and properties of stereoisomers.
Ideal both as a text for advanced undergraduate or graduate students and as a handy guide for researchers in industry, this superb text covers:
