A study of stereochemistry now form an essential part of the chemistry courses in all universities. It is inseparably linked with virtually all branches of chemistry notably syntheic and mechanistic chemistry, and polymer chemistry. Stereochemistry has always occupied a central position and is pivotal to the practice of organic chemistry. A solid understanding of this subject is indeed critical to subsequent success in a science career. The new eighth edition p[rovides further problems (and answers) and examples to help in understanding the material in each chapter in a much better way. Stereochemistry is a hugely important facet of chemistry and the study of sterochemical problems spans the entire range of this subject: organic, inorganic, biological, physical and supramolecular chemistry. Stereochemistry includes methods for determining and describing these relationships; the effect on the physical or biological properties these relationship impart upon the molecules in question, and the manner in which these relationships influence the reactivity of the molecules in question (dynamic stereochemistry). This book provides a comprehensive cooverage of all fundamental aspects of organic stereochemistry. In clear and concise terms it describes the concepts and properties of steroisomers.
