Building on the legacy of a highly successful first edition, this book teaches a better and easier way to approach the subject--the arrow-pushing strategy that reduces organic chemistry to the study of interactions between organic acids and bases and builds from there. To help the students discouraged by the belief that this topic cannot be mastered without signi cant memorization, the 2nd edition of \u003ci\u003eArrow-Pushing in Organic Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e serves as a handy supplement for understanding the subject. New and updated chapters cover free radicals, carbenes, and pericyclic reaction mechanisms. Additionally, problem sets for each chapter emphasize the important concepts, reinforce the reader's knowledge of chemistry, and introduce other aspects of organic chemistry discussed in latter chapters or in a student's class. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey benefits and features of the 2nd edition include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew chapters, an expanded index, and additional problem sets complete with detailed solutions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduction of ionic and nonionic reactive species and reaction mechanisms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrategies to predict reactive species, sites of reactions, and reaction products\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA solid foundation upon which organic chemistry students can advance with con dence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDANIEL E.
