Description

This undergraduate text deals with the fundamental chemistry of fully saturated and unsaturated 4-, 5-, and 6-membered heterocycles. The text introduces a selection of important heterocyclic compounds and the roles they play in life, medicine, and industry, focusing on compounds containing a single nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur atom. Conformation aspects of heterocyclic chemistry are examined, and aromatic stabilization, nomenclature, reaction mechanisms, and methods of synthesis are discussed. The text is written for students in the second year of an undergraduate degree course in chemistry or biochemistry. The author is affiliated with the University of Bath.
