This book details the concepts of Organic Chemistry including qualitative analysis of organic compounds, spectrometric methods, and practical applications. IR, UV, NMR and Mass Spectrometry techniques are explained with examples. The subject matter also includes chapters on organic compound preparation and derivative preparations.
Aimed at undergraduate and post-graduate students and aligned with the curricula across universities, this book details the fundamental concepts in Organic Chemistry, including
- Qualitative analysis of organic compounds: Methods for identifying single compounds and mixtures, with detailed explanations of tests, derivative preparations, and spot tests for functional groups and elements are discussed. Microwave-assisted synthesis is also included.
- Spectrometric methods: Techniques like IR, UV, NMR, and Mass Spectrometry are explained with practical examples for the analysis of compound structures and applications of these techniques.
- Practical applications: Chapters on organic compound preparation, natural product isolation, quantitative estimations, and chromatographic techniques for purification are included.
The subject matter of this book also includes self-assessment questions for enhanced understanding and practice.
