Synopsis

Designed to supplement standard organic chemistry textbooks used in two-semester courses, Problems Book for Organic Chemistry is a practical and highly applicable study aid that increases students' problem-solving abilities and effectively prepares them for exams.

The book challenges students to participate in a series of timed examinations, replicating the real conditions under which exams are generally given to effectively prepare students to problem-solve under pressure. After completing each exam, students are provided with detailed answers and encouraged to self-grade their work to better understand their individual mastery of the material. The concepts in each exam, as well as their order, mirror the progression of a standard two-semester organic chemistry course.

Innovative in approach, Problems Book for Organic Chemistry is an ideal resource for students enrolled in organic chemistry courses.

Robert Engel holds a Ph.D. in chemistry from Pennsylvania State University. A professor at Queens College, his lab work focuses on the synthesis of organic salts for applications to physical and biological systems.

JaimeLee Iolani Rizzo earned her Ph.D. at the CUNY Graduate School and University Center. A professor at Pace University, her research addresses the synthesis of antimicrobial surfaces, an area in which she holds numerous patents.

A. David Baker is an emeritus professor of organic chemistry at Queens College. Having published extensively on ultraviolet and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and in heterocyclic chemistry, he is currently working on the use of density functional theory and other computational methods to probe the structures and stabilities of nanostructures.
