Comperhensive Approach to Practical Organic Chemistry: (Qualitative Analysis, Synthesis and UV, IR, NMR & MS Spectral Identification). This item is unavailable.Comperhensive Approach to Practical Organic Chemistry: (Qualitative Analysis, Synthesis and UV, IR, NMR & MS Spectral Identification)

Practical organic chemistry is an essential part of the course syllabus in UG and PG MSc Chemistry in many universities and colleges.

There have been few comprehensive practical organic chemistry books in the market, including well-known books such as Vogel's, Mann and Saunders, and many others, despite the increasing interest of organic chemists, biochemists, pharmaceutical specialists, and medicinal chemists. Most of the books that appear have been short ones except for a few exceptions, either specialised or aimed at the advanced level for undergraduates.

The book is comprehensive and includes a mechanistic approach to synthetic compounds and the identification of organic molecules through spectroscopy, which added an advantage for teachers and students. The author is well qualified for the task, having 40 years of teaching and research experience.

This book covers the entire area of practical organic chemistry, including synthesis, mechanism, isolation of natural products, separation techniques, and especially identification of spectral analysis of organic compounds and their properties.

Graduate students and others interested in learning praticals beyond what they find in other textbooks will greet this book with applause.
