About the book

"This companion volume to Primer, Foundations of Organic Chemistry, by the same authors, provides worked solutions to problems which will challenge and support advanced school students and students beginning university courses in chemistry and biochemisty. The first six chapters follow the same chapter headings as before, making it easy for students to use the books together. The final chapter contains synoptic problems." "Throughout, the problems challenge students to apply their chemical knowledge in familiar and unfamiliar situations in order to consolidate their understanding and sustain interest, whilst developing their problem-solving skills. Marginal hints lead the students into the questions in a tutorial manner, and the brief answers are accompanied by full explanations."--Jacket.
