Electron Flow in Organic Chemistry takes a decision-based approach to developing chemical intuition through a crosschecked analysis process. Designed for students with a general background in chemistry, this acclaimed textbook teaches how to construct reasonable reaction mechanisms and apply analytical tools to solve both fundamental and advanced problems in organic chemistry.

The third edition introduces entirely new chapters on crosschecking chemical reactions through mechanistic reasoning and solving spectral analysis problems using organic structure elucidation strategies.

It also includes additional biochemical reaction mechanism examples, expanded exercises with answers, a deeper discussion of how general chemistry principles reveal the relationship between structure and reactivity, and a new appendix covering transition metal organometallics. Prioritizing critical thinking over memorization, this widely used textbook:

  • Features new and expanded content, including additional flowcharts, correlation matrices, energy surfaces, and decision-making algorithms
  • Incorporates examples from biochemistry, making it relevant to students in chemistry, biology, and medicine
  • Integrates principles from computer science and artificial intelligence to teach problem-solving strategies
  • Provides quick-reference charts, pathway summaries, a major decisions guide, and a comprehensive bibliography
  • Offers extensive instructor materials, including a solutions manual, supplemental exercises with detailed answers for exam preparation, and additional online resources

Electron Flow in Organic Chemistry: A Decision-Based Guide to Organic Mechanisms, Third Edition is an ideal primary textbook for advanced undergraduate and introductory graduate courses in organic reaction mechanisms.

Besides the usual clarifications and modifications necessary to bring the text up to date, the text has been expanded to reinforce a decision-based approach. There are more flowcharts, correlation matrices, and algorithms that illustrate decision processes.

Energy surfaces, normally the domain of graduate texts, serve as concept maps and allow students to visualize alternative routes.

All curly electron flow arrows are now in red to make those arrows stand out from the drawn structures. Color is also used to highlight and focus the reader’s attention on parts of the molecule when deciding what parts have changed and to illustrate viable routes on the energy surfaces.

The text has been made more accessible to beginning students by adding more background discussion of how General Chemistry concepts can be used to show that structure determines reactivity. Proton transfer mechanisms and predictions of acid base reactions are introduced early, in Chapter 3, setting up the discussion of organic reactions.

To increase readability, all frontier molecular orbital theory reactivity explanations have been moved much later, to Chapter 13, “Qualitative Molecular Orbital Theory and Pericyclic Reactions.”
