Summary:

About the Book: The course content has been completely revised and updated in such a manner so as to be in consonance with syllabus proposed by the U.G.C. Curriculum Development Committee for chemistry. The course material of B.Sc. Part I is reflected in eleven chapters of the present volume. A few salient features of this volume are: review of the important points is presented after every chapter, mechanisms of all the reactions described in the text are illustrated and finally the subject matter on chemical bonding, stereochemistry and principles of reaction mechanism has been reoriented. Contents: Structure and Bonding General Principles of Organic Reaction Mechanism Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds Alkanes and Cycloalkanes-1(Alkanes) Cycloalkanes Alkenes Cycloalkenes, Dienes and Alkynes Arenes-I, Benzene and Aromaticity Arenes-II Alkyl and Aryl Halides Organometallic Compounds
