With authors who are both accomplished researchers and educators, Vollhardt and Schore's Organic Chemistry takes a functional group approach with a heavy emphasis on understanding how the structure of a molecule determines how that molecule will function in chemical reactions. By understanding the connection between structure and function, students will be better prepared to understand mechanisms and solve practical problems in organic chemistry. The new edition brings in the latest research breakthroughs and applications, expanded problem-solving help, and new online homework options.

In this textbook, Organic Chemistry: Structure and Function, we present a logical framework
for understanding contemporary organic chemistry. This framework emphasizes that the
structure of an organic molecule determines how that molecule functions, be it with respect to
its physical behavior or in a chemical reaction. In the seventh edition, we have strengthened
the themes of understanding reactivity, mechanisms, and synthetic analysis to apply chemical
concepts to realistic situations. We have incorporated new applications of organic chemistry
in the life and material sciences. In particular, we have introduced some of the fundamentals
of medicinal chemistry in over 70 new entries describing drug design, absorption, metabolism,
mode of action, and medicinal terminology. We have expanded on improving students’
ability to grasp concepts in a number of sections (“Keys to Success”) and on their problemsolving
skills by presenting step-by-step guides in Worked Examples. These and other
innovations are illustrated in the following pages. Organic Chemistry: Structure and Function
is offered in an online version to give students cost-effective access to all content from the
text plus all student media resources
