NAMED ORGANIC REACTIONS: SELF TEST

NAMED ORGANIC REACTIONS: SELF TEST

Several reactions in organic chemistry are more often known in the name of the discoverer of the reaction and therefore, they are referred to as ‘Named Organic Reactions’. These reactions find applications in the synthesis of many organic products of various industries engaged in producing textile products, pharmaceutical intermediates, polymeric materials, etc. Besides, these named reactions are also quite interesting and useful for students preparing for their university examinations at both the under graduate and post graduate levels in organic chemistry as well as for those appearing for many competitive examinations. This book is aimed at to help such students preparing for all kinds of examinations . The ultimate use of this book is not to teach these reactions in detail in any course but to help students who have already undergone a regular organic chemistry course and looking up to just check for themselves and revise their memory about these reactions. At this point I would also like to mention that this book is far from exhaustive compilation as there are many many such named reactions are available in the realm of organic chemistry. However, I am of sincere opinion that the material presented and the format of presentation, viz: ‘match-the-following’, would kindle interest among both the students and teachers to use this book as a tool for revision.
