Organic Chemistry

The Ninth Edition of Organic Chemistry continues Solomons-Fryhle's tradition of excellence in teaching and preparing students for success in the organic classroom and beyond. Students are often overwhelmed by the early rigors of organic chemistry. Solomons-Fryhle prepares students for these early rigors by introducing acids & bases--topics they know from general chemistry--early, followed by chapters on structure and stereochemistry. Next, a discussion of ionic reactions gives students a foundation for the vast majority of reactions that they will encounter. The Ninth Edition continues to introduce IR spectroscopy in chapter 2 (after functional groups) and Carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy in chapter 4, providing synergy with most lab courses and, again, reinforcing learning. The new edition of Solomons-Fryhle also has a completely revised WileyPLUS course to help students and instructors reach their full potential. WileyPLUS provides instructors with the most robust online homework solution in organic chemistry. This revision of WileyPLUS meets students where and when they learn and provides them with a learning platform that offers real learning solutions that complement their approach to managing and mastering organic concepts.

Riddled with errors that actually teach the wrong material, but if you are made aware of these and avoid them then the book is fine.

Clear descriptions and mechanisms (multi-coloured) help with studying.
Recommended over my other Organic textbook (which sucks big ones).

This textbook was an amazing follow up read to a honors chemistry textbook such as Chemistry by Stephen Zumdahl. With that context in mind, I really loved reading this textbook and thoroughly exploring the complex subject of organic chemistry. The book covers everything from the basics of organic chemistry to the most complicated, intricate topics such as the biological applications of such organic chemistry. The book includes diagrams, charts, tables, is arranged in an aesthetically pleasing way, and the writing style is fluid and relatively to read. Being easy to read was a huge plus for this textbook; being interested in the material is not easy if it is a struggle to read the text. Having said this, the only complaint I have with this textbook is that it does require quite a lot of previous knowledge. This makes sense, as the subject is an advanced level of chemistry, but it does make this book not suitable for most people.

Im good at Chem, but I just hate it so much, I didn't work at my ap chemistry course for a whole semester and bought this book to study a week before the test and I got an awesome grade, it focuses more on different types of reactions and it's not that dense.

it's better to actually read than to carry all over campus for a year and counting...
