Part One explores the structure of organic compounds, providing the necessary background for understanding mechanisms. Part Two discusses reactions and mechanisms. Organized by reaction type, each of these chapters discusses the basic mechanisms along with reactivity and orientation as well as the scope and mechanisms of each reaction.
