Description for Theoretical and Physical Principles of Organic Reactivity
Hardcover. This approach to the general problem of organic reactivity combines classical organic chemistry with new theoretical ideas developed by the author. The text contains a non-mathematical description of the curve crossing model, expressed in the language of qualitative valence bond theory. Num Pages: 312 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PNN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 241 x 168 x 23. Weight in Grams: 602.
Traditionally, physical organic chemistry and theoretical organicchemistry have been treated as separate disciplines. This new bookbridges these two areas in order to give the reader a newperspective on the nature of organic reactivity. A key element ofthis new approach is the author's extensive nonmathematicaldescription of the recently developed curve-crossing model thatdescribes why chemical reactions have an activation barrier, andspecifies the factors that govern the barrier heights. In addition,the author draws from physical chemistry and transition-metalchemistry to present an original and detailed description ofelectron transfer theory, and covers the recent discovery that theelectron transfer process is intimately related to many basicorganic ...
