Which Advanced Organic Chemistry book is more receptive for undergraduate student, March or Carey/Sundberg?

March is excellent but very dense - it is not as engaging as Carey & Sundberg and can be overwhelming, but is a very useful book to have on the shelf as you become more proficient in the subject. It is better as a reference text than a learning text in my opinion.

I don't recommend March as a main text for 1st year undergrads, but do for 2nd year and beyond. For 1st year I would go with something more engaging to ease you in - like Carey and Sundberg or Clayden, etc.

I am about to finish Clayden, so I will read Carey & Sundberg next. But the MO theory seems to be very deeply examine in that book. Do I need to read first a book in that filed to understand Carey & Sundberg?

can you suggest any book for practical organic chemistry, notably for choosing of solvents for synthesis, TLC, etc. everything about practical organic chemistry

[CrazyAssasin]

The one I know is Vogel's practical organic chemistry

hi all
I'm seeking a simple,comprehensive and brief book for isolation of organic compounds for under graduate students, can you introduce me any?
thanks for your help

[ABA2015]

I would be grateful if suggest me a book for identification of organic comp. with classification tests.
thanks

Sometimes they have used ones. much cheaper.

From times to times check: http://www.betterworldbooks.com/ - sometimes used books cost there 3-5 $ (with free shipping worldwide) - filter: used and bargain bin.

Organic Chemistry as a Second Language: First Semester Topics
David R. Klein (Author)
This book has used a very systematic and simple approach for learning chemistry .I have found book more concise and easy to make my students understand even difficult topic of organic chemistry.

Guys is there a big difference between newer versions of the same book? I mean the price difference is sometimes close to 100$.. For example March´s 5ed is for 20 but the 7th is close to 100

[Rutherford]

After Clayden, should I continue with the series S.Warren: Disconnection approach and then Strategy & Control or Carey, Sundberg Advanced OC?

Where to find the solutions for Advanced Organic Chemistry by Carey,Sundberg. In the book it is said: A new
feature is solutions to these problems, which are also provided at the publisher’s
website at springer.com/carey-sundberg
The website is complicated: http://www.springer.com/carey-sundberg/TOC/?referer=springer.com. Where are the solutions?

Hi guys, anyone read the Handbook of heterocyclic chemistry by Zhdankin? Im considering getting one from amazon because it is recomended book for my course and the price if affordable (aprox 30-40 bucks for used one) so Im looking for any reviews on this piece..
