Organic Chemistry (7th Edition) - Robert Thornton Morrison

In the time since the sixth edition of this best seller by Morrison and Boyd was published in 1992, organic chemistry has witnessed a metamorphosis, both in the methods of synthesis and in the analysis of organic compounds. This seventh edition is revised as per the developments that have taken place in the field of organic chemistry as well as in the syllabi. As in the earlier editions, the book conveys the important fundamentals and principles of the subject in a simple and easily understandable manner. Indispensable for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of chemistry, the book is also useful to the students preparing for competitive examinations such as IIT-JEE, AIEEE, and medical/engineering entrance examinations both at the national and state level.
