for Organic Chemistry Lab Techniques
Anne B. Padías, The University of Arizona
ISBN: 978-0-7380-4135-3
Net Price: $25.00
In this second edition of the popular text, Dr. Padías has enhanced existing content to address additional topic areas including 13C NMR, green chemistry, and molecular modeling. She has also introduced end of the chapter/supplementary problems as well as a periodic table for reference. A clear, concise writing style remains a hallmark of the second edition.
Through its precise presentation and practical approach, Making the Connections2 not only helps increase comprehension of the basic tenets but ignites a true
interest in organic techniques by offering many every-day examples of the chemical principles used in the lab. MTC2 offers students an affordable alternative to comparative techniques guides. It presents modern instrumentation techniques across various scales; universally suited as a supplement to any organic chemistry and lab curriculum.
