Heterocyclic chemistry is a central part of organic chemistry
and biochemistry, dealing with a particular set of chemical
structures; organic compounds with a ring structure containing at
least one heteroatom (commonly nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur).
"Heterocyclic Chemistry at a Glance, Second Edition" provides
both an introduction and summary of the main principles and
reactions of heterocyclic chemistry, for students studying
chemistry and related courses at undergraduate level.
This second edition has been much expanded, allowing for a more
thorough treatment of key principles and the inclusion of extra
examples and illustrations, including heterocycles used in
electronics, explosives, polymers, dyestuffs, pigments and that
occur in food. All chapters have been revised and updated,
including references to books and reviews, and student exercises,
with answers on line at "http: //booksupport.wiley.com." New to
this edition is the use of colour in schemes and diagrams
highlighting parts of products (or intermediates) where a change in
structure or bonding has taken place.
Based on the highly successful and student-friendly "at a
glance" approach, the material developed in this book has been
chosen to help the student grasp the essence of heterocyclic
chemistry, ensuring that they can confidently use that knowledge
when required. The structure of the book allows for quick
assimilation, understanding and recall of key concepts, facts and
definitions, providing an invaluable aid to revision for students
preparing for examinations.
Reviews for the first edition:
"This book can be recommended to students looking for a textbook
on heterocyclic chemistry. The organization of the material is
oriented towards the needs of undergraduate students, but
nevertheless the book is comprehensive and will also be of value
for more advanced readers."" Heterocycles""Joule and Mills have
succeeded here in condensing the essence of introductory
undergraduate heterocyclic chemistry into a slim volume, presented
(as is the way in this series) in an A4 page format and in a very
easy-to-grasp style with many structures and reactions. All of the
key areas are covered." "Chemistry World"
