in important branches of science. The Facts on File Dictionary of Organic
Chemistry has been designed as an additional source of information for students
taking Advanced Placement (AP) Science courses in high schools. It
will also be helpful to older students taking introductory college courses.
This volume covers organic chemistry and includes basic concepts, classes of
compound, reaction mechanisms, and important named organic compounds.
In addition, we have included a number of compounds that are important
in biochemistry, as well as information on certain key biochemical
pathways. The definitions are intended to be clear and informative and,
where possible, we have illustrations of chemical structures. The book also
has a selection of short biographical entries for people who have made important
contributions to the field. There are a number of appendixes, including
structural information on carboxylic acids, amino acids, sugars, and
nitrogenous bases and nucleosides. There is also a list of all the chemical elements
and a periodic table. The appendixes also include a short list of useful
webpages and a bibliography.
The book will be a helpful additional source of information for anyone
studying the AP Chemistry course, especially the section on Descriptive
Chemistry. It will also be useful to students of AP Biology.
