This Coursebook will guide you through all fundamental reaction mechanisms that you need to learn in Basic Organic Chemistry with illustrated examples that explain step by step every mechanism taking into account the stereochemistry and regiochemistry of every reaction.

Topics included are:
Types of solvents.
Stability of carbocation, free-radical carbon, carbanion, and carbene.
Nucleophiles, nucleofuges, electrophiles, and electrofuges.
Free-radical-substitution reactions of alkanes, allylic and benzylic compounds.
Aliphatic and aromatic nucleophilic substitution reactions: SN1, SN1cA, SN1’, SN2, SN2’, SNAr, SN1 Ar, and SAR2.
Electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions.
Elimination reactions: a-elimination, E1, E1cB, E2.
Addition reactions: nucleophilic, electrophilic, concerted, and free radical.
Oxidation of functional groups.
Reduction of functional groups.
A selection of common named reactions: Grignard reaction, Aldol reaction, Michael addition, Knoevenagel condensation, Claisen condensation, Robinson annulation, Diels-Elder reaction, Beckman rearrangement, Wittig reaction, Wurtz-Fittig reaction.
