In chemistry, good problem-solving requires a balanced combination of scientific intuition and methodical analysis. Additionally, thoughtfully presented diagrams and infographics can convey a large amount of complex information in a more intuitive and accessible manner. 100 Must-Know Mechanisms (Second Edition) strives to be at the intersection of these two key principles. Its thorough visualizations enable experienced readers to use it as a quick reference for specific mechanisms of interest. At the same time, the book’s breadth of covered reactions, from classic to cutting-edge, make it a good study-aid for the developing chemist. A slow and consistent study of the entire series of mechanisms can help set the foundation for good scientific intuition, while its detailed infographics and careful navigation features encourage coming back to it frequently. This edition includes over 40 new illustrations, numerous new mechanistic schemes, enhanced original figures with a variety of real-case examples, and more. New in this edition: Dot structure added for most mechanisms. Selected mechanisms accompanied by specific examples with step-by-step explanation using Lewis dot structures. Name reactions accompanied by additional detailed mechanisms.
