Features: This book is organized according to the functional group system, combining aliphatic and aromatic compounds. However, compared to the previous edition, the chapters and content have been adjusted, updated, or rewritten. The book consists of eighteen chapters, including alkanes, cycloalkanes, alkenes, dienes, alkynes, arenes, enantiomers, halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols and phenols, ethers and epoxides, aldehydes, ketones, and quinones, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid derivatives, nitrogen-containing compounds, heterocyclic compounds, carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins, and nucleic acids. While ensuring the fundamental concepts, knowledge, and theories, the book strives to connect theory with practice and incorporates some recent developments in organic chemistry and related disciplines. Each chapter still includes thought-provoking questions and exercises, with examples provided before each set of exercises as a reference for solving problems. The examples in the book cover most of the types of exercises. Additionally, the book is accompanied by a "Teaching Assistant and Self-Learning" CD-ROM to enhance readers' understanding of the course content. This book can be used as a textbook for undergraduate and junior college students in chemical engineering and chemistry programs, as well as for short-hour organic chemistry courses. It is also suitable as a teaching material or reference book for other institutions (universities) and vocational colleges in related fields, as well as for reference use by scientific and technical personnel.
