Since its original appearance in 1977, Advanced Organic Chemistry
has maintained its place as the premier textbook in the field,
offering broad coverage of the structure, reactivity and synthesis
of organic compounds. As in the earlier editions, the text contains
extensive references to both the primary and review literature and
provides examples of data and reactions that illustrate and
document the generalizations. While the text assumes completion of
an introductory course in organic chemistry, it reviews the
fundamental concepts for each topic that is discussed.
The two-part fifth edition has been substantially revised and
reorganized for greater clarity. Among the changes: Updated
material reflecting advances in the field since 2001 s Fourth
Edition, especially in computational chemistry; A companion Web
site provides digital models for study of structure, reaction and
selectivity; Solutions to the exercises provided to instructors
online.
The control of reactivity to achieve specific syntheses is one of
the overarching goals of organic chemistry. Part B describes the
most general and useful synthetic reactions, organized on the basis
of reaction type. Together with Part A: Structure and Mechanisms,
the two volumes are intended to provide the advanced undergraduate
or beginning graduate student in chemistry with a sufficient
foundation to comprehend and use the research literature in organic
chemistry.

From the reviews of the fifth edition: "Advanced Organic Chemistry ... the well-known textbook for graduate students - has now appeared in a 5th edition. ... Carey & Sundberg will be interesting to all students who seek a detailed understanding of organic chemistry, and who wish to refresh and embellish their existing knowledge. On the strength of the scope and quality of the explanations, this pair of texts is recommended for use as the resource of first resort for specific research questions in one's later career."
