Organic Reactivity provides a timely account of the current state of research at the interface between physical organic and bio-organic chemistry. It bridges the gap between physical and biological aspects of organic chemistry, introducing physical organic chemists to new mechanistic problems in biology, and encouraging a more rigorous mechanistic approach in bio-organic chemists. It demonstrates the relevance of new thinking in physical organic chemistry to bio-organic chemists, drawing upon a variety of current mechanistic themes. Organic Reactivity is an extremely important source book for lecturers keen to steer students towards highly relevant, contemporary research, and to show where different areas of chemistry, often perceived as exclusive, interlink and have common principles. It also provides laboratory chemists with pointers to new directions in research.
