Organic synthesis is concerned with the construction of organic compounds via organic reactions. The synthesis of organic compounds has developed into one of the most important branches of organic chemistry. The first ten chapters emphasizes the principles of carbon-carbon bond formation and carbon-heteroatom bond formation, the carbon-carbon bond formation via the reaction of organometallic compounds, stabilized carbanions and related nucleophiles, ring closure/ring opening, reduction, oxidation, and protective group. The remaining four chapters focus on boron, phosphorus, silicon and selenium reagents. The last two chapters discuss asymmetric synthesis and selected syntheses.
Chemistry
“化学”一词，若单从字面解释就是“变化的学问”之意。化学是一门研究物质的性质、组成、结构、以及变化规律的基础自然科学。化学研究的对象涉及物质之间的相互关系，或物质和能量之间的关联。传统的化学常常都是关于两种物质接触、变化，即化学反应，又或者是一种物质变成另一种物质的过程。
