ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Principles of Molecular Photochemistry: An Introduction
Nicholas J. turro, Columbia University, USA, V. Ramamurthy, University of Miami, USA and J. C. Scaiano, University of Ottawa, Canada
Published by University Science Books
‘An excellent introduction written by three supreme masters in this their field...’ - Chemistry World
This text develops photochemical and photophysical concepts from a small set of familiar principles. Developed from Nick Turro’s long best-selling text - Modern Molecular Photochemistry - this updated primer introduces an initial paradigm that relates the photon and a reactant molecular structure to photochemistry through the structure and dynamics of electronically excited states, reactive intermediates and products. The same paradigm is readily adapted to incorporate the photon and a reactant molecular structure to photophysics. The book provides brilliantly clear descriptions in pictorial terms that can be readily understood by the student.
Contents: Molecular Photochemistry of Organic Compounds: An Overview / Electronic, Vibrational, and Spin Configurations of Electronically Excited States / Transitions between States: Photophysical Processes / Radiative Transitions between Electronic States / Photophysical Radiationless Transitions / A Theory of Molecular Organic Photochemistry / Energy Transfer and Electron Transfer / Index

Supplement
A comprehensive rewriting of Turro’s classic text, Modern Molecular Photochemistry, this is a crystal-clear introduction to organic photochemistry as it is now, conveyed in pictorial terms. It comprises the same introductory chapters that make up Turro’s Principles book before moving on to new material. The authors describe the basic functional groups of organic chemistry and explain the methods for determining what is at work in different organic photoreactions. Special topic chapters address supramolecule organic photochemistry - the first treatment of its kind - and the role of triplet and singlet molecular oxygen in organic photochemistry.

Quantum Chemistry 2nd edition
donald A. McQuarrie, formerly University of California, USA
Published by University Science Books
‘Highly recommended.’ - Choice: Current Reviews for Academic Libraries
Don McQuarrie has updated his landmark Quantum Chemistry. In response to the proliferation of
computational chemistry software, this second edition features step-by-step SCF calculations of a helium atom and a hydrogen molecule, as well as an entire chapter on the Hartree-Fock method and post-Hartree-Fock methods for the calculation of molecular properties. The book also uses problems to encourage the use of an invaluable National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) website that lists experimental data and the results of various ab initio calculations for hundreds of molecules. New mathematics chapters placed throughout the book help students focus on the physical principles being explained. As with the first edition, the book assumes a prerequisite of one year of calculus with no required knowledge of differential equations.

Published by University Science Books
This book is ideal for use in one-semester introductory courses within life sciences. The emphasis is on helping students to gain a solid understanding of physical concepts, rather than focusing on precise mathematical
development or experimental details. Assuming only basic skills of differential and integral calculus, and providing end-of-chapter problems with both physiochemical and biological applications, it is an accessible and useful guide to the subject.

Physical Chemistry for the Chemical and Biological Sciences
Raymond Chang, Williams College, USA
Published by University Science Books
‘This book offers an alternative approach to physical chemistry that is particularly well suited for those who want to pursue a course of study more focused on the biological sciences.’ - Journal of Chemical Education
‘I have found Ray Chang’s P Chem book to be the ideal textbook for students from the life sciences. Whereas so many other textbooks seem to be written for the instructor, this text works well with students who have traditionally struggled with this course.’ - George Bodner, Purdue University, USA
Hailed by advance reviewers as ‘a kinder, gentler P. Chem. text,’ this book meets the needs of a full-year course in physical chemistry. It is an ideal choice for classes geared toward pre-medical and life sciences students. It offers a wealth of applications to chemical and biological problems, numerous chapter-ending exercises, and an accompanying solutions manual. Well known for his clear writing and careful pedagogical approach, Raymond Chang has developed yet another masterpiece in chemical education.
