Organic Chemistry 311 Lecture Notes

Have you ever wondered what’s inside your Organic Chemistry Professor’s notebook? Did you wish you had the entire semester’s content before class has even started? Or are you the professor and need all your lectures, a daily teaching schedule, and syllabus prepared in advance for you? Here is your chance! A few years ago, Glenn Phillips, Ph.D transcribed the entire year’s curriculum for Organic Chemistry into two booklets. These booklets are a legible copy of the Lecture Notes he used while a Professor of Chemistry at a small Christian Liberal Arts University, a Community College and a State University. Topics in this book include nomenclature of organic compounds; structure and reactivity of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, ethers, alcohols and alkyl halides; stereochemistry; nucleophilic substitution and β-elimination. These concise books of less than 100 pages really make the concepts come alive using "student-friendly" terminology and relevant examples. The thirty lectures are dissected in such a way that it promotes the progressive understanding of the topics. A sample syllabus, interactive problems and a sample grade book are provided for you to keep track of your progress. In 2021 Dr. Phillips' books continue to be requested by students who need a quick but thorough understanding on the topics in Organic Chemistry.
