    This document is a preface to an organic chemistry problem book. It explains that mastering organic chemistry requires both memorization of facts as well as the ability to apply those facts to solve problems. It aims to provide additional practice problems and solutions to help students develop an intuitive understanding of organic chemistry and gain predictive problem solving abilities. The book contains chapters organized by functional groups and reaction types that are designed to build upon each other and reinforce concepts from earlier chapters. It is meant to complement common organic chemistry textbooks by following a standard conceptual sequence.

    PREFACE

    Organic Chemistry is understood by reading the textbook, listening to lectures and memorizing name reactions with
    reagents. But perhaps most importantly, it is learnt by doing, that is, solving problems. It is not uncommon for students
    who have performed below expectation in JEE to explain that they honestly thought they understood the text and lectures.
    The difficulty, however, lies in applying, generalizing, and extending the specific reactions and mechanisms they have
    “memorized” to the solution of a very broad array of related problems. In doing so, students will begin to “internalize”
    Organic Chemistry to develop an intuitive feel for, and appreciation of, the underlying logic of the subject. Acquiring that
    level of skill requires but goes far beyond rote learning. It is the ultimate process by which one learns to manipulate the
    myriad of reactions and, in time, gains a predictive power that will facilitate solving new problems.
    Mastering Organic Chemistry is challenging. It demands memorization, but then requires application of those facts to
    solve real problems. It features a highly logical structural hierarchy and builds upon a cumulative learning process. The
    requisite investment in time and effort, however, can lead to the development of a sense of self-confidence in the subject,
    an intellectually satisfying experience, indeed.
    Many excellent textbooks are available to explain the theory of Organic Chemistry; all provide extensive exercises.
    Better performing students, however, consistently ask for additional exercises. It is the purpose of this book, then, to
    provide supplementary problems and their solutions that reinforce and extend those textbook exercises.
    This book has reached its destination in five years; three years used in collection of problems chapter-wise and two
    years for correction/eliminating errors. I have designed this book in such a manner that it will be useful for JEE aspiring
    students. If you go through previous years’ JEE problems, you will find that objective type questions have subjective
    nature, that is why it was decided to write an objective pattern book in a subjective way. The beauty of this book is in the
    solutions, which are at par with international level treatment. Each and every question has detailed solution with reaction
    sequence, bond cleavage and formation of products. The book has separate chapters for Substitution and Elimination
    reaction and Carbonyl alpha-Substitution and Carbonyl Condensation reactions, because JEE has always been framing
    problems from these chapters.
    Arrangement is according to classical functional group organization, with each group typically divided into Reactions,
    Conversions and Mechanisms. To emphasize the vertical integration of the subject, problems in later chapters heavily
    draw upon and integrate reactions learned in earlier chapters.
    It is desirable, but impossible, to write a problem book that is completely text-independent. Most problems will follow
    a similar developmental sequence, progressing from alkane/alkene/alkyne to aromatic to aldehyde/ketone to carboxylic
    acid to enol/enolate to amine chemistry. But within the earlier domains, placement of the basics, stereochemistry, SN/E
    mechanisms, and other functional groups varies considerably. The sequence is important because it establishes the
    concepts and reactions that can be utilized in subsequent problems. It is the intent of this problem book to follow a
    consensus sequence that complements a broad array of Organic Chemistry textbooks. Consequently, instructors utilizing
    a specific textbook may on some occasion offer their students guidance on the corresponding problem book chapter and
    select problems for practice.
