Pleased.......2007-09-27
The book arrived on time and in the condition indicated. Pleasure to do business with.
eh.......2007-08-31
i always thought this book was overrated. it's just not a text you can sit down, relax, and enjoy. it's definitely a reference text, and for a reference text, it's definitely not the first one I go to.
6th March is an excellent buy.......2007-08-08
It is very difficult to rewrite reviews for 6th edition of the "March". Classical flagships among textbooks and reference books in organic chemistry, unbeatable. With 7000 new refernces it brings unbelievable 25k reference citations, very well organized on the bottom of the pages. Excellent indexes, very good cross view between 5th edition and 6th edition aligning chapters of different numbering, perfect drawings made in CamSoft ChemDraw, etc. etc. As the text and accompanying material is polished and polished edition to edition, it is very difficult to do anything else but to praise this excellent reference book, which hardly could be omitted in any chemical laboratory. Not only that but hardcover book of 2357 pages for $73 at Amazon is not only a good book but also a good buy.
very fast shipping and very good conditions of the book.......2007-05-13
very fast shipping and very good conditions of the book
Good oganic chemistry.......2007-03-22
As for the 5th edition this new one is really clear and fully of bibliografic reference. I really appreciate that, now, the references are below at the page and not at the end of the chapter, form me this change help to finding the information. I think that this is one of the most complete book for the organic chemist.
Book Description
From the reviews of the Fourth Edition ...
"March has been uncompromising in his search for clarity and utility in presentations of a wide variety of essential organic chemistry. It remains an accessible and useful tool for both specialists and nonspecialists in the field. It does an excellent job both as a text for first-year graduate students and a handy reference for others."-Journal of Chemical Education
"The ratio of information to price makes this book a wonderful bargain."-American Scientist

Nice book, for sure.......2006-11-06
I'm pretty sure that you _must_ have this book if you are studying advanced organic chemistry. Maybe it's not the best one to use as a study guide, but it's extremely helpful as a reference book both for undergrads and graduate students. However, one can argue that this edition is a bit out-of-date.
The Best Reference for Organic Chemistry.......2005-10-09
This is by far the best text I have found. Although it is considered a text book, it is more handy as a reference tool. I have seen no other book that contains more information than March's. This book is actually worth the price.
An investment that'll last you for years........2004-09-04
I bought a copy of this text (2nd Ed) after finishing my sophomore year of college, and it proved to be the best single investment I've ever made in chemistry. I used it so often, I had to duct-tape the book together.
I think the happiest moment of my career was when my name appeared in the index of a later edition. Anyway, buy it and treasure it.
The Green Bible of Organic Chemistry.......2004-08-15
March never leaves my desk. It covers everything. From functional group transformations to mechanisms to FMO theory - you name it it's there. Highly recommended for any advanced undergraduate, graduate or post-doctoral researcher. It's a bookshelf staple that any organic chemist should have available.
1495 Page Bible Of General Reactions And Mechanisms.......2004-02-09
I paid more for my 4th ed. new, and find it to be worth even more. It is not a cookbook per se, but it is a very comprehensive textbook that details general reactions by functional group. It outlines every way known to remove, add to, or otherwise modify every functional group. There is as much commentary as is needed, if not more, and every pathway is mentioned regardless of how exotic or primitive and low-yielding. The corresponding OS synth refs for specific cpds. are given for each type of reaction, along with a total of 15,000 other refs in footnotes. This was cutting-edge in 92, with much updating of the 3rd ed. The index will take you to the section that shows how to make the manipulations you want - if it doesn't, it probably can't be done.
Book Description
Writing Reaction Mechanisms in Organic Chemistry, Second Edition, is an invaluable guide to charting the movements of atoms and electrons in the reactions of organic molecules. Miller and Solomon illustrate that understanding organic reactions is based on applying general principles rather than the rote memorization of unrelated processes, and, in turn, emphasize that writing mechanisms is a practical method of applying knowledge of previously encountered reactions and reaction conditions to new reactions. Students and research chemists alike will find this book useful in providing a method of organizing and synthesizing an oftentimes overwhelming quantity of information into a set of general principles and guidelines for determining and describing organic reaction mechanisms.
* Essential for those students who need to have mechanisms explained in greater detail than most organic chemistry textbooks provide.
* Illustrated with hundreds of chemical structures
* Extensively rewritten and reorganized to make the presentation and format even easier for students to use
* Contains many problem sets and answers to all problems to help students work through general principles and applications
* Appendixes have been added to this edition that contain easily referenced information on Lewis structures, symbols for chemical notation, and the relative acidities of common substances

A big step towards the understanding of organic chemistry.......2000-02-04
This book is made for those who think that Organic Chemistry is just a succession of empirical reactions. If you have problems memorizing your Organic course this book should help a lot. All along the text you will learn how to derive a plausible mechanism for a given reaction. Miller did a great job in demonstrating that there is logic in Organic Chemistry. Moreover the book provides solid tools for those who plan to move towards more advanced concepts. This second edition displays a much improved presentation. A must, affordable, simple and efficient.
Book Description
A best-selling mechanistic organic chemistry text in Germany, this text's translation into English fills a long-existing need for a modern, thorough and accessible treatment of reaction mechanisms for students of organic chemistry at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level. Knowledge of reaction mechanisms is essential to all applied areas of organic chemistry; this text fulfills that need by presenting the right material at the right level.
Book Description
This teaching book covers many types of reactions, organic compounds and mechanisms that are often neglected in most introductory Organic Chemistry courses. Rather than reviewing topics discussed in introductory courses or attempting to cover all aspects of organic chemistry, Miller methodically guides readers through more advanced topics to pique and retain interest and make essential principles and practices accessible to all.
Customer Reviews:
Intermediate Organic Chemistry.......2000-08-15
I found this book very helpful and useful before I started my graduate studies in chemistry. It serves to fill the gap bewteen materials covered in a regular 1-year organic chemistry sequence and the graduate-level courses. I took an advanced organic course in undergraduate and Sundberg/Carrey's Advanced Organic Chemistry was chosen as the text. Mr Miller's treatment of advanced topics like electricylic reactions, cycloaddition reactions, sigmatrophic reactions, linear free energy relationships, etc are very clear and easy-to-follow. If you find other advanced texts complicated to read, you might want to pick up a copy of Mr Miller's text.
Great for potential grad students.......1999-09-04
I took a physical organic chemistry course as an undergrad and we used this book. It offers a simple but helpful approach to mechanisms which are not normally covered in a year-long organic chemistry course. If you love o.chem but aren't sure if you want to go on to grad school, this book can change your mind. It simplifies and pulls together some of the more complex parts of o.chem.
