OverviewMost books on organic conformational deal with sterochemistry, while neglecting the spatial structure of organic molecules, especially the unusual ones. This ambitious monograph presents a global view of organic structure and conformational analysis in a very readable style. The author's fascination with the beauty and variety of shapes of organic molecules comes through in her description of the importance of molecular organization in organic chemical and biological systems, the quantum foundations of molecular spatial structure, molecular symmetry, chiralty and physical methods for studying molecular geometry. She provides ample bases for the new trends in organic conformational chemistry, including the application of Computer Assisted Molecular Design (CAMD) to organic synthesis.
