Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry

Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry provides the chemical community with authoritative and critical assessments of the many aspects of physical organic chemistry. The field is a fast developing one, with results and methodologies finding application from biology to solid state physics.

This latest volume deals comprehensively with investigations that can be traced back to the birth of the field but which are still proving critical to the understanding of the stability of organic molecules and the mechanisms for their reactions.

Introduction. Quantitative thermodynamic criteria of stability in the gas phase. Theoretical calculations. Uncertainties. Thermodynamics and structure of selected species. Solution reactivity.
