Designing Organic Syntheses: A Programmed Introduction to the Synthon Approach
This programmed book aims to teach students to design organic syntheses for themselves. Almost all available books on synthesis describe methods and syntheses already carried out by others. This book confronts the student with the problem of synthesizing molecules given nothing but their structure. The synthon approach is used: disconnections breaking the molecule into useable fragments (synthons) are introduced to the student who then teaches himself how to use them by solving a series of problems of steadily increasing difficulty. Though the book has the form of a programme it is not a conventional programmed text. There are no multiple choice questions. Instead, the student has a planned sequence of problems designed to demonstrate the use of each new concept and to test his understanding of it. Each problem is followed by possible solutions and full explanations, so that if the student fails to solve a problem he will still understand the answer better for having attempted the problem himself. The student therefore has the possibility of continuous self-assessment through the use of a large number of problems.

I thought these might fit nicely with this text as a review and also as a reminder with references of some more advanced reactions.......java

Preface
The title of this three-part volume derives from a key theme of the book- the logic underling the rational analysis of complex synthetic problems. Although the book deals almost exclusively with molecules of biological origin, which are ideal for developing the fundamental ideas of multistep synthetic design because of their architectural complexity and variety, the approach taken is fully applicable to others types of carbon structures.
Note Moderator, there isn't a way to check what books have already been uploaded. With journal articles the dates are useful but with books ther isn't a way that I can find to check if the books have been posted........so with that said and having searched for the title I post this............java

This is for all those bees that would like to know how reactions occur, what makes them possible and what prevents them. Therefore, from now on, before you speculate on reaction mechanism or post questions about it you can check this book and you might find the answer you are looking for (even without going to the library, but please go there anyway as it doesn’t hurts ;) ). This book should be a “must read” for every student of organic chemistry.
This non OCR-ed version is 5MB big (and I’m sure it’s worth the server space :P ).

Well, this is one of those anthem reviews on the back cover, but since I fully agree with it...
'Sykes' remains the bible ofmechanistic organic chemistryfor thousands of undergraduates, and there is certainly no English language publication of which I am aware which comes even close to challenging it in terms of clarity and coverage;...
will undoubtedly remain the recommended text on this subject

Excerp from Preface......The present volume of the series Methods and Principles in Medicinal Chemistry focuses on the impact of pharmacokinetics and metabolism in Drug Design. Pharmacokinetics is the study of the kinetics of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs and their pharmacologic, therapeutic, or toxic response in animals and man.
