Students may use this book for preparation of Organic Chemistry for engineering entrance exams as well as medical entrance exams.

Peter Sykes Chemistry books:

cover all the aspects of the subject they are dealing with. Organic Chemistry by Peter sykes introduces students to activation parameters like the Dimorth’s ET Parameter and spectroscopic data. The underlying theme of mechanism is evident in all the chapters and structures, energy and kinetics are all covered from the perspective of mechanism.

Peter Sykes was a prominent chemist and served as a Vice-Master at the Christ’s College, Cambridge University as a Vice-Master. He passed away in 2003 but his Orgnaic Chemistry book is still popular in undergraduate students all over the world.

Topics covered in the book are: 

  • The Strengths of Acids and Bases

  • Nucleophilic Substitution at a Saturated Carbon Atom

  • Carbocations, Electron-deficient N and O Atoms and their Reactions

  • Electrophilic and Nucleophilic Substitution in Aromatic Systems

  • Electrophilic and Nucleophilic Addition to C=C

  • Nucleophilic Addition to C=O

  • Elimination Reactions

  • Carbanions and their Reactions

  • Radicals and their Reactions

  • Symmetry Controlled Reactions

  • Linear Free Energy Relationships

The best-covered topics in Peter Sykes Chemistry book are – Structure Reactivity and Mechanism, Strengths of Acide and Base, and Radicals and their Reactions. Students should read this book to understand Organic reaction mechanisms well. However, there is too much information given on reaction mechanisms in this book, which may confuse some students.

Sykes Organic Chemistry is in demand in JEE aspirants for the way it covers Mechanistic Organic Chemistry but students will need to explore other books to cover the rest of the topics and for IIT JEE practice papers.
