The “Laboratory Reactions” edition describes organic reactions that occur under strong reaction conditions, offering fundamental concepts of organic chemistry. It serves as an essential guide for students and professionals in organic chemistry, providing a comprehensive overview of both fundamental and advanced organic reactions. Designed to facilitate learning and practical application, this book bridges the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world practice.

In “Laboratory Reactions,” readers will find a well-structured and detailed exploration of organic reactions, starting with basic principles and progressing to more complex topics. Each chapter is carefully written to make complex concepts easy to understand with the help of illustrative examples, often with YouTube clips, and useful chemoinformatics applications with Python codes.

I opened a blog called “Jeongbin’s Study Room” to collect knowledge from many people. The enthusiasm for organic chemistry is still strong today, but a few years ago, it was significant, as organic chemistry was essential for various exams. Since studying organic chemistry in elementary, middle, and high school was rare, I anticipated a significant academic demand for organic chemistry. Therefore, since 2018, I have been sharing articles on organic chemistry on “Jeongbin’s Study Room” and communicating, correcting, and discussing with people. I have had many discussions online with medical professionals, pharmacists, lawyers, current teachers, and professors, among others. Now, as we welcome the new year 2024, I declare that the compilation of organic chemistry knowledge through collective intelligence is complete and I am publishing this book. I hope that this book can lower the barrier of organic chemistry as a field of study.
