Engage students in complex problem solving with unparalleled pedagogy
Wade & Simek’s Organic Chemistry focuses students on the fundamental reasoning and principles of organic chemistry without compromising the conceptual underpinnings and clear explanations needed to prevent memorization. The authors’ hallmark student-oriented approach to problem-solving directs students to the individual steps of each reaction, shows how the steps contribute to the overall reaction, and incorporates unique strategies and hints. Organized around functional groups, the text incorporates complete discussions of mechanisms. The two-tiered approach to Mechanism and Key Mechanism Boxes concentrates on 20 Key Mechanisms that comprise nearly all of the mechanisms students will encounter.
Personalize learning with Mastering Chemistry
By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, Mastering personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student. Mastering Chemistry provides an extension of learning, allowing students a platform to practice, learn, and apply knowledge outside of the classroom.

L.G. “Skip” Wade—After receiving his B.A. from Rice in 1969, Wade went on to Harvard University, where he did research with Professor James D. White. While at Harvard, he served as the Head Teaching Fellow for the organic laboratories and was strongly influenced by the teaching methods of two master educators, Professors Leonard K. Nash and Frank H. Westheimer. After completing his Ph.D. at Harvard in 1974, Dr. Wade joined the chemistry faculty at Colorado State University. Over the course of fifteen years at Colorado State, Dr. Wade taught organic chemistry to thousands of students working toward careers in all areas of biology, chemistry, human medicine, veterinary medicine, and environmental studies. He also authored research papers in organic synthesis and in chemical education, as well as eleven books reviewing current research in organic synthesis. Since 1989, Dr. Wade has been a chemistry professor at Whitman College, where he teaches organic chemistry and pursues interests in organic synthesis and forensic chemistry. Dr. Wade received the A.E. Lange Award for Distinguished Science Teaching at Whitman in 1993.
