The Fifth Edition has undergone the most extensive revisions of any edition so far. Changes include: new early chapter on acids and bases in organic chemistry; ionic and free-radical mechanisms; stronger emphasis on the biological, environmental, medical and industrial applications of organic chemistry as well as on organic synthesis; early introduction of the structure and reactivity of carbonyl compounds, oxidation-reduction reactions; and synthesis using Grignard and organolithium reagents.
