This is a unique, personally created course, there is no single required textbook.

(Although it borrows heavily from a simple book and a detailed book )

and 

This is a graduate Level Organic Chemistry Course. 
I expect you to be fully familiar with the understanding and application of the content of my undergraduate Organic I and Organic II Courses.

You may want to view old final exams from my Organic I and Organic II courses to ascertain if you are prepared for this course.
