 | Atkins' Physical Chemistry, 7th Ed. by Peter W. Atkins
Buy used from: £15.00 This is the essential book for Physical chemistry. It's not the best textbook I've ever read, but it's the best text book I've ever read on physical chemistry for undergraduates. Pricey though.
|
 | Organometallics: A Concise Introduction by Christoph Elschenbroich
Buy used from: £30.00 Solid advanced undergraduate or postgraduate inorganic co-ordination chemistry text. Good section at the back about catalysis. Worth having in the long run.
|
 | Problem Solving in Organic Chemistry: A Training Course in Total Synthesis by JanArne Gewert
Buy new: £31.08 / Used from: £31.05 This book is ideal for advanced undergraduates or graduates wanting to hone their organic synthesis skills. Does a great job of discussing a variety of reactions. Good for problem class ideas.
|
 | An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry, 2nd Ed. by Graham L. Patrick
Buy used from: £10.35 Good introduction to the subject of how on earth the stuff you try to make in the lab is meant to work in the body. Not for advanced students who know a lot about biochemistry and biology already.
|
 | Chemistry of the Elements by A. Earnshaw
Buy new: £71.19 / Used from: £40.00 This is a factbook about lots of inorganic chemistry. Good reference and provides ample fuel for thought if you're a first year undergrad. Reads a bit like a phone directory though.
|
 | The Chemistry Maths Book by Erich Steiner
Buy used from: £8.99 If you're doing chemistry and you need some maths occasionally that you've not previously covered, this is the book for you. Not worth getting if you're doing a more intense maths course in parallel.
|
 | Guidebook to Mechanism in Organic Chemistry by Peter Sykes
Buy new: £40.37 / Used from: £16.50 Ah. Another organic book. You know, this used to cost only 20 quid not so long ago. Not a list of reactions but great for mechanisms and some phys-org chem. Brilliant for all the Hammet equation stuff

 | Organometallics 1: Complexes with Transition Metal-Carbon *a-bonds: Complexes with Transition Metal-Carbon *a-bonds Vol 1 (Oxford Chemistry Primers) by Manfred Bochmann
Buy new: £11.99 / Used from: £6.99 This is the best introduction to organometallics that I've seen for undergraduates. Starts you off right at the start with the 18 electron rule and never treats you like an idiot. First of 2 volumes.
|
 | Organometallics 2: Complexes with Transition Metal-Carbon *p bonds: Complexes with Transition Metal-carbon Pi-bonds Vol 2 (Oxford Chemistry Primers) by Manfred Bochmann
Buy new: £11.39 / Used from: £6.99 This is the 2nd of Bachman's little books. What he's written is ideal for quickly learning about organometallic complexes at undergrad level. Buy it. Buy it NOW.
