Study Notes
Aromatic Hydrocarbons
- Basic aromatic compound is benzene
- Aromatic hydrocarbons are also known as arenes
Nomenclature of Mono Substituted Benzene
- Examples include methylbenzene, methoxybenzene, bromobenzene, etc.
Isomerism
- Different organic compounds with the same molecular formula but different physical and chemical properties are called isomers
- Isomerism is the general phenomenon characterized by compounds with the same molecular formula but different bonding arrangements of atoms or groups within the molecule
- Types of isomerism:
- Structural isomerism:
- Chain isomerism: Isomers differ in the variation of the carbon chain (or) skeleton
- Position isomerism: Isomers differ in the position of attachment of the functional group to the carbon chain
- Functional isomerism: If the molecules have the same molecular formula but different functional groups, they are called functional isomers.
- Structural isomerism:
