    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.
