Study Notes

Organic Chemistry

Definition

  • Study of carbon-containing compounds and their properties
  • Involves the study of structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds

Branches of Organic Chemistry

  • Petroleum Chemistry: study of petroleum-based compounds and their derivatives
  • Bioorganic Chemistry: study of organic compounds found in living organisms
  • Organometallic Chemistry: study of compounds containing carbon-metal bonds
  • Physical Organic Chemistry: study of the physical properties and reactions of organic compounds

Types of Organic Compounds

  • Aliphatic Compounds: open-chain compounds, e.g., alkanes, alkenes, alkynes
  • Aromatic Compounds: ring-shaped compounds, e.g., benzene, toluene
  • Heterocyclic Compounds: ring-shaped compounds containing atoms other than carbon, e.g., furan, pyridine
  • Functional Groups: specific groups of atoms that determine the properties of a compound, e.g., hydroxyl (-OH), carboxyl (-COOH)

Functional Groups and Their Properties

  • Hydrocarbons: contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms, e.g., methane, ethane
    • Saturated: single bonds between carbon atoms, e.g., ethane
    • Unsaturated: multiple bonds between carbon atoms, e.g., ethene
  • Alkyl Halides: contain a halogen atom, e.g., chloromethane
    • Reactivity: alkyl halides are highly reactive due to the electronegativity of the halogen atom
  • Aldehydes and Ketones: contain a carbonyl group, e.g., formaldehyde, acetone
    • Reactivity: aldehydes and ketones are highly reactive due to the polarity of the carbonyl group
  • Carboxylic Acids: contain a carboxyl group, e.g., acetic acid
    • Reactivity: carboxylic acids are weak acids, but react with bases to form salts

Reactions in Organic Chemistry

  • Substitution Reactions: replacement of a functional group with another, e.g., nucleophilic substitution
  • Elimination Reactions: removal of a functional group, e.g., beta-elimination
  • Addition Reactions: addition of a functional group to a molecule, e.g., electrophilic addition
  • Rearrangement Reactions: rearrangement of atoms within a molecule, e.g., alkyl shift

Laboratory Techniques

  • Chromatography: separation of mixtures based on differences in properties, e.g., gas chromatography, thin-layer chromatography
  • Spectroscopy: analysis of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation, e.g., infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
  • Crystallization: purification of a compound by crystallization from a solution

Explore the fundamentals of organic chemistry, including its definition, branches, types of compounds, functional groups, reactions, and laboratory techniques. Test your knowledge of aliphatic and aromatic compounds, substitution and elimination reactions, and more!
