Description

Organic Chemistry provides an easy access to the core information in the field and makes a comprehensive approach to disseminate information in a clear and systematic manner. Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon, an element that forms strong chemical bonds to other carbon atoms as well as to many other elements like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and the halogens. Because of its versatility in forming covalent bonds, more than a million carbon compounds are known. Organic chemistry is a discipline within chemistry that involves the scientific study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-based compounds, hydrocarbons, and their derivatives, these compounds may contain any number of other elements, including hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, the halogens as well as phosphorus, silicon and sulphur. Organic compounds are structurally diverse and the range of application of organic compounds is enormous. This book is an invaluable aid to students in organic chemistry as a supplement to their text-books. Before going through this book, the student should become acquainted with the fundamentals of organic chemistry.
