ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Organic chemistry is the study of carbon chemistry and the
compounds of carbon.
Majority of chemical compounds on earth are organic.
The main elements involved in organic chemistry are C, H, O, N,
HC = hydrocarbon
Organic chemistry reminds us of plants and animals but is not
limited to such.
Natural medicines: penicillin, cortisone, streptomycin
Manmade medicines: novocaine, sulfa drugs, aspirin.
Natural textile fibers: nylon, Dacron, latex, rayon
Polymers: saran, Teflon, Styrofoam, plastics, polyethylene,
PBC’s

FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF
CARBON
CARBON WILL HAVE 4 COVALENT BONDS
NITROGEN WILL HAVE 3 COVALENT BONDS
OXYGEN WILL HAVE 2 COVALENT BONDS
HYDROGEN WILL HAVE 1 COVALENT BOND
REMEMBER TO MAKE SURE THESE ATOMS
ALWAYS HAVE THE ABOVE # OF BONDS

The Structural Complexity of Organic Molecules
Reviewing the atomic structure and properties of carbon, we can get
an idea of why organic molecules can be complex.
Contributing factors include:
1. Electron configuration, electronegativity, covalent bonding
2. Bond properties, catenation, and molecular shape.
catenation - two atoms of the same element bound to each other
3. Molecular stability
•atomic size and bond strength
15-4
•available orbitals

Chemical Diversity
Diversity in structure and behavior is due to interrelated factors:
1. Bonding to heteroatoms - See Figure 15.2
2. Electron density and reactivity
•C - C bond
EN = 0; therefore the C-C bond is nonpolar
and in general unreactive.
•C - H bond
EN ~ 0; therefore the C-H bond is nearly
nonpolar and fairly unreactive.
•C - O bond
EN = 1; therefore the C-O bond is polar
and reactive.
•bonds to other heteroatoms are usually large and therefore
•weak and reactive.

SHAPE, GEOMETRY, STRUCTURE
Since 0rganic chemistry is limited to a small number of elements,
why are there so many molecules and compounds possible?
Structure, geometry is very important. Remember molecules exist
in 3-D and Chem RX’s occur because the approach is easiest
(requires less energy) - use molecules to show difficulty of approach
(steric hindrance)
Different geometry, shape or structure will give molecules different
physical or chemical properties.
Most common geometry for carbon compounds:
Linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, cyclo
Stability can be demonstrated by using models and feeling the amount
of stress needed to make the model.

HYDROCARBONS
Carbon Skeletons and Hydrogen Skins
When determining the number of different skeletons, remember that
Each C can form a maximum of four single bonds, OR two
single and one double bond, OR one single and triple bond.
The arrangement of C atoms determines the skeleton, so a
straight chain and a bent chain represent the same skeleton.
Groups joined by single bonds can rotate, so a branch pointing
down is the same as one pointing up.
