Elements of organic chemistry

The extent of the interaction of synthesis design and reactivity prediction is even more extensive than implied above, in that both interrelate with a third very important element of organic chemistry — that of molecular design. The factors which control and are responsible for reactivity are precisely those that dictate how a particular... 

The new boxed essay Methane and the Biosphere in Chapter 2 combines elements of organic chemistry, biology, and environmental science to tell the story of where methane comes from and where it goes. 

Justus Liebig sgicj, "Rgdic ls 3re the elements of organic chemistry. In mineral chemistry the radicals are simple while in organic chemistry the radicals are compounds that is all the difference. The laws of combination and of reaction are otherwise the same. 

The reactions of the organic compounds treated up to this point, which are of particular value from the point of view of identification or the determination of structure, will be briefiy reviewed. In the case of a number of classes certain of these reactions and tests have already been summarized. In such cases references to the sections in which the summaries are given will be stated, in order to avoid undue repetition. These references should be re-read at this time along with what is now given. The attempt will not be made to include all the classes which have been mentioned, nor to emphasize exceptions to the general reactions discussed. It is the opinion of the author that in the study of the elements of organic chemistry, the attention of the student should be directed to general principles, and that the consideration of anomalous reactions and exceptions to the principles should be left to the detailed study of the specialist. 

Chemistry was analytical Elements of Organic Chemistry (Perkin was only 32 years earlier). Industrial Chemistry—Lecture and Laboratory, Applied Chemistry, Thermochemistry, and Applied Chemistry which included a thesis.

All the compounds we have shown you are built up on hydrocarbon (carbon and hydrogen) skeletons. Most have oxygen and/or nitrogen as well some have sulfur and some phosphorus, and maybe the halogens (F, Cl, Br, and I). These are the main elements of organic chemistry. 

The analysis is limited to compounds made of the usual elements of organic chemistry, with the exclusion of organometaUics, rocks, silicates, and metals. 

ZINDO is a semiempirical quantum mechanics program from Michael C. Zerner. It features the Hamiltonians INDO/1, INDO/2, CNDO/1, and CNDO/2, the former of which also include d orbitals. It has theoretical and spectroscopic parameters for the standard elements of organic chemistry and the first row of transition metals...
