Beilstein Handbook of Organic Chemistry. This reference (55) is one of the most significant collections of data in organic chemistry. The physical and chemical properties of organic compounds are tabulated in more than 500 fields. Most of these fields are searchable, and a sample of the record for chlorobenzene [108-90-7] is shown in Table 3.

This section will provide a brief outline of fundamental effects of silyl groups on the electrochemical properties of organic compounds, with special emphasis on the interpretation based upon molecular orbital (MO) theory. 

The process that is outlined on the next page will help you to predict the physical properties of organic compounds by examining the intermolecular forces between molecules. As you progress through the chapter, referring back to this process will enable you to understand the reasons behind trends in physical properties. 

Realization of purely organic ferromagnets remains of multidisciplinary scientific interest. They are not yet usable realities, but it is already possible to state an overall conceptual framework for exploiting the magnetic properties of organic compounds. It is highly necessary to establish synthetic methods which enable us to obtain macroscopic spins almost stoichiometri-cally as designed.

It was at Columbia that Hammett carried out his research on the physical properties of organic compounds that made him famous. His first accomplishment was his development of a concept now known as the acidity function, a new interpretation of the behavior of acids in concentrated and dilute solutions. He also derived the Hammett equation and Hammett function for organic substances, accomplishments for which he is perhaps best known today. In 1940, he published Uistextbook Physical-Organic Chemistry, which some chemists have called "one of the great textbooks in the history of chemistry."... 

The reducing properties of organic compounds of sulfur, such as methyl mercaptan, show up in partial reduction of trigeminal to geminal dihalides [243]. Dimethyl sulfide reduces hydroperoxides to alcohols and ozonides to aldehydes while being converted to dimethyl sulfoxide [244].
