Principles of Organic Chemistry

By Bradley Horne

An organic compound refers to a compound where carbon forms covalent bonds with other atoms. Within the field of chemistry, organic chemistry is a specialized field dedicated to investigating the structure, reactions, and properties of organic compounds. This involves the study of both physical and chemical properties of these compounds. The structure of organic compounds speaks about their chemical composition and formula. Chemical synthesis of natural products, polymers, and pharmaceuticals are some of the various types of organic reactions explored in this field. Hydrocarbons, as well as carbon bonded with other elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and halogens are the subject of study within organic chemistry. This textbook attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of organic chemistry and how such concepts have practical applications. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, this book covers the most significant topics in the field of organic chemistry.
