Contents:
Introduction -- The fundamentals -- The synthesis and analysis of organic compounds -- The chemistry of life -- Pharmaceuticals and medicinal chemistry -- Pesticides -- The chemistry of the senses -- Polymers, plastics, and textiles -- Nanochemistry.
Summary: Organic chemistry is the chemistry of compounds of carbon. The ability of carbon to link together to form long chain molecules and ring compounds as well as bonding with many other elements has led to a vast array of organic compounds. These compounds are central to life, forming the basis for organic molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids.--Amazon.
