General Concepts of Organic
Chemistry
Organic Chemistry:
“Branch of
chemistry which deals with carbon compounds and its derivatives.”
Carbon (abundant ) → Tetravalent (4 bonds)
Organic
Reactions:
Chemical reactions that are undergone by organic
compounds .
Factors that
determine the reactivity of organic reactions:
- Inductive effect
- Hyperconjugation
- Resonance (Mesomeric effect)
- Electromeric effect
