Summary - Study of the compounds of carbon is organic chemistry. They form the basis of living organisms and the things around us. An unique property of carbon is 'catenation'. It is the property of forming bonds with the atoms of the same element. The catenation prope..

Aromatic compounds are those carbocyclic compounds that contain at least one benzene ring. The ring of six carbons in benzene or any of its derivatives is termed benzene ring or nucleus. A benzene ring may be represented in any of the following way..

A group of organs become organized into an organ system for coordinating a major function. Different organs in the digestive system carry out functions related to nutrition in an anima..

Nitro Compounds - Nitro compounds are characterized by the presence of nitro group (-NO 2 ) in their molecules. They may be aliphatic or aromatic compounds according to whether the nitro group is attached to alkyl or aryl groups. R - NO 2 ..

Nitroalkanes (R - NO 2 ) and alkyl nitrites (R - ONO) are functional isomers of each other. Treatment of alkyl halides (R - X) with KNO 2 gives R - ONO as major product while its treatment with AgNO 2 gives R - NO 2 as major product. Nitro arenes can be prepared by reacting are..

Importance of Diazonium Salt in Synthetic Organic Chemistry - Aryl diazonium salts constitute intermediates that can be used to synthesis many classes of organic compounds especially aryl halides in the pure state. For e.g., 1,2,3 - Tri bromobenzene is not formed in th..

When the functional group or any substituent, in aromatic compounds is directly attached to the benzene ring, it is a called nuclear substituted compound. Such compounds are named as the derivatives of benzene under the IUPAC system. However, the c..

Nuclear Substituted Compounds When the functional group or any substituent, in aromatic compounds is directly attached to the benzene ring, it is a called nuclear substituted compound. Such compounds are named as the derivativ..
