The compounds in which carbon forms a covalent bond with other atoms is called an organic compound. Organic chemistry is a sub-field of chemistry that focuses on the study of the properties, structure and reactions of organic compounds. The study of the properties of these compounds involves both physical and chemical properties. The study of the structure of organic compounds helps in determining their chemical composition and formula. There are various types of organic reactions which are studied within this field such as the chemical synthesis of natural products, polymers and drugs. Some of the chemicals which are dealt with in this field are hydrocarbons along with carbon bonded with other elements like oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus and halogens. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of organic chemistry. It provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a good understanding of this field as well as related fields. This textbook will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.
