HISTORY OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

• In ancient days, chemical compound we're divided in two classes

  Organic

  Inorganic
• Were those source of minerals

  inorganic compounds
• Were those obtained from vegetables or animal sources that are materials produced.

  organic compounds
• organic compounds from plants (vegetable source)

  1. carbohydrates
  2. lipids
  3. protein
  4. vitamin
• organic compounds animal source

  1. nucleic acid
  2. lipids
  3. protein
  4. hormones
• Ancient time


  Men extracted chemicals from plants and animals to treat members of their tribes
• Defined Organic Chemistry as a branch of modern science He believed in the idea of vitalism "compounds could only originate from living organisms through the actions of some vital force"


  Jons Jacob Berzelius
• Discovered that Urea, could be made by heating ammonium cyanate he mixed silver cyanate and ammonium chloride to produce solid silver chloride and aqueous ammonium cyanate

  Fredrick Wohler
• chemical equation of silver chloride and aqueous ammonium cyanate

  
• Kolbe is most famous for the Kolbe electrolysis, a method for synthesizing hydrocarbons from carboxylic acids.
• a method for synthesizing hydrocarbons from carboxylic acids

  kolbe electrolysis
• Proposed the theories on the relationship between compound's chemical formula and physical distribution of its atoms

  Kekule
• Chemists engaged to formulate the nature of chemical bonding

  1900
• In the 20th century organic chemistry branched into sub- disciplines such as:

  polymer chemistry

  pharmacology

  bioengineering

  petro- chemistry
• Organic or inorganic: Carbon is predominant element

  organic
• Organic or inorganic:

  More volatile and also highly flammable

  organic
• organic or inorganic: Faster chemical reaction

  inorganic
• Organic or inorganic:

  No predominant element found. Some have carbon but there are exceptions

  inorganic
• Organic or inorganic: Not flammable and non-volatile

  inorganic
• organic or inorganic: Low melting and boiling point

  organic
• organic or inorganic: Soluble in water, non soluble in some organic

  inorganic
• organic or inorganic: Non electrolyte

  organic
• Exhibit isomerism

  organic
• Covalent bond

  organic
• An electrolyte is a substance that dissociates into ions when dissolved in a solvent, usually water. These ions can conduct electricity, which is why electrolytes are crucial for various biological and chemical processes.
• Electrolytes become ions when they dissolve in a solvent, typically water. This process is called dissociation.
