INTRODUCTION
Chemistry is part of science. This explains the nature of the materials. Chemistry
is applied to the world in a variety of ways. A chemically, materials are derived from
living and non-living things. Basically the chemicals are divided into two types. They are
organic and inorganic products. They are also called molecules.
In chemistry, an organic compound is a chemical compound that usually contains
carbon. Along with carbon and hydrogen, the basic part of the conversion is called
organic compounds. They are also known as hydrocarbons. Organic compounds contain
elements other than carbon hydrogen. They are oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, phosphorus
(found in many biochemical substances) and halogens. For historical reasons, some
classes of carbon (e.g., carbonates and cyanide salts), with a few other exceptions (eg,
carbon dioxide), are not classified as organic compounds and are considered mineral.
Although organic compounds make up only a small percentage of the Earth's surface,
they are considered to be of great importance. This is because all known organisms are
based on organic compounds. Organisms combine inorganic carbon compounds into
organic compounds by initiating processes (carbon cycle) by converting a hydrogen
source such as carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars and other organic molecules,
such as light (photosynthesis) or others. Although organic compounds are categorized in
a variety of ways, natural and synthetic classification is mostly used. The classification
based on the bonding, the bond between carbon and metal is called organometallic bond,
the carbon phosphorus bond is organophosphorus bond, and the carbon hydrogen bond is
hydrocarbon bond. Also, organic compounds are classified as small molecules and
polymers based on morphology or molecular weight.
Organic molecules are used in many industries in the world as food,
pharmaceutical, fuel and construction. Alkanes are widely used as fuel for automobile
gasoline and home cooking fuels such as propane, octane and methane. Alcohols such as
ethanol and isopropanol are used as antiseptic drugs and primarily in the beverage
industry (beer / wine). Also used as for carboxylic acids, for example aspirin, one of the
oldest commercial drugs, contains carboxylic acid.
