CLASSIFICATION OF ORGANIC COMPOUND – OPEN CHAIN COMPOUND – CYCLIC COMPOUND AND ITS TYPE.<\/p>\n
[fvplayer id=”784″]<\/p>\n
Here’s a clear explanation of the Classification of Organic Compounds<\/strong>, focusing on Open Chain Compounds<\/strong> and Cyclic Compounds<\/strong>, along with their types<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Organic compounds are primarily classified based on the arrangement of their carbon atoms<\/strong> into:<\/p>\n \u2705 These compounds contain straight or branched chains<\/strong> of carbon atoms. Straight Chain:<\/strong><\/p>\n Methane: CH\u2084<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Propane: CH\u2083\u2013CH\u2082\u2013CH\u2083<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n Branched Chain:<\/strong><\/p>\n Isobutane: \u2705 These contain carbon atoms arranged in rings<\/strong>. Ring contains only carbon atoms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Resemble aliphatic compounds in behavior.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Ring of carbon atoms only<\/strong>, non-aromatic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n \ud83d\udcd8 Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cyclopropane (C\u2083H\u2086)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Cyclobutane (C\u2084H\u2088)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Contain conjugated \u03c0-electrons<\/strong> in ring.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Follow H\u00fcckel’s rule<\/strong>: (4n + 2) \u03c0 electrons.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n \ud83d\udcd8 Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n Benzene (C\u2086H\u2086)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Naphthalene (C\u2081\u2080H\u2088)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Ring contains carbon atoms + other atoms<\/strong> (like O, N, S)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n \ud83d\udcd8 Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n Furan (O in ring)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Pyridine (N in ring)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Thiophene (S in ring)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
