In 1828, a German chemist Friedrich Wöhler (1800-1882) amazed the sience
community by using the inorganic compound ammonium cyanate to synthesize
urea, an organic substance found in the urine of many animals.

Organic Chemistry
Prior to 1828, all organic compounds had been obtained from organisms or their
remains. The scientific philosophy back then was that the synthesis of organic
compounds could only be produced within living matter while inorganic compounds
were synthesized from non-living matter. A theory known as "Vitalism" stated that a
"vital force" from living organisms was necessary to make an organic compound.
Vital Force

The scientific philosophy back then was that the synthesis of organic compounds](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060320/5f0d16d07e708231d438a01c/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Today, chemists consider organic compounds to be those containing carbon and
one or more other elements, most often hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, or the
halogens, but sometimes others as well. Organic chemistry is defined as the
chemistry of carbon and its compounds.
Modern Definition
Why CARBON
There are more carbon compounds than there are compounds of all other
elements combined. The great number of carbon compounds is possible because
of the ability of carbon to form strong covalent bonds to each other while also
holding the atoms of other nonmetals strongly. Carbon atoms have the special
property to bond with each other to form chains, ring, spheres, and tubes. Chains
of carbon atoms can be thousands of atoms long, as in polyethylene.

Aufbau (Building-up) Principle
The orbitals of lower energy are filled in first with the
electrons and only then the orbitals of high energy are filled
atoms tend to combine in such a way that they each have
eight electrons in their valence shells, giving them the same
electronic configuration as a noble gas

Valence Shell and Valence Electron
The highest occupied electron shell is called the valence shell, and the electrons occupying this shell are called valence electrons
The halogens (F, Cl, Br etc.) are one electron short of a valence shell octet, and are among
the most reactive of the elements. In their chemical reactions halogen atoms achieve a
valence shell octet by capturing or borrowing the eighth electron from another atom or
molecule. The alkali metals Li, Na, K etc are also exceptionally reactive, but for the opposite
reason

Valence
The number of valence shell electrons an atom must gain or lose to achieve a valence octet is called valence. In covalent compounds the number of bonds which are characteristically formed by a given atom is equal to that atom's valence.

Bonding
Ionic BondingWhen sodium is burned in a chlorine atmosphere, it produces the compound sodium chloride. This has a high melting point (800 ºC) and dissolves in water to give a conducting solution. Sodium chloride is an ionic compound. Transfer of the lone 3s electron of a sodium atom to the half-filled 3p orbital of a chlorine atom generates a sodium cation (neon valence shell) and a chloride anion (argon valence shell). Electrostatic attraction results in these oppositely charged ions packing together in a lattice. The attractive forces holding the ions in place can be referred to as ionic bonds

Covalent Bonding
Covalent bonding occurs by a sharing of valence electrons, rather than an outright electron transfer. Similarities in physical properties (they are all gases) suggest that the diatomic elements H2, N2, O2, F2 & Cl2 also have covalent bonds
Double covalent bonding

Charge Distribution
If the electron pairs in covalent bonds were donated and shared absolutely evenly there would be no fixed local charges within a molecule. Although this is true for diatomic elements such as H2, N2 and O2, most covalent compounds show some degree of local charge separation, resulting in bond and / or molecular dipoles. A dipole exists when the centers of positive and negative charge distribution do not coincide
•In the formula for ozone the central oxygen atom has three bonds and a full positive charge while the right hand oxygen has a single bond and is negatively charged. The overall charge of the ozone molecule is therefore zero.
•Similarly, nitromethane has a positive-charged nitrogen and a negative-charged oxygen, the total molecular charge again being zero.
•Finally, azide anion has two negative-charged nitrogens and one positive-charged nitrogen, the total charge being minus one.
