What is organic chemistry?
Organic chemistry is the study of the chemistry ofcarbon compounds.
The compounds of carbon are the centralsubstances of which all living things on this planetare made.Every living organism is made of organic chemicals.
The proteins that make up your hair, skin, andmuscles; the DNA that controls your geneticheritage; the foods that nourish you; and themedicines that heal you are all organic chemicals.

Although carbon is the principal element in organiccompounds, most also contain hydrogen, and manycontain nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur,halogens or other compounds.

Anyone with a curiosity about lifeand living things, and anyone whowants to be a part of the remarkableadvances now occurring in medicineand the biological sciences, must firstunderstand organic chemistry.

Although carbon is the principal element inorganic compounds, most also containhydrogen, and many contain nitrogen, oxygen,phosphorous, sulfur, halogens or othercompounds.

Currently there are close to 37 million knownchemical compounds, of these 99% of themcontain carbon.
What makes carbon special?
SCH 102
Dr. Solomon Derese 19
• As a group 4A element (at the centre of theperiodic table), carbon can share four valenceelectrons and form four strong covalent bonds.
• Furthermore, carbon atoms can bond to oneanother, forming long chains and rings fromthe simplest methane with one carbon complexmolecules such as DNA with more than 100million carbons.
The reason for this are:

Each arrangement corresponds to a differentcompound, and has it own characteristic set ofphysical and chemical properties.

Carbon atoms can attach themselves to one anotherto an extent not possible for atoms of any otherelements.

Carbon has four electrons in its outer most shell andrequires four more electrons in a covalent bond tohave a complete outer shell of electrons.

Functional Groups
• Chemists have learned through many years ofexperience that organic compounds can beclassified according to their structural featuresand that members of a given family often havesimilar physical and chemical behaviour.
• The structural features that make it possible forclassify organic compounds by reactivity arecalled functional groups.
24
SCH 102
Dr. Solomon Derese
A functional group is part of a molecule where mostof its chemical reactions occur. It is the part thateffectively the compound’s chemical properties (andmost of its physical properties as well).
25
SCH 102
Dr. Solomon Derese 26
The chemistry of every molecule, regardless of size and complexity, is
determined by the functional group it
contains.
SCH 102
Dr. Solomon Derese
• They contain only C-C single bonds.• The alkanes are the simplest class of organic
molecules because they contain no functionalgroups. They are extremely unreactive.

• Imatinib is used for the treatment of ChronicMyelogenous Leukemia (CML), before its discoverya diagnosis of a relatively uncommon cancer of theblood and bone marrow, was a death sentence.

• Imatinib was discovered through collaboration of,an oncologist, Brian Drucker, and a biochemist,Nicholas Lydon, using results on the genetic basisof CML.
SCH 102
Dr. Solomon Derese
A number organic compounds were screened fortheir ability to inhibit bcr–abl, and this resulted inthe discovery of imatinib as the drug of choice fortreatment of CML.
