ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
Modern definition.
Sources of organic Compounds:
i. Fossil fuels or Fossil remains.
ii. Plants and Natural product
iii. Partial &Total Synthesis
iv. Fermentation and Biotechnology
Fossil fuels or Fossil remains:
The main sources of fossil fuels or fossil remains are:
a. coal
b. petroleum
c. gas
a. Coal:
Coal is one of the organic compounds. Coal major source of into coke, and coal law" on pyrolysis Com can be converted destructive distillation. More than 200 organic compounds" have been directly isolated from coal tar, which are used. in ...drug. dyes, other. preparation of perfumes.. photographic developers and.
b. Petroleum:
Petroleum Sticky Liquid ground in that is
block Thick seeps out of the some part of world. It is Complex mixture of
hydrocarbons...
C. Natural gas:
Natural is a mixture of low boiling
hydrocarbons. Major portion of Natural gas other butane gases is CH4 (Methane)
gas (85%) ethane, propane and are ethane, propane, butane etc.

Partial and Total synthesis
a. Partial Synthesis:
In this synthesis, an intermediate product of reaction is used to synthesize required product. e.g soap formation Of vegetable ghee, etc
OR
When desired product is obtained from
intermediate (naturally available) product such as coal, petroleum or gas. it
is called Partial Synthesis.
b. Total synthesis:
In this synthesis starting material is converted through many steps into required product. e.g., synthesis of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen gases.
OR
When desired product is obtained from
starting material through many steps. e.g., in many cases, synthetic material such as. synthetic rubber
are superior than natural rubber.
Both total and partial synthesis are also
big source of organic compounds.
Fermentation /Biotechnology
a. Fermentation:
The chemical breakdown of the compound with
help of action of appropriate microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast. For examples
Fermentation of molasses produces
alcohol, vinegar, many alter products.

New allotrops of carbon: Bucky balls
The full name of Bucky balls is Buckminister Fullerenes. It was named after the name of architeches Buckminister who designed shaped buildings. It is used as conducter and lubricant. The carbon atoms range from 40 to 100. Carbon atoms. arranged are in cage shape structure. The Simplest form of Bucky balls is C60( molecule that contains 60 carbon atoms).
Functional Groups and Homologous Series
FUNCTIONAL GROUP:
An atom or a group of aloms, double bond or tripple bond whose presence gives its characteristic physical and chemical properties is called Functional group. e.g.
CH3-CH₂- CH₂-Cl
CH3-CH2-CH₂- OH
CH3-CH=CH₂
CH3-C=_CH
Importance of Functional group
Functional group is very important in organic
Chemistry for three reasons.
- Functional groups provide basis for the. semenclature of organic compound.
- Functional groups provide bases for the classification of organic compound.
- Functional groups is a site of chemical reactivity in a molecule containing functional group.
A series of compound in which adjacent member differ by CH₂ unit is called homologous series. An individual member is called homolog.
n R formula
1 CH3 CH3OH
2 CH3CH2 CH3CH2OH
2 CH3CH2CH2 CH3CH2CH2OH
General Characteristics of Homolologous series
General characteristics of homolologous series are as as follows.
- All compounds of same series contain elements and functional group.
- All compounds of homologous series can be represented by general formula. For example, general formula of alkane is CnH2n+2
- Molecular formula of each homelogue differs from above or below by CH₂ units.
- All compounds in homologous can be prepared by same methed.
- They have same set of chemical properties.
- There is a gradual variation in physical properties which icrease with increasing molecule weight.
Detection of elements in organic compounds
A) Detection of Carbon and Hydrogen
Carbon and hydrogen can be detected by by heating small amount organic compand with CuO in a glass tube. On heating mixture, carbon and hydrogen are converted into carbon dioxide and water respectively. carbon dioxide turns lime Water milky. Water vapors turns white anhydrous copper sulphate to blue which shows the presence of hydrogen.
Reactions:
C + Cuo → Co₂ + 2Cu
CO₂ + Ca (OH)2 Lime water → CaCO3 + 1420 Milky
H2 + CuO > H20 + Cu
H2O + CuSO4(Colourless) →CuSO4. 5. H₂O 1 Blue Colour)
B) Detection of Nitrogen, Sulphur and halogens
- Preparation of Lassaigne's Solution /Sodium Extract.
- Cut a metal Small piece of sodium, with knife.
- Put this piece of Sodium metel in fusion tube.
- Heat fusion tube with flame until Sodium melts.
- Add a Small amount of powdered organic compound.
- Than heat the fusion tube until it becomes red hot.
- Break the fusion tube in a chin dish containing 20ml water.
- Mix well, boil and filter the solution.
- Thus filtrate obtained is called lassaign solution.
- Divide this solution into three in proportions.
Nitrogen Test:
To a portion of Lassaign solution, add few drops of NaOH to make it alkaline. Then add freshly prepare FeSO4 solution in it. Finally few drops of FeCl3 solution are added in it and boiled. The appearance of blue greenish or blue (Purssian blue) shows the prosence of Nitrogen.
Reactions:
Na + C +N> NaСN
6 NaCN + FeSO4 →Na4[Fe(CN)6]+ Na2SO4
-Sodiumhexacyanoferate (III)
3Na4[Fe(CN)6] + 4FeCl3 → Fe4 [Fe(CN)6] + Na2SO4 + purssian blue
For both Nitrogen and Sulphur
Note: If blood red colour appears instead of purssian blue, it proves that bolth Nitrogen and sulphur are present.
2Na +2C + 2N + 2S → 2NaSCN
(NaSCN + FeSO4 → Na4[Fe(CNS)6] + Na2SO4
Na4[Fe(SCN)6] + 4FeCl3→ Fe (Fe (SCN)6]3+12NaCl Blood red ppt
To the second portion of Lassaign solution, add accetic acid and boil to expel H2S, which turns lead acetate paper to black that indicates the presence of sulphur in compound.
Na₂S + 2CH3COOH → H₂S+ 2 CH3COOH
H2S + (CH3COO)2Pb →PbS Black ppt + 2CH3COOH
Halogen test
Third portion of lassaign solution is boiled to expel cyanide and then add AgNO3 solution. Formation of white ppt soluble in NH4OH shows the presence of chlorine. A pale yellow ppt, partially soluble in NH4OH shows the presence of bromine. A deep yellow ppt, insoluble in NH4OH indicate iodine.
Reaction:
NaX+ AgNO3 → Agx + NaNO3
X = Cl, Br, I
