ORGANIC CHEM Flashcards
He insisted on a separation of organic and inorganic substances
Jons Jacob Berzelius
Produced soaps from various fatty acids and alkalis. He was able to demonstrate a chemical change without the vital force
Michel Chevreul
Produced an organic compound (urea) from inorganic source (ammonium cyanate)
Friedrich Wohler
Synthesized acetic acid from carbon disulfide
Hermann Kolbe
They suggested that carbon is tetravalent
Kelulé and Couper
Stated that carbon is not only tetravalent but also tetrahedral
Jacobus Van’t Hoff
any atom that is not carbon or hydrogen is called
heteroatom
Combination of two or more atomic orbitals to form the same number of hybrid orbitals, having the same shape and energy
Hybridization
He first developed the hybridization theory
Linus Pauling
The overlap of the larger lobes of the sp3 orbitals with the 1s orbitals of hydrogen
Sigma bond
Formed when unhybridized p orbitals of carbon overlap
Pi orbitals
Result of the overlap of one sigma and 2 pi bonds
Triple bond
ROR
Ether
RX
Haloalkane
