Summary
Organic chemistry is carbon-based molecules — the chemistry of living things and plastics, fuels, drugs.
Functional groups (alcohol, acid, amine…) predict reactivity; shape includes isomers.
- Carbon makes four bonds — chains, rings, branches.
- Mechanisms show electron movement (curved arrows).
