CLASSIFICATION OF JRGANIC COMPOUNDS

In most of its compounds carbon exhibits a constant covalency of four. Probably owing again to its peculiar position in the Periodic Table the carbon atom has the property of combining with other carbon atoms by means of one or more of its covalent linkages to form chains of atoms. Thus, one hydrogen atom of methane can be regarded as being replaced by a CH3 group in ethane. Similarly chains of three, four, five, etc. carbon atoms may be obtained producing propane, butane, pentane, and the higher hydrocarbons respectively.

Compounds which contain straight chains of carbon atoms are called aliphatic compounds. Introducing each carbon atom removes one hydrogen atom and replaces it by one carbon atom and three hydrogen atoms, the net increase being one atom of carbon and two of hydrogen. In this way a series of compounds is obtained, each member of which differs in formula from the member above or below it by a constant difference, namely CH2.

Such a series is called a homologue series. Every member of the series can be expressed by the general formula: CnH2n+2. The simplest homologous series begins with methane, CH4, and is as follows: methane, ethane, propane butane, pentane.

In a large number of organic compounds the carbon atoms instead of being in straight chains from closed rings containing six carbon atoms. Such substances are called aromatic compounds and if they are called heterocyclic, for example, pyridine.

The hydrocarbon methane with its four covalent linkages cannot undergo chemical reactions to form a covalent compound except by removing one or more hydrogen atoms and their replacement by ither atoms or groups A compound such as methane is called saturated. Compounds which can react metely by adding on other elements or goups of elements are called unsaturated and form additional products.
