This introduction to Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry covers isomers, compounds with the same molecular formula but different structures, illustrated with examples like C4H10 and C3H8O. Engage in guided practice by drawing dash diagrams for all possible isomers of C5H12O and classifying molecules as alkanes, alkenes, or alkynes. Additionally, learn about functional groups including halogen compounds, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amines, amides, and amino acids, essential building blocks of biomolecules such as nucleotides.

Introduction to Organic Chemistry And Biochemistry
ISOMERS • Compounds with the same molecular formulae and different structures (they have different names and different physical and chemical properties) • C4H10 • C3H8O
Guided practice • Draw dash diagrams for all the possible isomers of C5H12O • Classify the molecules on pg 121 as either an alkanes, alkene, or alkyne. Can any one be cyclic as well? Explain • Write the general formulae for and alkane, an alkene, and an alkyne.
FUNCTIONAL GROUPS • HALOGEN COMPOUNDS – organic halides • ALCOHOL and ETHER
ALDEHYDES & KETONES • CARBOXYLIC ACIDS & ESTERS • AMINES & AMIDES • AMINO ACIDS
Nucleotides • Building blocks of nucleic acids • Made of 3 parts • 1 phosphate group • 1 simple sugar = ribose or deoxy-ribose • 1 nitrogenous base • Purine or a pyrimidine • Several nucleotides liked together make up one Nucleic acid RNA or DNA
