Organic Chemistry I Dr Alex Roche Organic chemistry is the chemistry of Carbon and its compounds. Organic molecules constitute the essence of life(fats,sugars,proteins,DNA),and also permeate our everyday lives (cotton,polyester,toothpaste,plastics,etc). Chemistry's top two commercial fields are organic dominated:Pharmaceuticals and Polymers. Organic chemistry is also easy-IF:don't fall behind do the problems understand,not memorize Notes are available at: http://crab.rutgers.edu/-alroche/ Office:SCI 311 Labs:SCI309/319/328 Tel:(856)225-6166 alroche@crab.rutgers.edu Chol Introduction (landscape) Page I Ch01 Introduction (landscape) Page 1 Organic Chemistry I Dr Alex Roche Organic chemistry is the chemistry of Carbon and its compounds.
