Organic Chemistry With a Biological Emphasis

This textbook is designed for students in biology, biochemistry, or the health sciences and is meant to bridge the gap between organic chemistry on one side and biological systems on the other. It rapidly covers foundational topics like organic structure, bonding, and stereochemistry but emphasizes the biological relevance of organic reactions. This text includes determining structures, organic reactivity, and important reaction types- nucleophilic substitutions and acid-base equilibria-in biological contexts. It goes into detail to show examples about how the principles of organic chemistry apply in the study of biochemical processes, making it a very useful resource for the student in life sciences who needs a practical understanding of organic chemistry in biological systems.

This lecture gives an overview introduction into organic chemistry. It focuses on chemistry, as this plays a fundamental role for biological systems through organic molecules. It touches all the basics: the unique properties of carbon atoms, the types of bonds carbon can form, and the structure and isomerism of organic molecules. The chain isomerism, positional isomerism, and functional group isomerism thus discussed give students in medical and biological sciences a sound background in understanding the molecular mechanism behind organic chemistry.
