Outline of organic chemistry

The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to organic chemistry:

Organic chemistry is the scientific study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation (by synthesis or by other means) of carbon-based compounds, hydrocarbons, and their derivatives. These compounds may contain any number of other elements, including hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, the halogens as well as phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur.[1][2][3]

gollark: They run on 10W or so and I ran it through `units`.
gollark: (8kcal for 1 hour of brain operation)
gollark: Brains are basically free to operate energy-wise. So you can do an hour of thinking at once. How useful.
gollark: Sad!
gollark: "Stored energy" had better not include arbitrary chemical/thermal/potential energy.
