Organic Chemistry Nomenclature Organic chemistry involves the chemistry of compounds containing carbon. Because of carbon's ability to bond to itself in a variety of ways, there are over 6 million different organic compounds. The properties of organic compounds differ from those of inorganic compounds most notably in their relatively low melting point (usually under 300ºC), low boiling points, solubility in other organic solvents ... - Indicate where the double bond occurs by numbering the carbon chain starting with end closest to the double bond. Then use the prefix stem to indicate the num...
