(ADM) Module on History of Organic Chemistry !

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by

educators both from public and private institutions to assist you, the teacher or
facilitator in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum
while overcoming their personal, social, and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and
independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also
aims to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into
consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies that
will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this
module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them
to manage their own learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and
assist the learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

Lesson
History of Organic
1 Chemistry
Organic chemistry is the study of compounds that have carbon. It includes
the structure, properties, composition, reactions and preparation of carbon
containing compounds. It introduces the fundamental applications of organic
chemistry to society, technology and the development of consumer products.

This branch of chemistry is limited to compounds produced by living

organisms and includes the human-made substances like plastics. It also includes
the pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, foods, explosives, paints and cosmetics.

 What is It

Arrange the sequence of events based on the history of Organic Chemistry.

Use letters A-E in showing the order of events. Write your answers in your activity
notebook.
_______He classified chemical compounds into two main groups: organic and
organic.
_______They simply kept records of the useful properties and uses of things like
willow bark which was used as a pain killer.
_______In 1828, Frederich Wohler discovered urea, an organic compound.
_______Trace back to ancient time as medicine when men extracted chemical from
plants and animals.
_______In early 1800’s, organic chemistry is defined as a branch of modern science
by Jon Jacob Berzelius.

The historical backdrop of organic chemistry can be followed back to

antiquated occasions as medication when men extricated substance from plants
and creatures to treat individuals from their clans. Anyway they didn't mark their
work as Organic science, they just tracked the helpful properties and employments
of things like willow bark which was utilized as a pain killer.(It is presently realized
that willow bark contains acetylsalicylic corrosive, the fixing in headache medicine).

Their insight framed the premise of current pharmacology which has a solid
reliance on information on Organic Chemistry. Their insight shaped the premise of
current pharmacology which has a solid reliance on information on Chemistry.

Organic Chemistry was first characterized as part of current science in the

mid 1800's by Jon Jacob Berzelius. He characterized substance mixes into two
fundamental gatherings: natural on the off chance that they are begun in living or
once-living issue and inorganic in the event that they originated from "mineral" or
non-living issue. Like most physicist of his period, Berzelius had faith in Vitalism -
the possibility that natural compound could just start from living life forms through
the activity of crucial power.

8
 In 1828, Frederich Wohler (understudy of Berzelius) found that urea-a
natural compound-could be made by warming ammonium cyanate ( an inorganic
compound).Wohler blended silver cyanate and ammonium chloride to deliver strong
silver chloride and fluid ammonium cyanate. Amazingly, the strong left over after
the vanishing of the water was not ammonium cyanate, it was a substance with the
properties of urea. Wholer's perception denoted the first run through a natural
compound had been orchestrated from an inorganic source. (Green Medicine, 2018)

NH4OCN(aq) (NH2)2CO(s)

Inorganic organic

AgOCN (aq) + NH4Cl AgCl (s) + NH4OCN (aq)

Silver cyanate + Ammonium chloride Solid silver chloride Watery ammonium cyanate

During the twentieth century, natural science extended into sub-trains, for
instance, polymer science, pharmacology, bioengineering, petro-science and
various others. During that century, a great many new substances were found and
incorporated. Today over 98% of every single realized compound are natural.
