For historical reasons discussed ablo, a few types o carbon-containin compoonds sic as carbides, carbonates, semple oxides o carbon (sic as CO an CO2), an cyanides are considered inorganic.[1] The distinction atween organic an inorganic carbon compoonds, while "uisefu in organizin the vast subject o chemistry... is somewhit arbitrary."[2]
Organic chemistry is the science concerned wi aw aspects o organic compoonds. Organic synthesis is the methodology o thair preparation.
