Hello,

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds, which include not only hydrocarbons but also compounds with any number of other elements.

Friedrich Wöhler is widely regarded as a pioneer in organic chemistry (known as the father of organic chemistry) as a result of his synthesizing of the biological compound urea (a component of urine in many animals).

Hope this helps. You can contact for any further guidelines.
