Organic Chemistry | Lecture 1 Full | Introduction, Alkanes, Nomenlatures | ChemU

This video is the full vesrion of the First Lecture on our Organic Chemistry course for undergraduate students of chemistry, biochemistry, pharmaceutical sceinces, and medicine. In this lecture we will discuss three main topics today: Introduction to Organic Chemistry, Alkanes, and Nomenclatures. By the way, in the last part of the lecture there will be a little pause, during which you will learn about the funniest and least trivial names of the organic compounds.
