You learn the concepts of melody, rhythm, harmony, and progression.

Atoms are notes. Bonds are intervals. Molecular structure/isomers are harmony/inversions. Reactions and mechanisms are harmonic progressions. And at the end, you get to be creative depending on what your goal and vision is.

Organic chemistry is like lego, only this time you use the buildingblocks of the universe.

(that’s the main sentence but view it as you like, lego has specific bonding sides, different type of “bonding”. Some pieces fit, some pieces don’t fit the structure)

But when I read this article I realized that I don’t need to memorize all the names of the organic compound. From now on I will understand and analyze every topic not memorize it all to get higher marks. This article is a great help for a Chemistry student like me. :)
