In spite of the fact that the number of known organic chemical compounds has now topped the 100 million mark, this enormous quantity can be categorized in a small number of classes with very similar characteristics. The functional groups of the most complex molecules are often the same, and a close look at the chemical principles quickly reveals that much is repeated with the slightest of changes. As soon as we have understood the fundamentals of organic chemical reactions, we can quickly grasp compounds. A good overview makes it much easier to study. Beyer / Walter can help.
