An organic compound is any member of a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon. For historical reasons discussed below, a few types of compounds such as carbonates, simple oxides of carbon and cyanides, as well as the allotropes of carbon, are considered inorganic. The division between "organic" and "inorganic" carbon compounds while "useful in organizing the vast subject of chemistry... is somewhat arbitrary".

Organic chemistry is the science concerned with all aspects of organic compounds. Organic synthesis is the methodology of their preparation.

What is the name of an organic compound with molecular formula C4O3?
Q. I need help with organic nomenclature. I'm trying to figure out the name of a compound that contains 3 oxygens (2 of which are part of carbonyl groups) and 1 C=C double bond. The molecule has a ring structure.
Asked by Doug - Sat Jun 16 18:44:20 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. the onlything I could make out of C4O3 is trimember ring of C atoms with 2 oxygens attached to two of them by double bond, 3rd carbon has double bond to the fourth carbon which is in turn connected to the third oxygen with double bond, hope this is understandable and the name would be cyclopropadionyl ketene
