4.1 INTRODUCTION
Organic chemistry is the study of hydrocarbons and their derivatives. The derivatives are prepared by replacing one or more hydrogen atoms with suitable atoms and groups from the corresponding hydrocarbons. Thus hydrocarbons are the parents of organic compounds. The studies on the structures, methods of preparation and properties of hydrocarbons, being the basic units of organic compounds are very essential for further studies in this important branch of chemistry. Hydrocarbons are of mainly two types: saturated and unsaturated.    H single bonds only, whereas unsaturated hydrocarbons have carbon–carbon double bonds (     H bonds in them.
