Organic chemistry has a vital role to play in producing the physical feelings we experience when we fall in love. This article explores the interrelationships between various compounds, seeing how they are produced by enzymes that add or take away functional groups from a simple starting material. It also focuses on chirality (optical isomerism) and how chiral molecules can be represented on paper.
