Actually the number of carbon compounds is many times more than the compounds formed by all other elements found on the Earth's Crust. Carbon is a comparatively small atom and has four available valence electrons. That means it wants to 'share' these electrons with other atoms to form covalent bonds.

This Property is maximum in carbon as it can combine with other carbon atoms by single, double or triple Covalent Bonds.
The bonding can be extended to form long open chain (straight or branched) or closed ones.
Catenation property depends upon the value of bond energy which is maximum the case of carbon
