1. Organic Chemistry Introduction Functional Groups Alkanes Alkenes Alkynes Alcohols Acids, Esters and Amides

2. Introduction Organic chemistry is the study of carbon- containing compounds The field of organic chemistry is very important for a wide variety of reasons. A huge number of carbon-containing compounds are known. Most of the advances in the pharmaceutical industry are based on a knowledge of organic chemistry. Life as we know it is based on organic chemistry.

3. Introduction Most organic compounds have a “skeleton” that is composed of C-C bonds. The C-C bonds may be single bonds, double bonds, or triple bonds. Carbon forms a total of 4 bonds. The “skeleton” of an organic compound has H’s attached to it. other “heteroatoms” like O, halogens, N, S, and P may be present as well

4. Introduction Some familiar organic compounds: methane acetylene acetone propane

5. Introduction Some familiar organic compounds: Acetic acid Ethyl alcohol “ether” aspirin

6. Introduction Organic compounds are commonly classified and named based on the type of functional group present. An atom or group of atoms that influences the way the molecule functions, reacts or behaves. The center of reactivity in an organic compound

7. Functional Groups On your exam, you will be responsible for recognizing and naming the various common functional groups that are found in organic compounds: Use Table 25.4 and the following slides to help you study

8. Functional Groups Class of CompoundFunctional Group Alkane None Cycloalkane None Alkyl halide Alkene Alkyne Alcohol Ether

9. Functional Groups Class of CompoundFunctional Group Aldehyde Ketone Carboxylic Acid Ester

10. Functional Groups Class of CompoundFunctional Group Amine Amide Nitrile Aromatic ring

11. Alkanes Contain C-C single bonds no functional group Tetrahedral electron domain geometry sp 3 hybridized carbons Free rotation around single bonds propane

12. Cycloalkanes Contain C – C with at least 3 of the carbons arranged in a cyclic (ring) structure No functional group Tetrahedral sp 3 hybrid orbitals

14. Alkenes Contain C=C (carbon-carbon double bonds) 1 sigma bond & 1 pi bond Trigonal planar geometry sp 2 hybridized carbons Which atoms must be coplanar in an alkene? 1-propene

15. Alkenes The C=C present in an alkene is composed of 1 sigma (  ) bond and 1 pi (  ) bond. Double bonds are rigid and cannot rotate freely. Rotation would cause loss of overlap of the p orbitals, destroying the  bond. ethylene

18. Functional Groups Alkanes are often called saturated hydrocarbons Organic compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen that contain the largest possible number of hydrogen atoms per carbon atom. Alkenes, alkynes, and aromatic hydrocarbons are called unsaturated hydrocarbons Organic compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen that contain less hydrogen than an alkane having the same number of carbon atoms

34. Alkanes Some of the simplest alkanes: You must know these!!!

35. Alkanes Some of the simplest alkanes: You must know these!!!

36. Alkanes The previous alkanes are also called straight- chain hydrocarbons: all of the carbon atoms are joined in a continuous chain Alkanes containing 4 or more carbons can also form branched-chain hydrocarbons (branched hydrocarbons) some of the carbon atoms form a “branch” or side-chain off of the main chain

37. Alkanes An example of a straight chain hydrocarbon: C 5 H 12 CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 pentane Examples of a branched hydrocarbon: C 5 H 12 CH 3 CHCH 2 CH 3 CH 3 CH 3 CH 3 CCH 3 CH 3 2-methylbutane 2,2-dimethylpropane

38. Alkanes The three structures shown previously for C 5 H 12 are structural isomers: compounds with the same molecular formula but different bonding arrangements Structural isomers generally have different properties: different melting points different boiling points often different chemical reactivity

39. Alkanes Organic compounds can be named either using common names or IUPAC names. You must be able to name alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and alcohols with 10 or fewer carbons in the main chain using the IUPAC naming system.

40. Alkanes Alkane Nomenclature: Find the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms and use the name of the chain for the base name of the compound: longest chain may not always be written in a straight line CH 3 - CH - CH 3 CH 2 - CH 2 - CH 2 - CH 3 1 2 3 456 Base name: hexane

41. Alkanes Alkane Nomenclature: Number the carbon atoms in the longest chain beginning with the end of the chain closest to a substituent groups attached to the main chain that have taken the place of a hydrogen atom on the main chain CH 3 - CH - CH 3 CH 2 - CH 2 - CH 2 - CH 3 1 2 3 456 A substituent

42. Alkanes Alkane Nomenclature: Name and give the location of each substituent group A substituent group that is formed by removing an H atom from an alkane is called an alkyl group: Name alkyl groups by dropping the “ane” ending of the parent alkane and adding “yl”

43. Alkanes Alkane Nomenclature: Common alkyl groups (substituents): CH 3 methyl CH 3 CH 2 ethyl CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 propyl CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 butyl 2-methylhexane CH 3 - CH - CH 3 CH 2 - CH 2 - CH 2 - CH 3 1 2 3 456 Know these!

44. Alkanes Alkane Nomenclature: Halogen atoms are another common class of substituents. Name halogen substituents as “halo”: Clchloro Brbromo Iiodo Ffluoro

45. Alkanes Alkane Nomenclature: When two or more substituents are present, list them in alphabetical order: Butyl vs. ethyl vs. methyl vs. propyl When more than one of the same substituent is present (i.e. two methyl groups), use prefixes to indicate the number: Di = two Tri = three Tetra = four Penta = five Know these.

46. Alkanes Example: Name the following compounds: CH 3 CH 2 CHCH 2 CH 3 CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 CH 3 CHCHCH 3 CH 3

47. Alkanes Example: Name the following compounds: CH 3 CH 2 CHCH 3 CH 2 CH 2 Br CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 CH 3 CHCHCH 3 Cl

48. Alkanes You must also be able to write the structure of an alkane when given the IUPAC name. To do so: Identify the main chain and draw the carbons in it Identify the substituents (type and #) and attach them to the appropriate carbon atoms on the main chain. Add hydrogen atoms to the carbons to make a total of 4 bonds to each carbon

49. Alkanes Example: Write the condensed structure for the following compounds: 3, 3-dimethylpentane 3-ethyl-2-methylhexane 2-methyl-4-propyloctane 1, 2-dichloro-3-methylheptane

50. Alkenes Alkenes: unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain a C=C double bond Alkene Nomenclature: Names of alkenes are based on the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms that contains the double bond.

51. Alkenes Alkene Nomenclature Find the longest continuous carbon chain containing the double bond. Change the “ane” ending from the corresponding alkane to “ene” butanebutene propanepropene octaneoctene

52. Alkenes Alkene Nomenclature Indicate the location of the double bond using a prefix number designate the carbon atom that is part of the double bond AND nearest to the end of the chain Name all other substituents in a manner similar to the alkanes. Use a prefix to indicate the geometric isomer present, if necessary.

53. Alkenes Alkene Nomenclature Different geometric isomers are possible for many alkenes. Compounds that have the same molecular formula and the same groups bonded to each other, but different spatial arrangements of the groups cis isomer trans isomer

54. Alkenes Alkene Nomenclature Cis isomer: two identical groups (on adjacent carbons) on the same side of the C = C double bond Trans isomer: two identical groups (on adjacent carbons) on opposite sides of the C = C double bond

55. Alkene cis-2-butene CH 3 CH 3 C = C HH HH CH 3 H C = C HCH 3 HCH 3 trans-2-butene

56. Alkene For an alkene with the general formula AP C = C BQ cis and trans isomers are possible only if A = B and P = Q

57. Alkene Example: Name the following alkenes: CH 3 CH 2 H C = C HH CH 3 CH 2 H C = C CH 3 CHCH 2 CH 2 CH 3 CH 3

58. Alkenes Example: Draw the structures for the following compounds: 2-chloro-3-methyl-2-butene trans-3, 4-dimethyl-2-pentene cis-6-methyl-3-heptene

59. Alkynes Alkynes: unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain a C C triple bond Alkyne Nomenclature: Identify the longest continuous chain containing the triple bond To find the base name, change the ending of the corresponding alkane from “ane” to “yne”

60. Alkynes Alkyne Nomenclature: Use a number to designate the position of the triple bond number from the end of the chain closest to the triple bond just like with alkenes Name substituents like you do with alkanes and alkenes

61. Alkynes Example: Name the following compounds: CH 3 CH 2 C CCHCH 3 CH 2 CH 3 ClCH 2 CH 2 C CH

62. Alkynes Example: Draw the following alkynes. 4-chloro-2-pentyne 3-propyl-1-hexyne
