2. ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

3. Organic Chemistry Study of carbon and carbon compounds Organic compounds contain carbon atoms which covalently bond to each other in chains, rings, and networks to form a variety of structures

4. General Characteristics of Organic Compounds Nonpolar Soluble in nonpolar solvents / insoluble in polar solvents (water) “Like dissolves Like” Poor conductors of heat and electricity –Exception: aqueous organic acids conduct Low melting and boiling points React slower than inorganic compounds –High activation energies

5. Molecular Formulas –Indicates the kind and number of atoms of each element in the compound –Example: C 2 H 6 Empirical Formulas –Reduced formula, in lowest terms –Example: What is the empirical formula for C 4 H 10

6. Structural Formulas –Attempts to show the bonding patterns and approximate shapes –Ex: Condensed Structural Formulas –Shows the connections without showing the shape and bonds –Ex:

7. Bonding Carbon- has 4 valence electrons, needs 4 more, forms 4 bonds Oxygen – has 6 valence electrons, needs 2 more, forms 2 bonds Hydrogen – has 1 valence electron, needs 1 more, forms 1 bond Halogens (group 17) – has 7 valence electrons, needs 1 more, forms 1 bond

8. Homologous Series (Families) Group of related compound in which each member has one more group –Ex: CH 3 CH 2 CH 3 and CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 Members of a group will have similar structures and properties As the members of a series increase in mass, their boiling (and melting) points increase – due to increased intermolecular forces

9. Hydrocarbons Organic compounds that contain only CARBON and HYDROGEN ALKANES... SINGLE bonds between Carbons Saturated hydrocarbon C x H 2x+2 ONE TRIPLE bond between two Carbons Unsaturated Hydrocarbon ONE DOUBLE bond between two Carbons Unsaturated hydrocarbon C x H 2x C x H 2x-2 ALKYNES... ALKENES... Family Name

11. …counting the CARBONS PREFIXES

12. ALKANES Contain all single bonds Naming: carbon prefix + -ane Example: Ethane Octane Butane C 4 H 10

13. ALKENES Contain 1 double bond Naming: carbon prefix + -ene –A number is used in front to indicate the location of the double bond –If a number is not indicated the double bond comes after the 1 st carbon Example: 2-Pentene

14. Diene Contains 2 double bonds Naming: location-carbon prefix-diene Example: 1,3-pentadiene Propadiene C 3 H 4

15. ALKYNES Contains 1 triple bond Naming: carbon prefix + -yne Example: Ethyne Ethyne Propyne

16. Saturated Compounds – contains all single carbon-carbon bonds Unsaturated Compounds – contains at least multiple carbon-carbon bond

17. Branched Hydrocarbons Contain 1 or more branches off the main chain 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Methyl group on carbon 4 4-methyl-ocatane

18. Naming Branched Hydrocarbons Find the longest continuous chain, name it To name the branches: number of carbons + “-yl” –Examples: CH 3 = methyl CH 2 CH 3 = ethyl The location of the alkyl (branched group) is indicated –If there is more than one of the same branch, use prefixes (di, tri, tetra, …) –The carbon chain must be numbered from the end that will give the lowest numbers for the branches Example: 2, 2, 3 – trimethyl pentane

19. SAME…BUT DIFFERENT 2 CARBONS 6 HYDROGENS 1 OXYGEN ETHANOL a primary alcohol DIMETHYL ETHER C 2 H 5 OH CH 3 OCH 3 Same – number and type of atoms Different – structure and name  Have different physical and chemical properties
