Carbon Compounds What does it mean to be organic? Organic compounds- compounds containing CARBON Carbon >contains 4 valence e - > can form 4 covalent bonds with itself or other elements

Large carbon compounds (analogy= necklace) Monomers are simple carbon molecules. Ex. Link in necklace Polymers are molecules made of many monomers. (monomer + monomer = polymer) Ex. Whole necklace Macromolecules are made of many polymers (polymer + polymer = macromolecule) Ex. Multi chain necklace

How do Monomers link to form Polymers??? …through condensation reactions (called dehydration synthesis) Dehydration synthesis- chemical reaction in which one monomer donates a hydroxyl (OH-) and the other monomer donates a hydrogen (H) forming water (H 2 O)

Hydrolysis – reverse process of dehydrations synthesis or a condensation reaction. (Breakdown of complex mol.)

Complete this Dehydration Synthesis Reaction + Answer: + H 2 0

Do Now What is the element found in all organic compounds? –Carbon What is the process called that links two monomers together to form a polymer? –Dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction What is removed during the above process? –Water

Organic Compounds  There are 4 main classes of organic compounds which are essential to the life processes of all living things.  Carbohydrates  Proteins  Lipids  Nucleic Acids

I. Carbohydrates  Elements: C, H, O in 1:2:1 ratio (double hydrogen)  Monosaccharides –monomer of carbs like sugars  Main fuel provider and energy source of living things, used for structures in cells

Polysaccharides  Polymer made of 3 or more monosaccharides  Ex. 1. Glycogen (animal starch)  Excess sugar (glycogen) is released from liver when your blood sugar runs low 2. Cellulose (in plants)  Tough, flexible (found in cell wall)  gives plants rigidity & strength.

II. Proteins  Elements: C, H, O, N and sometimes sulfur  Monomer = Amino Acids (20 kinds)  For building bones and muscles, as well as cell membranes and enzymes  Foods- Fish, poultry, soy, beans

Proteins  Proteins are made of monomers of amino acids  Dipeptides – 2 Amino Acids  Polypeptides- chain of Amino Acids  Enzymes = polypeptides  Peptide Bonds links amino acids together

III. Lipids  Elements: C, H (in high ratio) & O  Monomer = 1 glycerol + 3 fatty acids  Used to store energy. Important part in biological membranes and waterproof covering  Ex. Fats, oils, waxes –Fatty acids –Complex Lipids  NOT water soluble (do NOT dissolve in water)

Fatty Acids 1.Fatty acids – unbranched fatty acid chain makes up most lipids a)Saturated fatty acids have each C always bonded to four other atoms. Max # of Hydrogen atoms b)Unsaturated fatty acids have double/triple bonds between carbons.

Phospholipid Open your textbooks to page 45. Draw Figure 3.5 phospholipid. Label the head and the tail. 1.How would the polar head of a phospholipid respond to water molecules? 2.How would the nonpolar tails respond to water molecules?

IV. Nucleic Acids  Composed of C, H, O, N and P  Monomer = Nucleotide made of 3 components 1. phosphate group 2. 5-carbon sugar 3. Nitrogen base  Store important information for the cell  Ex. DNA  cellular information RNA  stores/transfers information to make proteins
