  4. 9.2Nomenclature

  5. Acetylene and ethyne are both acceptableIUPAC names for HC CH HC CCH3 HC CCH2CH3 Propyne (CH3)3CC CCH3 Nomenclature Higher alkynes are named in much the sameway as alkenes except using an -yne suffixinstead of -ene. 1-Butyne 4,4-Dimethyl-2-pentyne

  6. 9.3Physical Properties of Alkynes The physical properties of alkynes are similar to those of alkanes and alkenes.

  9. Cyclononyne is the smallest cycloalkyne stable enough to be stored at room temperaturefor a reasonable length of time. Cyclooctyne polymerizeson standing.

  10. Bonding in acetylene is based on sp-hybridizationfor each carbon Mix together (hybridize) the 2s orbital and one of the three 2p orbitals 2p 2p 2sp 2s

  11. Bonding in acetylene is based on sp-hybridizationfor each carbon Mix together (hybridize) the 2s orbital and one of the three 2p orbitals 2p Each carbon has two half-filled sp orbitalsavailable to form s bonds. 2sp

  12. s Bonds in Acetylene Each carbon isconnected to ahydrogen by as bond. The twocarbons are connectedto each other by as bond and two p bonds.

  13. p Bonds in Acetylene One of the twop bonds in acetylene isshown here.The second pbond is at rightangles to the first.

  14. p Bonds in Acetylene This is the secondof the twop bonds in acetylene.

  15. The region of highest negative charge encirclesthe molecule around itscenter in acetylene. The region of highest negative charge lies aboveand below the molecular plane in ethylene.
