  3. Hydrocarbons Chemical compounds containing only C and H Alkanes A class of linear hydrocarbons with no double bonds Formula: CnH(2n+2) Alkanes are nonpolar compounds C & H are close in electronegativity (2.5 vs. 2.1) bonds are nonpolar covalent small or no dipole moment insoluble in water (like dissolves like)

  7. Naming alkanes that have branched chains and/or substituents Name of alkane corresponding to longest chain Alkanes as substituents – replace ‘ane’ with yl - CH3 methyl - CH2 - CH3 ethyl - CH2 - CH2- CH3proply - CH2 - CH2- CH2 - CH3butyl etc. Other substituents halides: - F (fluoro) - Cl(chloro) etc. - OH (hydroxy) etc.

  8. Naming alkanes that have branched chains and/or substituents Rules CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – CH – CH3 | Cl 1. Identify the parent (longest) chain 2. Identify the substituent(s) 3. Assign a number to each substituent based on where it is located on the parent chain. Proceed in the direction that gives the lowest number 2-chloropentane

  11. Isomers Sets of molecules with the same molecular formula …. that are not identical Structural isomers – Have different atom connectivity (or arrangement) Cis-trans isomers – Have the same connectivity but differ in 2D orientation typically in molecules with double bonds or rings Optical isomers – Have the same connectivity but differ in 3D orientation optical isomers have “chiral” carbon – bonded to 4 distinct groups

  12. Isomers Sets of molecules with the same molecular formula …. that are not identical Structural isomers – Have different atom connectivity (or arrangement) Butane - C4H10

  13. Hydrocarbons Chemical compounds containing only C and H Alkenes A class of hydrocarbons with a double bond Formula: CnH(2n) Ethene (or ethylene) CH2 = CH2 Draw the Lewis dot structure for ethylene Describe the molecular geometry around each C Draw the structure with as accurate a geometry as possible.

  14. Propene CH2 = CH – CH3 1-butene CH2 = CH – CH2 – CH3 2-butene CH3 - CH = CH – CH3 Structural isomers – Have different atom connectivity (or arrangement) Are 1-butene and 2-butene structural isomers? Cis-trans isomers – Have the same connectivity but differ in 2D orientation typically in molecules with double bonds or rings Draw the Lewis dot structure for 2-butene Describe the molecular geometry around the C = C carbons. Draw the structure with as accurate a geometry as possible.

H - C ≡ C - H Can you have cis-trans isomerism around a triple bond? a) Yes b) No

  17. Benzene and aromatic hydrocarbons Toluene or methylbenzene 2,4,6 – trinitrotoluene TNT

  18. Hydrocarbons Alkanes Alkene contain C=C double bond Alkynes contain C≡C triple bond Aromatic contains ring with multiple double bonds - delocalized Functional Groups Organic Molecules often contain atoms other than C and H. Most common are bonds to O and N. Specific arrangements atoms are referred to as Functional groups. This is because they give molecules various functions. Most cellular molecules are organic molecules containing one or more functional groups.

  19. Functional Groups Alcohols - OH (hydroxyl group) R – OH R represents any hydrocarbon chain CH3 - OH methanol or methyl alcohol CH3 – CH2 – OH ethanol or ethyl alcohol OH 2-hydroxypropane or isopropanol or isopropyl alcohol a secondary alcohol rubbing alcohol is typically a 70% solution of IPA in water

  20. Functional Groups O || CH3 - C - H O || - C - Aldehydes and Ketones Formaldehyde acetaldehydeacetone O || CH3 - C – CH3 O || R - C - H O || R - C - R' O || H - C - H The combination of alcohols with aldehydes or ketones is found in sugar molecules (with a little twist!)

  26. 4.5 Isomerism in Organic Compounds • A right-handed and a left-handed baseball glove are nonsuperimposable mirror images. • Objects such as these are termed chiral (from the Greek cheir, meaning “the hand”). • Most enantiomers contain a chiral center—a tetrahedral carbon atom bonded to four different atoms or groups of atoms.

  27. 4.5 Isomerism in Organic Compounds • On paper, a chiral carbon is represented with an asterisk.

  28. 4.5 Isomerism in Organic Compounds Identifying Chiral Carbons in a Molecule • Step 1: Locate the tetrahedral carbons (carbons with four atoms bonded to them). • Step 2:Inspect the tetrahedral carbons. Determine if the four groups attached to the tetrahedral carbons are different. • Step 3:Assign the chiral centers. Typically, an asterisk is drawn next to the chiral carbon.

  31. Distinguishing Properties of Enantiomers optical isomers that are mirror images of each other 1.They can’t be superimposed 2. They rotate plane polarized light in different directions 3. They react differently in a chiral environment!

  35. Chapter Four Summary (continued) • 4.3 Families of Compounds—Functional Groups • Organic compounds are grouped into families based on the identity of the functional group(s) present. • A functional group is a common grouping of atoms bonded in a particular way. • Functional groups have specific properties and reactivity. Compounds with the same functional group behave similarly. • Since the functional group is the part of the molecule that is of interest, we typically represent the hydrocarbon portion as R (the Rest of the molecule). • The hydrocarbon families the alkenes, alkynes, and aromatics are highlighted in this section. • Fatty acids are alkane-like biomolecules that are the primary components of dietary fats. Fatty acids with a carbon–carbon double bond in their structure are referred to as unsaturated, while those without a double bond are referred to as saturated.
