16.2Structure and BondinginEthers and Epoxides bent geometry at oxygen analogousto water and alcohols
O C(CH3)3 (CH3)3C Bond angles at oxygen are sensitiveto steric effects O O H H CH3 H 105° 108.5° O CH3 CH3 112° 132°
An oxygen atom affects geometry in much thesame way as a CH2 group most stable conformation of diethyl etherresembles pentane
An oxygen atom affects geometry in much thesame way as a CH2 group most stable conformation of tetrahydropyranresembles cyclohexane
Ethers resemble alkanes more than alcoholswith respect to boiling point boiling point Intermolecular hydrogenbonding possible in alcohols; not possible in alkanes or ethers. 36°C 35°C O 117°C OH
