1435-1436 2014-2015 Alkenes Learning Objectives Chapter two discusses the following topics and the student by the end of this chapter will: Know the structure, hybridization and bonding of alkenes Know the common and IUPAC naming of alkenes Know the geometry of the double bond i.e. cis/trans isomerization Know the physical properties of alkenes Know the different methods used for preparation of alkenes (elimination reactions ; dehydrogenation, dehydration and alkenes stability (Zaitsev’s rule) play an important role in understanding these reactions Know the addition reactions of alkenes and the effect of Markovnikov’s rule in determining the regioselectivity of this reaction. Alkenes tructure Of Alkenes They are unsaturated hydrocarbons – made up of C and H atoms and contain one or more C=C double bond somewhere in their structures. Their general formula is CnH2n - for non-cyclic alkenes Their general formula is CnH2n-2 - for cyclic alkenes 3 Alkenes sp2 Hybridization Of Orbitals In Alkenes The electronic configuration of a carbon atom is 1s22s22p2 Thus 2s2 2s1 2p2 promotion 2p3 3 x sp2 hybridization Trigonal planar 2p Alkenes Orbital Overlap In Ethene In ethylene (ethene), each carbon atom use an sp2 orbital to form a single C-C bond. Because of the two sp2 orbitals overlap by endto- end the resulting bond is called σ bond. The pi (π) bond between the two carbon atoms is formed by side- by-side overlap of the two unhybridized p- orbitals (2p–2p ) for maximum overlap and hence the strongest bond, the 2p orbitals are in line and perpendicular to the molecular plane. This gives rise to the planar arrangement around C=C bonds. Also s orbitals of hydrogen atoms overlap with the sp2 orbitals in carbon atoms to form two C-H bonds with each carbon atom. The resulting shape of ethene molecule is planar with bond angles of 120º and C=C bond length is 1.34 Å 5 Alkenes Orbital Overlap In Ethene sp2 hybridized carbon atoms two 2p orbitals overlap to form a pi bond between the two carbon atoms 6 two sp2 orbitals overlap to form a sigma bond between the two carbon atoms s orbitals in hydrogen atoms overlap with the sp2 orbitals in carbon atoms to form C-H bonds the resulting shape is planar with bond angles of 120º and C=C (1.34 Å) Alkenes Nomencalture Of Alkenes And Cycloalkenes 1.

IUPAC Nomenclature Of Alkenes Find the longest continuous Carbon chain containing the double bond this determines the root name then add the suffix -ene. Number the C- chain from the end that is nearer to the double bond. Indicate the location of the double bond by using the number of the first atom of the double bond just before the suffix ene or as a prefix. 1 H2C 2 3 4 CH CH2CH3 But-1-ene or 1-Butene (not 3-Butene) 1 2 CH3CH 3 4 5 6 CHCH2CH2CH3 Hex-2-ene or 2-Hexene (not 4-Hexene) Indicate the positions of the substituents using numbers of carbon atoms to which they are bonded and write their names in alphabetical order (N.B. discard the suffixes tert-, di, tri,---when alphabetize the substituents) and if more than one substituent of the same type are present use the prefixes di- or tri or tetra or penta,--- to indicate their numbers. 8 Alkenes 8 Cl 7 1 4 6 2 5 H3 C 1 6 4 C 2 CH 3 Br 1 3 CH3-CH2-CH2-CH=CH-C-CH3 6 7 5 4 3 2 1 Br OCH3 = (CH3CHCHCH2OCH3) 2 CH3 1-Methoxy-but-2-ene (not 4-Methoxy-but-2-ene) 2,2-Dibromo-3-heptene (not 6,6-Dibromo-4-heptene) 1 2 1 3 5 4 CH3 4 2-Methyl-but-2-ene or 2-Methyl-2-butene (not 3-Methyl-2-butene) 1CH 3 3-Chloro-2-hexene (not 2-Chloro-1-methyl-1-pentene) 6-Methyl-2-octene 4 5 3 2 3 CH3 6 7 9 8 2,3,7-Trimethyl-non-3-ene (not 2-Isopropyl-6-methyl--2-octene) 3 2 5-Methylcyclopenta-1,3-diene An ''a'' is added due to inclusion of di put two consonants consecutive 3 2 1 5 4 CN 4-Cyano-2-ethyl-1-pentene (not 2-Ethyl-4-cyano-1-pentene) Alkenes In cycloalkenes the double bond carbons are assigned ring locations #1 and #2.

Thus it said the reaction proceeded according to Markovnikov’s rule Markovnikov’s rule stats that : In addition of unsymmetrical reagent to unsymmetrical alkenes the positive ion adds to the carbon of the alkene that bears the greater number of hydrogen atoms and the negative ion adds to the other carbon of the alkene.
