These two compounds are structural
isomers, which would have the lower
boiling point?
Alkyl Halides
-hydrocarbons that contain a halogen
atom
-the halogen atom is named like an alkyl
group
F
Cl
Br
I

Rules for Naming
Number the parent chain so that the
carbons with the halogens have the lowest
possible number
If there are two or more of the same
halogen use a prefix to indicate this
If there are different halogens present, list
them alphabetically
Physical Properties of Alkyl Halides
-the C-Cl bond and C-F bond are polar
-if the molecule is polar (i.e. - the polar bonds don't cancel
out, then the melting point, boiling point and solubility will
be affected
-a non-polar alkyl halide will have increased London Forces
compared to an alkane with the same number of carbons,
because London Forces are increased

Which will be more soluble in water: CH3Cl or CCl4?

Carboxylic Acids
Contain a carboxyl group
Condensed formula is R-COOH or R-CO2H
Rules for Naming
Find the longest carbon chain with the carboxyl group (carboxyl carbon is always #1)
Take the alkane name of the root and change the –e to –oic acid (i.e. methanoic acid)
Branches are named as usual (remember to number starting with the functional group)

Draw 3-ethylpentanoic acid

Physical Properties of Carboxylic Acids
-carboxylic acids have 2 polar bonds and 1 H-bond
-this means that their melting and boiling points are
higher than alcohols and hydrocarbons
-solubility decreases as the carbon chain length
increases (because the carbon chain is non-polar)
-they are weak acids so their pH<7
Esters
Contain an ester functional group
Condensed structure would be

Esters form from the reaction of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid
CH3-OH
+
O
||
-C
HO -CH3
This is referred to as a condensation or dehydration reaction
November 27, 2014
Naming Esters
-the name of the ester is derived from the parent
alcohol and acid
-find the functional group and draw a line through
the middle of the functional group
Try these

Methyl methanoate

Esters are isomers of carboxylic acids
Draw an isomer of CH3CH2CH2COOH
