CHAPTER 4: CARBON CHEMISTRY
 Organic
chemistry studies carbon
compounds; the backbone of biological
macromolecules
 When C forms four covalent bonds, its
hybrid orbitals create a tetrahedral shape.
 When 2 C’s are joined by a double bond, a
flat molecule forms
 The
electron configuration of carbon gives it
covalent compatibility with many different
elements.

What are some possibilities of molecules or compounds
that could form with the following molecules?

CARBON BONDING
 Carbons
readily bond with each other;
they form single, double, triple, or
quadruple bonds

ISOMERS
 Isomers:
compounds with same molecular
formula but different structures & properties
1. Structural: differ in covalent arrangements of
atoms or double bond locations
2. Geometric (stereoisomers): differ in spatial
arrangements; have cis and trans arrangements
3. Enantiomers: mirror-image molecules
(a) Structural isomers

MORE ON GEOMETRIC ISOMERS
Cis isomer: has non-hydrogen atoms attached to
double bonded carbons on the same side of the
double bond.
 Trans isomer has these atoms on opposite sides of
the double bond

THALIDOMIDE:
--CONTAINS BOTH LEFT- AND RIGHTHANDED ISOMERS IN EQUAL AMOUNTS.
--THE (R) ENANTIOMER IS EFFECTIVE
AGAINST MORNING SICKNESS. THE (S)
CAUSES BIRTH DEFECTS.
--THE ENANTIOMERS CAN
INTERCONVERT
 Enantiomers
: L-Dopa is a drug used to treat
Parkinson’s…the drug’s enantiomer has no
effect on patients.

FUNCTIONAL GROUPS
 Functional
groups are
the parts of molecules
involved in
chemical reactions
 They are the
chemically reactive
groups of atoms
within an organic
molecule
 Give organic
molecules distinctive

A hydrogen atom is bonds
to an oxygen atom, which
in turn is bonded to the
carbon skeleton of the
organic molecule. (Do not
confuse this functional
group with the hydroxide
–
ion, OH .)
O
The carbonyl group
( CO) consists of a
carbon atom joined to
an oxygen atom by a
double bond.

When an oxygen atom is
double-bonded to a carbon
atom that is also bonded to a
hydroxyl group, the entire
assembly of atoms is called a
carboxyl group (—COOH).

bonded to the carbon
skeleton; two oxygens
carry negative charges;
abbreviated P .
