Organic Chemistry Chapter 20 Structure Determines Properties • Organic compounds all contain carbon • • • – CO, CO2 , carbonates and carbides are inorganic – Other common elements are H, O, N, (P, S) Carbon has versatile bonding patterns – Chains, rings, multiple bonds – Chain length nearly limitless Carbon compounds generally covalent – Molecular; Gases, liquids or low melting solids; Varying solubilities; Nonconductive in liquid C - C bonds unreactive (very stable) Carbon Bonding • Carbon can bond to other carbon atoms in an almost infinite chain • Bond to a maximum of four other atoms - Carbon Carbon Carbon Carbon or other elements with 4 single covalent bonds = tetrahedral with 2 single & 1 double covalent bond = trigonal planar with 1 single & 1 triple covalent bond = linear Hydrocarbons • Hydrocarbons contain only C & H – Aliphatic or aromatic • Aliphatic hydrocarbons – – Saturated or unsaturated aliphatics • Saturated = alkanes, unsaturated = alkenes or alkynes • Unsaturated have double or triple bonds May be chains or rings • Ring molecules have two less H than chain so that ends can join • Chains may be straight or branched Alkanes • a.k.a paraffins • Aliphatic • General formula CnH2n+2 for chains • Very unreactive • Come in chains or/and rings – CH3 groups at ends of chains, CH2 groups in the middle • Saturated • Branched or Straight-Chain – Straight-chain = normal – Condensed formula has CH3 on each end and CH2 in middle Condensed Structural Formulas • • • attached atoms listed in order – central atom with attached atoms follow normal bonding patterns – use to determine position of multiple bonds () used to indicate more than 1 identical group attached to same previous central atom – unless () group listed first in which case attached to next central atom Structural Isomers • • Isomers are molecules with the same molecular formula but different arrangements of the atoms – Different chemical and physical properties Structural isomers are isomers in which the atoms are attached differently – – – Different bonding pattern Different properties a.k.a constitutional isomers Naming • Each name consist of 3 parts 1. prefix • indicates position, number and type of branches • indicates position, number and type of each functional group 2. parent • indicates the length of the longest carbon chain or ring 3. suffix • indicates the type of hydrocarbon such as- ane, ene, yne • certain functional groups Naming Alkanes • • The first 4 alkanes are methane (C1), ethane (C2), propane (C3), butane (C4) After that the names come from adding Greek prefix to –ane Naming Alkanes Find the longest, continuous carbon chain Number the chain from end closest to a branch – if first branches equal distance use next in Name branches as alkyl groups – Branch name related to number of C – End in -yl – locate each branch by preceding its name with the carbon number on the chain List branches alphabetically – do not count n-, sec-, t-, count iso Use prefix if more than one of same group present – di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa – do not count in alphabetizing Petroleum • Formed when ocean microorganisms died 500 million year ago, were buried, and • • • subjected to large pressures A dark, thick liquid composed mainly of hydrocarbons Natural gas normally found with petroleum deposits – Mostly methane with some ethane, propane and butane Petroleum separated into various fractions by distillation – Separation based on boiling point Alkane Reactions • Combustion • Substitution • Dehydrogenation Alkenes • Also known as olefins • Aliphatic, unsaturated • Formula of chain alkenes - subtract 2 H from alkane formula for each double bond • C=C double bonds • Trigonal shape around C • Flat • No rotation • Cis - trans isomerism • Much more reactive than alkanes • Polyunsaturated = many double bonds Reactions of Alkenes Naming Alkenes • change suffix on main name from -ane to -ene • number from end closest to double bond • number in front of main name indicates first carbon of double bond Naming Alkynes • change suffix on main name from -ane to -yne • number from end closest to triple bond • number in front of main name indicates first carbon of triple bond Alkynes • Also known as acetylenes • Aliphatic, unsaturated • Formula of chain alkynes - subtract 4 H from alkane for each triple bond • C-C triple bond • Linear shape • No rotation • More reactive than alkenes Aromatics • Contain 1 or more 6 C unsaturated rings – Benzene rings • Chemical reactions different than alkenes – Burn sooty instead of clean – Undergo substitution instead of addition • Benzene – Liquid, BP = 80°C – All C-C bond lengths and bond angles identical • 120° • Bond lengths between C-C and C=C – Planar molecule – Resonance hybrid Naming Benzene Derivatives • main name either benzene or one of the common derivatives • ring numbered from position of main group or • 2 = ortho (o), 3 = meta (m), 4 = para (p) Functional Groups • In many organic compounds, C-to-H bonds are replaced by bonds to other atoms – C-Halogen, C-to-O, C-to-N, occasionally (C-to-S) • These compounds are generally considered hydrocarbon derivatives – Basically hydrocarbons with a few substitutions • These substituted bonds are more reactive than C-H bonds • Therefore, when molecules with the substituted bonds react, the reaction site is generally at the substituted bonds • These substituted atoms or groups of atoms are called functional groups, and they generally determine the chemical reactions an organic molecule will undergo – And also have influences on intermolecular attractions and therefore physical properties Alcohols • Have an –OH group in place of a H • Form H-bonds – To alcohol molecules and water • Solubility in water decreases as length of carbon chain increases • Common reactions include substitution for OH, elimination, oxidation Classifying Carbons • • • • • • Carbons in an organic molecule are classified based on the number of other carbons they are attached to Primary Carbon, 1°, = carbon attached to one other carbon Secondary Carbon, 2°, = carbon attached to 2 other carbons Tertiary Carbon, 3°, = carbon attached to 3 other carbons Quaternary Carbon, 4°, = carbon attached to 4 other carbons, Very unreactive Hydrogens are classified based on carbon they are attached to – The hydrogens on a 1° carbon are called 1° hydrogens Classifying Alcohols • alcohols are classified based on the carbon they are attached to • Primary Alcohol, 1°, = OH group on 1° C • Secondary Alcohol, 2°, = OH group on 2° C • Tertiary Alcohol, 3°, = OH group on 3° C Aldehydes and Ketones • Both contain C=O, carbonyl group • In ketones, the carbonyl group is attached to 2 carbon atoms • – In middle of a chain or ring In aldehydes, the carbonyl group is attached to a carbon and a hydrogen – – Or 2 H in the case of formaldehyde Must be on the end of a chain Ketones • Often used as polar solvent when presence of OH cause problems • Acetone – R1 = R2 = CH3 – Nail polish remover, paint solvent • MEK = methyl ethyl ketone – R1= CH3, R2 = CH2CH3 – Paint solvent, gasoline additive Aldehydes • Often strong odors, Used as fragrances and food additives • Formaldehyde – R1 = R2 = H • Gas, when dissolved in water = formalin Suspected carcinogen Used in the production of foams and adhesives Acetaldehyde – R1 = H, R2= CH3 Naming Aldehydes • Select the longest chain of carbon atoms containing the aldehyde group • Number the chain calling the carbonyl C position 1 • Determine the parent name from the number of C in the chain, replace final -e with -al • Name alkyl branches as usual Naming Ketones • Select the longest chain of carbon atoms containing the carbonyl group • Number the chain from the end closest to the carbonyl group • Determine the parent name from the number of C in the chain, replace the final -e with one • Name alkyl branches as usual Carboxylic Acids • Have carboxyl group, R1-COOH • Always on end of chain • Acid functional group, a weak acid • Made by oxidation of 1° alcohols – under stronger conditions • Formic Acid, R1 = H, as in bee and ant stings • Acetic Acid, R1 = CH3 (vinegar) Esters • Replace acid H of carboxy group with R group, R1-COOR2 • Sweet, fruity odors • Made by reacting carboxylic acid with an alcohol – R1-COOH + R2-OH R1-COOR2 + H2O Not like neutralization, alcohol not a base!
