17


Hydrocarbons Alkanes are defined as saturated

compounds. All singles bond to carbon Cannot add more hydrogen atoms

Alkenes and alkynes are unsaturated compounds. Alkenes have double bonds and H atoms

can be added to the double bond to create a saturated compound.

Alkynes have triple bonds and H atoms can be added to create a saturated compound.

CH2=CHCH3 + H2 CH3CH2CH318


Aromaticity- Characterized by conjugated bonds in a ring

such as benzene.

- π electrons are delocalized over the ring

- Leads to greater stability than expected

- Properties are different than those of other hydrocarbon families

- Polycyclic examples:

napthalene anthracene


Hydrocarbon NomenclatureRules for naming alkanes

Established by IUPAC

1. Name ends in “-ane”2. Complete name uses that of parent compound with constituent groups added.

3. Parent is longest continuous carbon chain.

4. Name of longest chain based on the number of carbons.

5. Carbon atoms are numbered starting at the end that gives the lowest number for the

first branch.20


Straight Chained Alkanes

21


Alkyl GroupsAlkane type groups added to parent chain are known as alkyl groups. Consist of alkane, minus one H atom. Name always ends in –yl

Example

CH4 : now remove one H which yields –CH3

Naming of –CH3

Start with parent name, which is methane

Drop –ane and add –yl So methane becomes methyl group

22


Alkyl Groups CH3CH2CH3 yields –CH2CH2CH3 when one H

atom is removed from the end carbon. The name of the aryl group is propyl. Note, you can have another isomer of propyl.

The other isomer’s aryl group is 1-methylethyl, or isopropyl, and is created when the H atom is removed from the non-terminal carbon.

23


Nomenclature6. Aryl groups names are prefixed to parent name.

7. Multiple aryl groups on a parent are numbered and named alphabetically.

8. When there are multiple identical groups add di, tri, tetra to the aryl name.

9. If multiple, identical aryl groups are attached to the same carbon repeat the carbon number.

24


ExamplesWhat is the name of the compound

shown?

1. The longest carbon chain (parent) is four. Parent name is butane.

2. Start numbering from the left to get the smallest number for the attached group.

25


Examples3. The attached alkyl group is a methyl

group. Thus, the correct name is:

2-methylbutane

What is the name of the following compound?

26


Examples The parent chain contains five carbons. Thus, the parent name is pentane. Number from the left to obtain the smallest

number for the first alkyl group.

The alkyl groups are at the 2 and 3 positions. The 2 and 3 positions each contain a methyl

group.27


Examples Thus, the correct name is: 2,3-dimethylpentane

Let’s consider an alkane with two substituents on the same carbon.

28


Examples The parent chain is six carbons long. The lowest correct numbering of positions

is shown below.

There are methyl and ethyl groups attached to carbon 3.

29

Chemical Properties of Alkanes Alkanes are relatively unreactive

Not reactive in conc. NaOH or H2SO4 at room temperature.

React with hot HNO3

Will react with Cl2 and Br2 to form halogenated hydrocarbons.

Examples are CH3Cl, CH2Cl2 and CHCl3

Can crack molecules like ethane under controlled conditions to form CH2CH2

Will react with O2 to form CO2, CO, and H2O33


Alkenes and Alkynes Alkenes contain one or more double bonds

General form: CnH2n

Alkynes contain one or more triple bonds General form: CnH2n-2

Non-polar compounds are not water soluble

Examples:

34

Ethene or ethylene Ethyne or acetylene


Alkenes and Alkynes Nomenclature

The parent chain must contain the multiple bond even if it is a smaller chain length than one without a multiple bond

Number from end that gives the lowest number to the first carbon of the multiple bond

The number is given as -x- and placed just before the –ene or –yne of the parent name.

For example, but-2-ene. The double bond starts on carbon 2 of the chain.

35


Alkene Examples

Start numbering from the left to get the lowest number for the first carbon with the double bond

The parent is heptene and the correct naming including the double bond location would be hep-2-ene

36


Alkene Example

The parent chain is four carbons 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene

We would not name this 2-methyl-3-methylbut-2-ene

37


Naming Polyenes How do we name compounds such as the

following?

This compound contains two double bonds and is known as a diene

We want the lowest number for the first carbon of each of the double bonds

Start numbering from the right

38


Naming Polyenes The correct name would be hex-1,3-diene

Three double bonds would be a triene

hex-1,3,5-triene

39

Geometric Isomers Groups cannot freely rotate about a double

bond Therefore, it is possible to have geometric

isomers

Examples:

44

trans-1,2-dibromoethene

cis-1,2-dibromoethene


Reactions of Alkene Alkenes readily add across the double

bond Examples of an addition reaction:

CH2CH2 + H2 CH3CH3 hydrogenation

CH2CH2 + HCl → CH3CH2Cl

CH2CH2 + H2O → CH3CH2OH

CH2CH2 + Cl2 → CH2ClCH2Cl

45


Aromatic Hydrocarbons The most common aromatic compound is

benzene and its derivatives Representation of bonding

Delocalized π bonds create unique stability, called resonance stabilization. The circle in the ring represents delocalization.

46


Reactions Substitution reactions maintain benzene’s

resonance structure. Addition reactions, like those of alkenes,

destroy resonance structure

Substitution reaction:

47


Addition Reaction

Notice that you have reduced the double bonding in the ring and altered the resonance stabilization of the ring

Organic Compounds Containing OxygenImportant functional groups:

51

Alcohol Ether Aldehyde

Ketone Carboxylic acid Ester


Alcohols and Ethers Common alcohols: names end in –ol

CH3OH methanol

CH3CH2OH ethanol

CH3CH2CH2OH propan-1-ol If the –OH group was attached to the central

carbon then the alcohol would be propan-2-ol

Alcohols form hydrogen bonds, causing their boiling points to be higher than predicted.

52


Alcohols and Ethers Primary alcohols:

Secondary alcohols:

Tertiary alcohols:

53


Alcohols and Ethers Common ethers:

CH3OCH3 dimethyl ether

CH3CH2OCH2CH3 diethyl ether

CH3OCH2CH3 methyl ethyl ether

No hydrogen bonding occurs, thus, boiling points are lower than corresponding alcohols

Like alkanes, ethers are not very reactive

54


Reactions of Alcohols Alcohols can undergo oxidation to form a

variety of products. Oxidation removes an H atom from the alcoholic carbon as well as the H on the –OH group.

Primary alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes and carboxylic acids

55


Reactions of Alcohols Aldehydes are more readily oxidized than

alcohols

Secondary alcohols can be oxidized to ketones

56


Reactions of Alcohols Ketones are not further oxidized Tertiary alcohols have no H atom on the

alcoholic carbon and thus, do not undergo oxidation

Alcohols undergo elimination reactions in the presence of concentrated H2SO4 forming water and alkenes

–OH group readily accepts a proton from sulfuric acid

57


Elimination Reaction Dehydration of an alcohol

During the reaction a very unstable carbocation is formed. This ion eliminates a proton to form the alkene.

58


Substitution Reactions of Alcohols Using heat and concentrated HBr, HI, or

HCl, a halogen will replace the –OH group

A proton adds to the –OH forming –OH2+

Water leaves and the halogen ion attaches to the carbon site where the –OH was attached

59

2-bromo-2-methylpropane


Aldehydes and Ketones

Naming aldehydes Parent name ends in –al, replacing –e in the

alkane name The aldehyde group is always at the end of a

chain and numbering starts with that end of the chain

60

Aldehyde group Keto group


Naming Aldehydes

Number from the aldehyde end Do not use -1- for aldehyde: 3-methylpropan-1-al, or 3-methyl-1-

propanal would be wrong

61

Learning CheckWhat is the name of the following

aldehyde?

62

4-ethylhexanal

shown

below?

A. 4-methyl-3-ethylhexan-2-one

B. 4-ethyl-3-methylhexan-5-one

D. 3,4-diethylpentan-2-one66


Your Turn! - Solution Number to give lowest number to keto

group so you start from the right

Alkyl groups are ordered alphabetically so ethyl comes before methyl

67


Reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones Aldehydes and ketones add hydrogen

across the C=O bond Process is hydrogenation or reduction

68


Carboxylic Acids and Esters

69


Naming Carboxlic Acids Name ends in –oic, replacing –e in the

parent name Numbering begins with carboxyl group –COOH or –CO2H is the condensed form

CH3COOH is ethanoic acid (acetic acid)

70


Naming Carboxylic Acids Benzoic acid

Propanoic acid

71

B. 2-methyl-1-butanoic acid

C. 2-methlybutan-1-oic acid

D. 3-methylbutan-1-oic acid

These are examples

of simple amides

82


Synthesis of Simple Amides An organic acid reacts with aqueous NH3 to

form an amide

2-methylpropanoic acid yields 2-methylpropanamide

83


Amide Reactions Amides can be hydrolyzed back to their

acid form producing ammonia in the process

84


Amide Reactions Urea, an amide, ultimately hydrolyzes to

NH3, CO2 and water

Carbonic acid is formed, which then decomposes to carbon dioxide and water

The overall reaction is:

85


Basicity of Amides Amides are not basic like amines The lone pair on the N atom is delocalized

and thus not readily available for donation to a proton

Fatty Acids

105


Triacylglycerols Triacylglycerol example

106


Reactions of Triacylclycerols Digestion

Breaks down the triacylclycerol into its three component fatty acids and glycerol. Takes place in base so in fact the fatty acids are in their anion form

Hydrogenation The addition of hydrogen to the double bonds Turns oils into solids

107


Soap Castile soap is made from olive oil Olive oil has many different fatty acids

Two major fatty acid constituents are oleic acid, 50-85%, and linoleic acid, 4-20%

Saponification of triacylglcerols using NaOH or other base, and heat, results in salts of the fatty acid components plus glycerol Sodium oleate and sodium linoleate, for example

This product mixture, soap, is thus the result of saponification of triacylglcerols
