consists of

• a s bond formed by overlap of sp2 hybrid orbitals

• a p bond formed by overlap of parallel 2p orbital

Rotating by 90°breaks the pi bond

orbitals

IUPAC Nomenclature of Alkenes and Alkynes

• name the longest continuous carbon chain containing the

multiple bond(s) (parent chain). If cyclic, ring is the parent.

• use the infix -en- to show the presence of a carbon-carbon

double bond

• use the infix -yn- to show the presence of a carbon-carbon

triple bond

• number the parent chain to give the 1st carbon of the

double/triple bond the lower number

• If both double and triple are present and cannot have the

same #, then double bonds take priority.

• follow IUPAC general rules for numbering and naming

substituents

• for a cycloalkene, the double bond must be numbered 1,2

Physical Properties

Alkenes and alkynes are nonpolar compounds

• the only attractive forces between their molecules are

dispersion forces

Their physical properties are similar to those of

alkanes of similar carbon skeletons

• those that are liquid at room temperature are less dense

than water (1.0 g/m L)

• they dissolve in each other and in nonpolar organic

solvents

• they are insoluble in water

13-28Chemistry 121, Winter 2011, LA Tech

Cis-Trans Isomerism

• trans alkenes are more stable than cis alkenes because

of nonbonded interaction strain between alkyl

substituents of the same side of the double bond

Naming alkenes and alkynes

Find the longest carbon chain. Use as base

name with an ene or yne ending.

Number the chain to give lowest number for the

carbons of the double or triple bond.

Locate any branches on chain. Use base names with a

yl ending.

For multiple branch of the same type, modify name with

di, tri, ...

Show the location of each branch with numbers.

List multiple branches alphabetically

- the di, tri, ... don’t count..
