D- Classes of organic compounds • Hydrocarbon (alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic hydrocarbons) • Alcohols • Ethers • Aldehydes • Ketones • Carboxylic acids • Esters • Amines • Amides
E-Aliphatic hydrocarbons E1. Alkanes: contain only single C-C bonds General formula:CnH2n+2 E2. Alkenes: unsaturated- contain at least one C=C bond General formula: CnH2n E3. Alkynes: unsaturated- contain CC bonds General formula: CnH2n-2
I- The reason Observation: The longer the carbon- carbon chain, the higher the boiling points and melting points because longer chain pack better than shorter alkanes
J- How is carbon bonding represented on paper ? 1 carbon has to have 4 bonds around it to be stable
K- Example Structural Formula Condensed structural formula Skeleton structural formula
L- Straight vs. Branched alkanes L1. Straight chain alkane has higher bp and mp than branched alkanes because of their better packing than branched alkanes
N- Unsaturated hydrocarbons N1. Are alkenes and alkynes N2. Alkenes contain double bonds in their structure N3. Alkynes contain triple bonds in their structure N4. Therefore, their structures has less hydrogen atoms than alkanes (i.e. saturated hydrocarbon)
O- Alkenes (CnH2n) O1- Ethene is an alkene (commonly called ethylene). It is released by ripen fruits which helps ripen other fruits
P-Alkenes (Cont’d) Propene Cyclic alkenes e.g. Cyclohexene
Q- Alkynes (CnH2n-2) Commonly called acetylene Cyclooctyne A cyclic alkyne
S- Naming straight alkanes 1. CH4 2. CH3-CH3 3. CH3-CH2-CH3 4. CH3-CH2-CH2-CH3 5. CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 6. CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 Answer: 1. methane 2. ethane 3. propane 4. butane 5. pentane 6. hexane
T- Naming straight alkenes When naming alkenes and alkynes: -there are many ways to place the double bond or triple bond in molecules with >3 carbons - thus have to specify where the double bond and triple bonds are with a number 1. CH2=CH2 2. CH2=CH-CH3 3. CH2=CH-CH2-CH3 4. CH3-CH=CH-CH3 Answer: • Ethene • 1-propene 3. 1-butene 4. 2-butene
U- Naming straight alkynes 1. CHCH 2. CHC-CH3 3. CHC-CH2-CH3 4. CH3-CC-CH3 Answer: • ethyne • propyne 3. 1-butyne 4. 2-butyne
V-Aromatic hydrocarbon o- : ortho- m- : meta- p- : para- Benzene
W-Frederick A. Kekule and the benzene ring structure = C6H6 hexagon Skeleton or Kekule structure
X- Products from benzene Cinamaldehyde Benzaldehyde Vanillin Styrene Aspirin
Y- Introducing Functional Groups Y1. What is a functional group? a group of atoms that gives the organic compound its unique chemical and physical characteristics Y2. examples: Carbon single bond (C-C, in alkanes), double bond (C=C, in alkenes) and triple bond (CC, in alkynes) are functional groups
Z –Other functional groups (Cont’d) A good summary table on page 252 of textbook
AA- Identify ALL functional groups in the following compounds
AA- Identify ALL functional groups in the following compounds (Cont’d)
AB -Bee Sting and Formic Acid Formic Acid AB1. Beeswax, C15H31OCOC30H61 An ester of palmitic acid C15H31COOH and myricyl alcohol C30H61OH
AC -Ibuprofen AC1- A widely sold OTC pain killer (Motrin, Advil)
AD -Organic dyes/pigment/colorants anthocyanin
AD -Organic dyes/pigment/colorants Chlorophyll used as food colorant and diet supplement
AE- Synthetic organic compounds • Agent Orange: herbicide used to strip off leaves in Vietnam war • Contain extremely toxic organic compounds called DIOXIN known to cause birth defects and cancer dioxin
In-class work / Homework • Question 1, 2 page 183 • Question 3,4 page 186
Nomenclature Flash Cards • In-class work if time permits • Create 5 flashcards to test your friends on how to name hydrocarbons. • There should be a picture on one side and the correct name of the compound on the back.
Exercise Identify the functional groups below: • CH3-CH3 • HC=CH-CH3 • CH3-CC-CH3 • CH3-CH2-CH2OH • CH3-O-CH3 6. CH3CHO same as 7. CH3COOH 8. CH3COOC2H5 9. CH3-CH2-NH2 10. CH3-CO-NH-CH3
