Organic Chemistry • Alkenes • Alkynes Mr. Shields Regents Chemistry U16 L03
Alkenes • Like the alkanes, the Alkenes form another homologous hydrocarbon series • Each member contains one double covalent bond between two C atoms. • So alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons. • General formula = CnH2n (2H less than the Alkanes) • What was the general formula for the Alkanes?
Saturation vs. Unsaturation • Simply put, a saturated hydrocarbon has no double bonds between the Carbon atoms (ex. alkanes) • Unsaturated has one or more double or triple bonds between carbons (alkenes, alkynes)
Physical properties of the Alkenes • Alkenes have properties similar to the alkanes • Insoluble in water • But very soluble in organic solvents • Less dense than water (density of water = 1.0) • B.P. and M.P increase w/ increasing carbon # • Slightly lower than the corresponding alkane • As with alkanes B.P rises about 20-30 C per carbon • Hexane b.p. 69 C; 1-Hexene b.p. 63.5 C • Heptane b.p. 98 C; 1-Heptene b.p. 93 C
Naming Alkenes • Names are derived using the same prefix used to name the alkane chain with the same number of C atoms. • Replace the –ane ending of the alkane name with –ene. 1st member is C2H4, ethene. H H C=C H H Why 1st ?
Naming Alkenes • Location of double bond is specified by numbering C atoms in longest C backbone. Give double bond the lowest possible number. • Do not use a # if there is only 1 possible location 1-butene (not 3) 2-butene H H H C=C–C–C–H H H H H H H H H H–C–C=C–C–H H H Structural Formula Chemical formula Condensed Structural formula C4H8 CH2CHCH2CH3 C4H8 CH3CHCHCH3

Naming Alkenes • Once double bond is numbered specify substituents alphabetically by carbon number • Do not use a number if there is only 1 possible location • Use di, tri and tetra for multiple substituents of the same group 2,3-dimethyl-1-butene C=C–C–C C C Structural Formula (w/o the H) Chemical formula Condensed Structural formula C6H12 CH2C(CH3)CH(CH3)CH3

Alkynes • Homologous series of unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain one triple bond. • Each member contains one triple carbon-carbon bond. • Alkynes are unsaturated. • General formula = CnH2n-2

Naming Alkynes • Use the corresponding name from the alkane series and change the –ane to –yne. • If necessary, number the carbon atom at which the triple bond occurs with the lowest number. • Use the same naming process you used for naming Alkenes
