The number of possible isomers increases with chain length Name and (no. of carbons) Number of possible isomers • Butane (4) • Pentane (5) • Hexane (6) • Heptane (7) • Octane (8) • Nonane (9) • Decane (10) • Pentadecane (15) • Icosane (20) • Tetracontane (40) • 2 • 3 • 5 • 9 • 18 • 35 • 75 • 4347 • 366 319 • 62 491 178 805 831
Types of formulae • There are four ways of showing formulae of organic compounds • Look at these examples for decane • 1. Molecular formulae: C10H22 • 2. Condensed structural formulae: • CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 • 3. Structural formulae • 4. Line structure:
Other side groups Other options include aromatics – see later lessons and metals such as Iron, copper etc.
