Organic Chemistry Chapter 12Oxygen and Sulfurin Organic Compounds
1. IMFA - intermolecular force of attraction - any attraction that exists between two or more molecules
2. Types of IMFA in Organic Molecules a. London Forces b. Dipole-Dipole c. Hydrogen Bonding
a. London Forces - IMFA between nonpolar molecules - all organic molecules containing C and H will always be nonpolar or have a nonpolar part and attract each other with London Forces
H H H H H H C C H H LF d- d- d+ d+ When the molecules are close, their electron clouds experience a momentary shift of electrons producing an instantaneous dipole.
- the greater the size of the molecule containing only C and H, the greater the London forces
H H H H H H H H C C C C C C H H C C H H H H H H H H H H H H H H C C H H H H Example: - propane molecules are larger than ethane molecules - LF will be greater between the propane molecules d+ d- d- d+ d- d+ d- d+
b. Dipole-Dipole Attractions - any organic molecule containing a C bonded to an O will have a polar area - primary IMFA between these molecules will be dipole-dipole
d- H O H C C C H H d+ H H d- H O H C C C H H d+ H H Example: 2-propanone - the C-O bond is polar - primary IMFA is dipole-dipole
c. Hydrogen Bonding - any organic molecule containing an H bonded to a F, O or N will have a highly polar area - primary IMFA between these molecules will be hydrogen bonding
H H H C C C O H H H H H d+ H H H d- C C C O H H H H H Example: 1-propanol - contains a H bonded to an O - IMFA is hydrogen bonding
Example: Name the following molecule. Show all the IMFA between the following molecules. Which is the dominant IMFA?
H NH2 H H H C C H C H C C H H H H OH H NH2 H H H C C H C H C C H H H H OH London Forces Hydrogen Bonding 1-amino-1-pentanol
3. Physical Properties All of the following physical properties aredirectly related to IMFA
3. a. Physical state at room temp b. Melting point c. Boiling point d. Volatility e. Viscosity f. Density g. Solubility h. Surface Tension
H H H H H H OH H C C H C C C C C C H H H H H H H H H H H Example: Which of the following liquids is more volatile? Explain. The IMFA between 2-propanol molecules is H-bonding. The IMFA between two pentane molecules is LF. Since LF are very weak, pentane is more volatile.
