Organic Chemistry. Hydrocarbons. Contain only carbon and hydrogen Carbon (4 valence e - ) will ALWAYS form four bonds. Alkanes. Only single covalent bonds C 1 -C 4 —gases at room temp. C 5 -C 10 —liquids at room temp. C 11 and up—solids at room temp.

Hydrocarbons • Contain only carbon and hydrogen • Carbon (4 valence e-) will ALWAYS form four bonds
Alkanes • Only single covalent bonds • C1-C4—gases at room temp. • C5-C10—liquids at room temp. • C11 and up—solids at room temp. • Nonpolar molecules, do not mix with water.
Alkanes • CnH2n+2 is the formula for all alkanes • Structural— • Condensed— • Molecular--
Naming Alkanes • Find the longest “parent chain” in the molecule and name it. • Name any branches using the correct prefix and the ending “-yl” • Assign a number for the location on the parent chain where the branch is located.
Isomers • Structural isomers have the same molecular formula, but different structures. • Since they are built differently, they have different properties and react differently with other compounds.
Isomers • Build a model of C4H10
Isomers • Build a model of C4H10 • Does it look like this?
Isomers • There is another form of C4H10
Same molecular formula (C3H8), but completely different construction. That’s isomers.
Isomers • How many isomers are there for pentane? • How many are there for hexane? • Draw and name as many octane isomers as you can (as a group) before the end of class. (1 pt. each) • Do the isomers page for homework.
Alkenes and Alkynes • Contain double (-ene) or triple (-yne) bonds. • Called unsaturated compounds. • How do we name them?
Functional Groups • This is a specific arrangement of atoms attached to an organic compound. • The method we’ll use to introduce them will have the molecule represented as ‘R’ and the functional group attached.
Halocarbons • This is a hydrocarbon with a halogen attached to it. R-Cl or R-Br • How do you name them?
Alcohols • This is a hydrocarbon with a hydroxyl attached to it. R-OH • The carbon with the hydroxyl is numbered first, before any other attachment. • How do we name them?
Ethers • This is a hydrocarbon that has an oxygen along the chain. R-O-R’ • How do we name them? • Unfortunately, there are two systems for naming ethers:
Aldehydes & Ketones • They have a carbonyl group attached to them. -C=O • A ketone has the carbonyl along the middle of the chain, and an aldehyde has the carbonyl at the end of the chain. • How do we name them?
Carboxylic Acids • Have a carboxyl group attached to them. • These acids donate hydrogen ions just like any other acid. • The carbon with the carboxyl attached to it is automatically carbon # 1. • How do we name acids?
Esters • Product of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol • Often used as artificial flavors and fragrances.
Amines and Amides • Contain the functional group –NH2 • Amines have the NH2 anywhere along the chain. • Amides have the NH2 at the end of the chain, attached to a carbonyl group. • And for the last time, how do we name them?
Drug Compounds Ephedrine methamphetamine
Some others… • andriol
Some others… dianabol
Polymers • Large molecules formed by the repeated bonding of smaller molecules. • For example, polyethylene is formed by repeating ethene molecules; sometimes thousands of them. • Everything we know as plastic is some kind of polymer.
Fatty Acids or Fats • Fats are carboxylic acids. • An acid with only single bonds along the chain is a saturated fat. • An acid with double bonds along the chain is an unsaturated fat.
Fatty Acids • The double bond comes in two types, cis- and trans-. • The trans- bond keeps the chain straight, and the cis- bonds makes the chain bend.
Polymers • All of these polymers that make plastics and fabrics are made of molecules that were distilled from crude oil.
Where a standard barrel of crude oil goes: • 47% Gasoline • 23% Heating oil & Diesel fuel • 18% Plastics, synthetic rubber, chemicals • 10% Jet fuel • 4% Propane • 3% Asphalt • If we quit driving cars today, we would still need oil for lots of things.
