Maximum number of bonds permitted using valence shell orbitals: N is positive to allow for overall positive charge. Could have made any atom positive. 14/2 = 7 bonds
Set-up single bond framework. 6 bonds used in single bond framework. 1 left to assign. It will be a pi bond, part of a double bond. The additional bond is used to provide maximum stabilization; completing the octet. Where does it go? Only two possibilities…. How are they interconverted?
So what is the third structure? It won’t have the double bond. Will not obey the octet rule. Can collapse the pi bond into a lone pair. Could we have collapsed in other direction? No lone pair on this N. High energy structure; not very important.
Our three structures….. Does not obey octet rule. Least stable, least important. Intermediate stable with positive charge on more electronegative oxygen. Most stable with positive charge on the electropositive atom, N.
Examine one of the interconversions shown earlier. Looking at it in reverse. Higher energy structure Lower energy, one more bond. This is a common and significant resonance motion. A supply of electrons moving towards a place where needed and providing a new bond in the process.
Exceptions to Octet Rule But the S violates the octet rule by having more than 8 electrons around the S. Valence shell is 3s and 3p. S now would have to use additional atomic orbitals This means S would have to use the 3d shell orbitals. Luckily, they are low in energy and can be utilized. Octet is expanded due to use of 3d orbitals.
Donation from O to S. Observe that this is another example of donation of available electrons (lone pair) into a neighboring acceptor orbital. Empty 3d Filled 2p
Survey of Classes of Molecules • Hydrocarbons, C & H A Alkanes: only single bonds • Acyclic (no rings) Alkanes: CnH2n+2 suffix: -ane 2. Cyclic alkanes: example cyclohexane CnH2n+2-2(# rings) Presence of a ring eliminates two hydrogens
Alkenes: double bonds, pi bonds • Suffix: -ene i acyclic ii cycloalkenes A pi bond eliminates two hydrogens C4H10 (butane) C4H8 (butene) + 2 H • general formula: CnH2n+2-2(# rings) -2(#pi bonds)
Oxygen Containing Molecules Incorporation of an oxygen into a molecule does not change the relationship between the number of carbons and number of hydrogens. CnH2n+2-2(#pi bonds) – 2(# rings)Oa Watch how this makes sense.
Hydrogen Deficiency • - 2(#pi bonds) – 2(# rings) CnH2n+2 hydrogen deficiency. 2n + 2: Number of hydrogens for an acyclic compound with n carbons and no pi bonds. If a compound has a different number of hydrogens it must be due to the presence of pi bonds or rings. # pi bonds + # rings = 1/2 ( (2n + 2) - (actual number of hydrogens present) )
Singly bonded Oxygen Alcohols, ROH, -ol Two OH groups: a diol
Useful Classiification of Alcohols (and other things): Primary, Secondary, Tertiary Alcohols and many other groups may be classified as Primary: one carbon directly bonded to the C bearing the –OH. CH3CH2CH2OH Secondary: two carbons directly bonded to the C bearing the –OH. (CH3CH2)2CHOH Tertiary: three carbons directly bonded to the C bearing the –OH. (CH3CH2)3COH 1o, 2o, 3o
Ethers: ROR, isomeric with alcohols Methoxy group (alkoxy)
Doubly Bonded Oxygen Carbonyl Group This is a pi bond, resulting in the elimination of two hydrogens.
Aldehydes, RCHO, -al 4 3 2 1 Still more complex, now we put a double bond in the parent chain. A more complex example Start numbering the chain at CHO Double Bonds part of Parent Chain 2-methylbutanal
Ketones, R(CO)R, -one Both carbonyls must be included in parent chain –dione. Butyl Side chain. Simple example More complex example: Double bond included as part of parent chain 1
Carboxylic Acids, RCO2H, -oic acid Another more complex problem Methyl group Both carboxylic groups must be in parent chain C O H C O H Ethyl Group 2 2 Vinyl side chain Start numbering here
Attached to or part of the Parent Chain are: • Functional Groups: -OH, carbonyl (aldehydes, ketones), carboxylic acids • Substituents: alkyl groups, halogens, alkoxy groups
Some Simple Substituents • Alkyl, -R: An alkane minus one hydrogen (providing the point of attachment to the parent chain). -CH2CH3: ethyl (-Et); -CH2CH2CH3: propyl; -CH(CH3)2: isopropyl • Alkoxy, -OR. –OCH2CH3: ethoxy (-OEt) • Halo, -X. –Cl: chloro
More complex substituents Systematically named. Note that the atom directly attached to the parent chain is atom 1 in the substituent. Substituents on the butyl substituent!! 1 3 2 Substituent 4 6 Parent chain 6-(2-(chloromethyl)-4-methoxy-1-methylbutyl) Indicates position of attachment on parent chain
Functional Groups Non-Functional Groups (alkyl, alkoxy, halide) will always appear as substituent and as a prefix. Functional Groups (pi bonds, alcohol, aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid) will determine the suffix of parent chain. If more than one functional group then we must prioritize. Highest priority determines suffix. The rest ( alcohol, aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid) appear a prefix. But note unsaturation (pi bonding) in the parent chain is always specified as a suffix.
Functional Group Priorities Highest priority at bottom 1
2-(but-2-enyl)-3-(1-hydroxyethyl)-4-(2-oxoethyl)pent-2-enedioic acid One more example. 1 2 4 3 5 Highest Priority Functional Group: two carboxylic acids. Pentanedioic acid Double bond in parent chain: Pent-2-enedioic acid Ethyl side chain bearing a hydroxy at position 1: 3-(1-hydroxyethyl) Ethyl side chain bearing an oxo at position 2: 4-(2-oxoethyl) Butyl side chain with double bond at position 2: 2-(but-2-enyl)
Polar Bonds and Electronegativity H Electronegativity increases towards the upper right. Electronegativity differences results in polar bonds. Example:
Some Examples Polar Bonds can lead to Polar Molecules Combine the bond dipoles to get the overall dipole by means of vector addition. Bond dipoles are put tail to head to provide an overall result. Resultant Vector Combine these three vectors
Predicting Molecular dipoles Clearly, molecular geometry is very important in determining molecular dipoles. Problem: Rank the following for size of molecular dipole. Bond angles are 120o. A > C > B(0)
Molecular geometry (VSEPR) The number of groups of electrons around an atom determines the shape. Each lone pair, single, double, or triple bond counts as a group.
Example 1 • CH4 • Four bonds = Four groups • Tetrahedral
Two lone pairs Two bonds Example 2 Four groups of electrons. Tetrahedral geometry for groups. Bent Molecule
Nature of Chemical Bonds So far, we have the octet rule which tells us how many bonds we can make. But how do we understand the nature of the bonds? Three models for bonding: ionic, valence bond, molecular orbitals.
Ionic Bonding Requires very different electronegativities to make the complete transfer of electrons worthwhile. Not discussed further although it occurs in salts of organic acids. For example sodium acetate.

Quantum or Wave Mechanics • When we describe orbital interactions, we are referring to interactions of waves. Waves interact • constructively or • destructively. • When two waves overlap, if they are of the same sign then they combine constructively, build-up. Opposite sign overlap combines destructively, meaning they cancel.

Molecular Orbital Theory • MO theory begins with the hypothesis that • electrons in atoms exist in atomic orbitals and • electrons in molecules exist in molecular orbitals.
Molecular Orbital Theory • Rules: • Combination of n atomic orbitals (mathematically adding and subtracting wave functions) gives n MOs (new wave functions). • MOs are arranged in order of increasing energy. • MO filling is governed by the same rules as for atomic orbitals: • Aufbau principle: fill beginning with lowest energy orbital • Pauli exclusion principle: no more than 2e- in a MO • Hund’s rule: when two or more MOs of equivalent energy (degenerate) are available, add 1e- to each before filling any one of them with 2e-.
