24.1 Common Elements in Organic Compounds

24.1 Classification of Hydrocarbons

24.2 Alkanes Alkanes have the general formula C n H 2n+2 where n = 1,2,3,… only single covalent bonds saturated hydrocarbons because they contain the maximum number of hydrogen atoms that can bond with the number of carbon atoms in the molecule CH 4 C2H6C2H6 C3H8C3H8 methaneethanepropane

24.2 Structural isomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula but different structures

How many structural isomers does pentane, C 5 H 12, have? CCCC C HHHHH H HHHHH H CCC C HCH 3 HH H HHHH H CC C H H H HH H n-pentane 2-methylbutane 2,2-dimethylpropane 24.2

Alkane Nomenclature 1.The parent name of the hydrocarbon is that given to the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms in the molecule. CH 3 CH 2 CHCH 2 CH methylheptane 2.An alkane less one hydrogen atom is an alkyl group. CH 4 CH 3 methane methyl

24.2 Alkane Nomenclature

24.2 Alkane Nomenclature 3.When one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by other groups, the name of the compound must indicate the locations of carbon atoms where replacements are made. Number in the direction that gives the smaller numbers for the locations of the branches. CH 3 CHCH 2 CH methylpentane CH 3 CH 2 CHCH methylpentane

24.2 Alkane Nomenclature 4.Use prefixes di-, tri-, tetra-, when there is more than one alkyl branch of the same kind. CH 3 CH CH 2 CH ,3-dimethylhexane CH 3 CHCCH 2 CH ,3-dimethylhexane

24.2 Alkane Nomenclature 5.Use previous rules for other types of substituents. CH 3 CH CH 3 Br 1234 NO 2 2-bromo-3-nitrobutane CH 2 CHCH 3 Br 1234 NO 2 1-bromo-3-nitrobutane
