Cycloalknes Cyclic alkanes: General molecular formula, CnH2n Structure and nomenclature named similar to noncyclic alkanes to name, prefix the name of the corresponding open-chain alkane with cyclo-, and name each substituent on the ring if only one substituent, no need to give it a number if two substituents, number from the substituent of lower alphabetical order if three or more substituents, number to give them the lowest set of numbers, and then list substituents in alphabetical order in planar cyclopentane, all C-C-C bond angles are 108°, which differ only slightly from the tetrahedral angle of 109.5°consequently there is little angle strain CHEM 121 Winter 15
Cycloalkanes :saturated hydrocarbons with a carbon ring Have C-C single bonds in a ring structure. General formula CnH2n cyclobutane cyclopropane CHEM 121 Winter 15
Naming Cycloalkanes Have the carbons connected in a ring. These compounds are known collectively as To name a cycloalkane, use the prefix cyclo- with the parent. If there is only one substituent, a number is not needed. CHEM 121 Winter 15
Cycloalkanes Cycloalkanes have molecular formula CnH2n and contain carbon atoms arranged in a ring. Simple cycloalkanes are named by adding the prefix cyclo- to the name of the acyclic alkane having the same number of carbons. CHEM 121 Winter 15
Naming simple of cycloalkanes: cyclopropane cyclobutane cyclopentane cyclohexane cycloheptane cyclooctane CHEM 121 Winter 15
Ring strain in cycloalkane The stability of cycloalkanes depends on their ability to relieve ring strain when the bond angles are less than 109.5˚. Most stable Least stable CHEM 121 Winter 15

Conformers of Alkanes Structures resulting from the free rotation of a C-C single bond May differ in energy. The lowest-energy conformer is most prevalent. Molecules constantly rotate through all the possible conformations. CHEM 121 Winter 15
