Organic Chemistry Review Part II
2
Functional Groups 1. Hydrocarbons 2. Derivatives of Hydrocarbons
3
Functional Groups Organic molecules may have functional groups attached. A functional group is a group of atoms of a particular arrangement that gives the entire molecule certain chemical characteristics. Functional groups are named according to the composition of the group.
4
Functional Groups Organic chemists use the letter "R" to indicate an organic molecule. The "R" can be any organic molecule.
5
Hydrocarbons The simplest organic compounds. Contain only carbon and hydrogen, Can be straight-chain, branched chain, or cyclic molecules. Carbon tends to form four bonds in a tetrahedral geometry.
6
Hydrocarbons Two classifications: 1. Aliphatics 2. Aromatics Aliphatic - hydrocarbons which do not contain an aromatic ring.
7
Hydrocarbons Aromatic - Aromatic hydrocarbons contain a set of covalently bound atoms with specific characteristics: A delocalized conjugated π system, with the common arrangement of alternating single and double bonds
8
Aliphatics 1. Alkanes 2. Cycloalkanes 3. Alkenes 4. Alkynes
9
Alkanes IUPAC ending is …ane
10
Alkanes Saturated hydrocarbons. Are hydrocarbons which contain only single bonds. All alkanes are insoluble in water, but dissolve in organic solvents. Density, viscosity, melting point & boiling points increase as the molecular weight/size of the hydrocarbon increases.
11
Alkanes Contain single covalent bonds. Have the same structural formula: C n H 2n+2 All carbons have single bonds therefore the molecular geometry is tetrahedral.
12
Alkanes The names of alkanes start with the name of the alkane but end with the suffix –ane.
13
Alkanes Each atom in an alkane uses all its 4 valence electrons in forming single bonds with other atoms. Alkyl groups may be used as substituents for hydrogens.
14
Alkanes Alkyl groups form the branches of straight chain hydrocarbons. Can have more than one alkyl group for hydrogens. For multiple substituents of the same type, use the following prefixes: di- tri- tetra- penta- hexa-
15
Alkanes
16
Other functional groups can be used as substituents. More than one substituent requires a prefix. Any hydrogen can be substituted by: 1.Halogens 2.Alcohols 3.Amines 4.Nitriles 5.Thiols 6.Aldehydes 7.Ketones
17
Alkanes Any carbon can be substituted by: Carboxylic Acids Esters Amides Thioesters Addition of other atoms: Ethers Thioethers Disulfides

Ethene, propene and butene are gases at room temperature. The remaining are liquids. Boiling points increases with molecular mass (chain length). The higher the molecular mass, the higher the boiling point.
29
Alkenes Are hydrocarbons which contain one or more double bonds. Double bonds are: Have the same structural formula: C n H 2n
30
Alkenes The main centers are the carbons of the double bond. The geometry of each carbon in the center is trigonal planar. This portion of the molecule is flat, with bond angles of 120 degrees.
31
Alkenes All the alkenes with 4 or more carbon atoms in them show structural isomerism.
32
Alkenes The carbon-carbon double bond does not rotate. Substituents groups on the molecule are locked on either one side of the molecule or opposite each other.
33
Alkenes The names of alkenes start with the name of the alkane but end with the suffix –ene. For alkenes above propene, the position of the double bond must be specified in the name.
34
Alkenes Can have more than one alkyl group to form branches. For more than one alkyl group, use prefixes.
35

Aromatics Structures that meet Huckel’s Rule
50
Aromatics Coplanar structures, with all the contributing atoms in the same plane. Are arranged in one or more rings. Benzene rings are not a common motif. The three general requirements for a compound to be aromatic are: The compound must be cyclic. Each element within the ring must have a p-orbital that is perpendicular to the ring, hence the molecule is planar. The compound must follow Hückel's Rule.
51
Aromatics The number of π delocalized electrons must follow Hückel's Rule. number of π electrons = 4n + 2 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on The number of π delocalized electrons is an even number, but not a multiple of 4 to be an aromatic compound.
52
Aromatics The most common examples of aromatic hydrocarbons are organic compounds, which contain one or more benzene rings. Benzene
53
Aromatics Benzene follows Huckel’s Rule:
54
Aromatics Each atom in benzene uses all its 4 valence electrons in forming covalent bonds with other atoms. Other functional groups can be used as substituents. More than one substituent requires a prefix.
55
Aromatics Any hydrogen or carbon atom can be substituted by:
56
Aromatics When two substituents are attached to the benzene ring: Ortho, meta, or para can be used to indicate where the two substituents are on the benzene ring. Three classifications: ortho- (o-): position 1, 2- meta- (m): posotion 1, 3- para- (p): position 1, 4-
