Organic Chemistry Alkanes and Alkenes
2
Pure Hydrocarbons Because the main use of hydrocarbons is as a fuel there is no point in going to the effort to separate them into individual hydrocarbons. It is, however, possible to obtain pure hydrocarbons by very careful distillation. This section is about pure hydrocarbons.

Carbon: Organic Chemistry C

Alkanes The simplest hydrocarbons form a series of compounds known as alkanes. These all consist of carbon and hydrogen only and every carbon has four single covalent bonds. HydrocarbonFormulaStructure MethaneCH 4 EthaneC2H6C2H6 PropaneC3H8C3H8 ButaneC 4 H 10 hydrogen carbon
5
Names of Alkanes The names of the 4 simplest alkanes are methane, ethane, propane and butane. After that the names are systematic (like the words used to describe geometric shapes.) E.g. –5 carbons = pentane C 5 H 12 –6 carbons = hexaneC 6 H 14 –7 carbons = heptaneC 7 H 16 –8 carbons = octaneC 8 H 18 –9 carbons = nonaneC 9 H 20 –10 carbons = decaneC 10 H 22 carbon hydrogen pentane
6
Homologous Series Alkanes all have very similar structures. They have a CH 3 at each end of the molecule. What differs is the number of CH 2 groups between the two ends. These all consist of carbon and hydrogen only and every carbon has four single covalent bonds. It is possible to build up a series by simply adding an extra CH 2 group This leads to a general formula of C n H 2n+2 hydrogen carbon n= 1 n=2 n=3 n=4
7
What will be the formula for alkanes containing the following numbers of carbons? C 12 H 26 C 16 H 34 C 31 H 64 C 19 H 40 Activity Number of carbonsFormula 12 16 31 19

12
Isomerism isomers. Alkanes of the same formula can have different arrangements of atoms. Such different arrangments are known as isomers. Two isomers of C 4 H 10 are shown Isomers of butane
13
Isomerism Naming: Find the longest chain this is called the backbone Isomers of butane
14
Isomerism Naming: Number the carbons Isomers of butane
15
Isomerism Isomers of butane N-butane 2-methylpropane
16
This is butane, but we call it n-butane n stands for normal
17
The longest chain is 3 carbons, so "propane". There is one carbon left. We call this "methyl". Therefore, methyl propane
18
n-pentane Methyl butane
19
Longest chain is 3, so propane 2 separate, one carbon side chains is dimethyl dimethyl propane
20
methyl pentane
29
Naming and Functional groups 2-ethyl -3-methyl-butane
30
Naming and Functional groups Locate the longest carbon chain Number the carbons from the end closest to the functional group (include the carbon that is part of the functional group
31
Naming alcohols Alcohols have the hydroxyl group -OH The prefix is the number of carbons in the longest chain Name the alkane and drop the letter e The suffix is -ol
32
If there are more than 2 carbons in the chain, use a number to indicate which carbon the –OH group is attached to (Number from the direction that gives the smallest number). The suffix is -ol
33
Naming ethers Ethers have an Oxygen in the chain of carbons Name the alkyl groups on either side of the O that is in the chain Shorter chain is named first If both alkyl groups are the same it is named once with the prefix DI in front of it
34
Naming aldehydes Aldehydes have a double bonded Oxygen on the last carbon in the chain Name the alkane, drop the e Suffix is –al
35
Naming ketones Ketones have a double bonded Oxygen on a carbon in the middle of the chain ( Not the last carbon ) Name the alkane; Drop the e; Suffix is -one If there are more than 4 carbons in the chain, use a number to indicate the location of the =O
36
Naming Haloalkanes Haloalkanes have a halogen attached Fluorine, Chlorine …. To name these remove the “ine” and replace with an “O”. Then use as a prefix
37

41
Naming carboxylic acids acids Acids have a carbonyl group and an OH They are essenially like an Aldehyde and an Alcohol added into the same molecule. Name the alkyl Chain and the swap the “e” for oic acid
