Chemistry, The Central Science, 11th edition Theodore L. Brown; H. Eugene LeMay, Jr.; and Bruce E. Bursten Chapter 25 Organic and Biological Chemistry John D. Bookstaver St. Charles Community College Cottleville, MO © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

2 Organic Chemistry Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. Carbon has the ability to form long chains. Without this property, large biomolecules such as proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids could not form. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

3 Structure of Carbon Compounds
There are three hybridization states and geometries found in organic compounds: sp3 Tetrahedral sp2 Trigonal planar sp Linear © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

4 Hydrocarbons There are four basic types of hydrocarbons: Alkanes
Alkenes Alkynes Aromatic hydrocarbons © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

5 Alkanes Alkanes contain only single bonds.
They are also known as saturated hydrocarbons. They are “saturated” with hydrogens. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

6 Formulas Lewis structures of alkanes look like this.
They are also called structural formulas. They are often not convenient, though… © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

7 Formulas …so more often condensed formulas are used.
© 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

8 Properties of Alkanes The only van der Waals force is the London dispersion force. The boiling point increases with the length of the chain. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

9 Structure of Alkanes Carbons in alkanes are sp3 hybrids.
They have a tetrahedral geometry and 109.5° bond angles. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

10 Structure of Alkanes There are only -bonds in alkanes.
There is free rotation about the C—C bonds. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

11 Isomers Isomers have the same molecular formulas, but the atoms are bonded in a different order. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

12 Isomers are … Compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structures!

13 Structural Isomers Geometric Isomers
You can learn about the different types of isomers! Structural Isomers and Geometric Isomers

14 Structural Isomers Isomers in which the atoms are bonded together in different orders. Example: Butane and 2-methylpropane

15 Butane 2-Methylpropane
Also, structural isomers may have different physical and chemical properties. Butane Methylpropane density (liquid) boiling point (oC) melting point (oC)

16 Geometric Isomers Isomers in which the order of atom bonding is the same, but the arrangement of atoms in space is different. Example: 1-dichloroethene and 2-dichloroethene cis trans

17 A geometric isomer can only exist if there is a rigid structure in the molecule to prevent free rotation around a bond. Geometric isomers can only exist if two atoms in a rigid structure each have two different groups attached.

18 Organic Nomenclature There are three parts to a compound name:
Base: This tells how many carbons are in the longest continuous chain. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

19 Organic Nomenclature There are three parts to a compound name:
Base: This tells how many carbons are in the longest continuous chain. Suffix: This tells what type of compound it is. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

20 Organic Nomenclature There are three parts to a compound name:
Base: This tells how many carbons are in the longest continuous chain. Suffix: This tells what type of compound it is. Prefix: This tells what groups are attached to the chain. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

21 How to Name a Compound Find the longest chain in the molecule.
Number the chain from the end nearest the first substituent encountered. List the substituents as a prefix along with the number(s) of the carbon(s) to which they are attached. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

22 How to Name a Compound If there is more than one type of substituent in the molecule, list them alphabetically. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

23 Cycloalkanes Carbon can also form ringed structures.
Five- and six-membered rings are most stable. They can take on conformations in which their bond angles are very close to the tetrahedral angle. Smaller rings are quite strained. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

24 Reactions of Alkanes Alkanes are rather unreactive due to the presence of only C—C and C—H -bonds. Therefore, they make great nonpolar solvents. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

25 Alkenes Alkenes contain at least one carbon–carbon double bond.
They are unsaturated. That is, they have fewer than the maximum number of hydrogens. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

26 Structure of Alkenes Unlike alkanes, alkenes cannot rotate freely about the double bond. The side-to-side overlap in the -bond makes this impossible without breaking the -bond. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

27 Structure of Alkenes This creates geometric isomers, which differ from each other in the spatial arrangement of groups about the double bond. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

28 Properties of Alkenes Structure also affects the physical properties of alkenes. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

29 Nomenclature of Alkenes
The chain is numbered so the double bond gets the smallest possible number. cis-Alkenes have the carbons in the chain on the same side of the molecule. trans-Alkenes have the carbons in the chain on opposite sides of the molecule. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

30 Reactions of Alkenes One reaction of alkenes is the addition reaction.
In it, two atoms (e.g., bromine) add across the double bond. One -bond and one -bond are replaced by two -bonds; therefore, H is negative. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

31 Mechanism of Addition Reactions
It is a two-step mechanism: The first step is the slow, rate-determining step. The second step is fast. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

32 Mechanism of Addition Reactions
In the first step, the -bond breaks and the new C—H bond and a cation form. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

33 Mechanism of Addition Reactions
In the second step, a new bond forms between the negative bromide ion and the positive carbon. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

34 Alkynes Alkynes contain at least one carbon–carbon triple bond.
The carbons in the triple bond are sp-hybridized and have a linear geometry. They are also unsaturated. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

35 Nomenclature of Alkynes
4-methyl-2-pentyne The method for naming alkynes is analogous to the naming of alkenes. However, the suffix is -yne rather than -ene. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

36 Reactions of Alkynes Alkynes undergo many of the same reactions alkenes do. As with alkenes, the impetus for reaction is the replacement of -bonds with -bonds. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

37 Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Aromatic hydrocarbons are cyclic hydrocarbons that have some particular features. There is a p-orbital on each atom. The molecule is planar. There is an odd number of electron pairs in the -system. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

38 Aromatic Nomenclature
Many aromatic hydrocarbons are known by their common names. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

39 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds
In aromatic compounds, unlike in alkenes and alkynes, each pair of -electrons does not sit between two atoms. Rather, the electrons are delocalized; this stabilizes aromatic compounds. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

40 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds
Due to this stabilization, aromatic compounds do not undergo addition reactions; they undergo substitution. In substitution reactions, hydrogen is replaced by a substituent. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

41 Structure of Aromatic Compounds
Two substituents on a benzene ring could have three possible relationships: ortho-: On adjacent carbons. meta-: With one carbon between them. para-: On opposite sides of ring. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

42 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds
Halogenation Friedel-Crafts Reaction Reactions of aromatic compounds often require a catalyst. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

43 Functional Groups The term functional group is used to refer to parts of organic molecules where reactions tend to occur. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

44 Alcohols Alcohols contain one or more hydroxyl groups, —OH.
They are named from the parent hydrocarbon; the suffix is changed to -ol and a number designates the carbon to which the hydroxyl is attached. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

45 Alcohols Alcohols are much more acidic than hydrocarbons.
pKa ~15 for most alcohols. Aromatic alcohols have pKa ~10. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

46 Ethers Ethers tend to be quite unreactive.
Therefore, they are good polar solvents. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

47 Carbonyl Compounds The carbonyl group is a carbon-oxygen double bond.
Carbonyl compounds include many classes of compounds. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

48 Aldehydes In an aldehyde, at least one hydrogen is attached to the carbonyl carbon. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

49 Ketones In ketones, there are two carbons bonded to the carbonyl carbon. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

50 Carboxylic Acids Acids have a hydroxyl group bonded to the carbonyl group. They are tart tasting. Carboxylic acids are weak acids. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

51 Esters Esters are the products of reactions between carboxylic acids and alcohols. They are found in many fruits and perfumes. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

52 Amides Amides are formed by the reaction of carboxylic acids with amines. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

53 Amines Amines are organic bases.
They generally have strong, unpleasant odors. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

54 Chirality Carbons with four different groups attached to them are handed, or chiral. These are optical isomers or stereoisomers. If one stereoisomer is “right-handed,” its enantiomer is “left-handed.” © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

55 Chirality Many pharmaceuticals are chiral.
S-ibuprofen Many pharmaceuticals are chiral. Often only one enantiomer is clinically active. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

56 Amino Acids and Proteins
Proteins are polymers of -amino acids. A condensation reaction between the amine end of one amino acid and the acid end of another produces a peptide bond. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

57 Amino Acids and Proteins
Hydrogen bonding in peptide chains causes coils and helices in the chain. Kinking and folding of the coiled chain gives proteins a characteristic shape. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

58 Amino Acids and Proteins
Most enzymes are proteins. The shape of the active site complements the shape of the substrate on which the enzyme acts; hence, the “lock- and-key” model. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

59 Carbohydrates Simple sugars are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones.
© 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

60 Carbohydrates In solution, they form cyclic structures.
These can form chains of sugars that form structural molecules such as starch and cellulose. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

61 Nucleic Acids Two of the building blocks of RNA and DNA are sugars (ribose or deoxyribose) and cyclic bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine or uracil). © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

62 Nucleic Acids These combine with a phosphate to form a nucleotide.
© 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

63 Nucleic Acids Nucleotides combine to form the familiar double-helix form of the nucleic acids. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
