Organic Chemistry Second Edition Chapter 1 David Klein
A Review of General Chemistry: Electrons, Bonds, and Molecular Properties Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e

Organic Chemistry The study of carbon-containing molecules and their reactions What happens during chemical reaction? A collision Bonds break/form WHAT IS A BOND? WHY do reactions occur? ELECTRONS are the glue Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e

Structural Theory Atoms that are most commonly bonded to carbon include N, O, H, and halides (F, Cl, Br, I). With some exceptions, each element generally forms a specific number of bonds with other atoms Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e

Structural Theory Atoms that are most commonly bonded to carbon include N, O, H, and halides (F, Cl, Br, I). Occurs in Chemistry, Biological Chemistry, every living organism, neuroscience... Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e

Covalent Bonding A covalent bond is a PAIR of electrons shared between two atoms. For example… Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
6
Covalent Bonding How do potential energy and stability relate?
What forces keep the bond at the optimal length? Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e

Atomic Structure A review from General Chemistry
Protons (+1) and neutrons (neutral) reside in the nucleus Electrons (-1) reside outside the nucleus. In orbitals Some electrons are close to the nucleus and others are far away. 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d Which electrons are the valence electrons of carbon? Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Counting Valence Electrons
Valence electrons: For Group A elements only: Group number on the periodic table
9
Simple Lewis Structures
For simple Lewis Structures… Draw the individual atoms using dots to represent the valence electrons. Put the atoms together so they share PAIRS of electrons to make complete octets (or duet for H) Take NH3, for example… Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.

Formal Charge unbalanced or FORMAL charge results in ions
Calculate FORMAL charge calculate valence electrons that atom should have calculate valence electrons atom actually has has Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
12
Formal Charge Calculate the formal charge on each atom. or
Carbon should have 4 valence electrons. Carbon actually has 8 (octet) valence electrons. 4 count towards its charge. Neutral C should actually have 4 valence e– so NO formal charge (neutral) Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
13
Formal Charge Analyze the formal charge of the oxygen atom. or
Oxygen should have 6 valence electrons. It actually has 8 (octet) valence electrons. 7 count towards its charge. Neutral O should have 6 e–, but it actually has 7 formal charge is -1 Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
14
Polar Covalent Bonds Covalent bonds between atoms: polar or nonpolar
Nonpolar Covalent Bonds: electrons shared evenly Polar Covalent Bonds: electrons shared unevenly Electronegativity - how strongly nucleus attracts electrons Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
15
Polar Covalent Bonds Electrons tend to shift away from lower electronegativity atoms to higher electronegativity atoms. The greater the difference in electronegativity, the more polar the bond.
16
Atomic Orbitals General Chemistry review
The type or orbital be identified by its shape An orbital is a region where there is a calculated 90% probability of finding an electron. The remaining 10% probability tapers off as you move away from the nucleus Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
17
Atomic Orbitals Electrons: behave as particles and waves.
The theory matches experimental data Like a wave on a lake, an electron’s wavefunction can be (+), (–), or ZERO. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
18
Atomic Orbitals Mathematics defines wavefunctions: orbital regions can also be (–), (+), or ZERO The sign of the wave function is not electrical charge. p-orbital has (–), (+), and nodal plane (0). Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
19
Atomic Orbitals 1s orbital electrons are most stable (lowest in energy) The 1s orbital is full once there are two electrons in it. The 2s orbital is filled next. The 2s orbital has a node. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
20
Atomic Orbitals Once the 2s is full, electrons fill into the three degenerate (equal energy) 2p orbitals The nodes are the “pinch” points Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
21
Atomic Orbitals Common elements and their electron configurations

22
Atomic Orbitals The rules that govern our placement of electrons:

23
Valence Bond Theory The bond for a H2 molecule results from constructive interference Where do the bonded electrons spend most of their time? Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
24
Valence Bond Theory A bond: constructive orbital overlap.
Like overlapping waves in Lake Michigan Only constructive interference results in a bond Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Klein, Organic Chemistry 2e
25
Molecular Orbital Theory
H2 molecule. Imagine He2, stable or unstable? Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
26
Hybridized Atomic Orbitals
p orbitals form pi (π) bonds CONSTRUCTIVE interference = Binding molecular orbital DESTRUCTIVE interference = Antibonding molecular orbital MO theory orbitals Red and blue regions: parts of the same orbital Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
