1 Organic Chemistry (Chapter 3)
Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. Biochemistry is the study of carbon compounds that crawl. 

2 Carbon Carbon’s 4 valence e- make if ideal for bonds: endless combinations of proteins, lipids, carbs, and nucleic acids Carbon forms the skeleton of most organic molecules Forms stable bonds! Diverse: Carbon chains vary in length and shape; can form chains or rings

3 Organic Compounds - have carbon bonded to other atoms and determine structure/function of living things Inorganic Compounds - do not contain carbon and hydrogen together (salt)

4 Some organic molecules

5 Attached to the carbon skeleton is a FUNCTIONAL GROUP - the area that participates in chemical reactions Functional group is a specific combination of bonded atoms that always react in the same way R = the remainder of the molecule, the carbon skeleton Pg 39

6 alcohols acids bases

7 One carbon chain, single bonds; 2 functional groups
Functional groups help determine function by determining bonds and therefore shapes of molecule. The general structure of an α-amino acid, with the amino group on the left and the carboxyl group on the right One carbon chain, single bonds;  2 functional groups

8 You should know their base names:
They are alphabetical: a, e, y 1, 2, 3 bonds ALKANE  consists of only carbon to carbon single bonds C- C- C -C -C ALKENE   consists of at least one carbon to carbon double bond   C = C - C ALKYNE consists of at least one carbon to carbon triple bond

9 QOD Why is carbon so important to organic molecules?
What is the significance of functional groups? Name the 4 macromolecules.

10 ISOMERS – molecules with the same molecular formula, but different arrangement of atoms

11 Careful, those words are so similar!
Isotopes: atoms with same protons but different neutrons ex: Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 Ion: charges atom- lost or gained an electron Isomer: same molecular formula, different structure

12 What is a MACROMOLECULE

13 What do these words mean?
Micro MACRO

14 Biological Macromolecule
All biological macro-molecule are made up of a small number of elements: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Sulfur

15 Next Word….. Polymer

16 MANY "Poly" Polygons Polyester Polygamy Means...

17 What does “Mono” mean? 1

18 A Polymer EXAMPLE of POLYMER MONOMER A TRAIN THE CARS A NECKLACE
Here are some analogies to better understand what polymers and monomers are…. EXAMPLE of POLYMER MONOMER A TRAIN THE CARS A NECKLACE EACH PEARL EXAMPLE of POLYMER MONOMER A TRAIN A NECKLACE If the train is the whole polymer, what would be the small groups that make up the train? If the necklace is the polymer, what are the monomers that make up the necklace?

19 MACROMOLECULES -   Monomers link together to form polymers
one unit many units   Dehydration reaction – water is removed, joins monomers together Hydrolysis – water attaches to a polymer and breaks it into smaller units

20 Dehydration- requires energy, releases water
Hydrolysis- releases energy, requires water

21

22 Oxidation Involves Loss Reduction Involves Gain
Reaction Types Hydrolysis - break down compounds by adding water Dehydration - two components brought together, produces H2O Redox Rxn– electron transfer reactions             Oxidation Involves Loss Reduction Involves Gain OIL   RIG

23 Some Molecules

24 MACROMOLECULES important to life
1. Carbohydrates 2. Lipids 3. Proteins 4. Nucleic Acids This is bozeman, he knows stuff about biology and makes podcasts.  He has podcasts for every topic we cover.  It's amazing!

25 Daily energy supply! pasta, potatoes, cereal, grains
1. CARBOHYDRATES CHO monosaccharides - simple ring sugars, glucose fructose, galactose C6H12O6 disaccharides - two monosaccharides combined, sucrose, lactose, maltose polysaccharides - polymers (long chains of repeating units) of monosaccharides - starch (plants)  and glycogen (animals) are energy storage polymers - cellulose & chitin are structural polymers               Daily energy supply! pasta, potatoes, cereal, grains

26

27 animal Both are glucose polymers plant

28 2. Lipids C, H, O Phospholipids -
Hydrophobic (insoluble in water) Used for insulation and long term energy storage (fat)*  Fats* & Oils are made of subunits (monomers) – glycerol and fatty acids  Waxes – mainly used for covering and protection Phospholipids -  Important structural component of the cell membrane 

29 Steroids - cholesterol & sex hormones (estrogen & testosterone) – made of 4 fused rings

30 Saturated fats contain no double bonds, solid at room temperature;
Unsaturated fats have double bonds that “kink” the molecule,  liquid at room temperature

31 Fats Fats are the most concentrated energy source available to the body. Saturated fats: meats, cheese, somewhat unhealthy Unsaturated fats: healthy, found in plants Trans fats: very unhealthy fats

32

33 Lipids and Fatty Acids

34 3. Proteins C, H, O, N Monomer: amino acids
Two amino acids make a dipeptide Polymers: polypeptides which are joined by peptide bonds  Amino acids form a wide variety of structures, mainly building blocks for living tissue Support, Enzymes, Transport, Defense, Hormones, Motion

35

36 Proteins have four shapes
1. Primary Structure - sequence of amino acids that form the polypeptide chain 2. Secondary Structure - Parts of the polypeptide fold into local patterns (alpha helix or pleated sheet) 3. Tertiary Structure - the overall 3D shape (globular or fibrous) 4. Quaternary Structure - consists of two or more polypeptide chains or subunits

37 Proteins can be denatured, heat causes it to lose its shape, and its functionality (More on enzymes later) - all but primary structure is easily destroyed There are 20 known amino acids

38 Proteins

39 Nucleic Acids C, H, O, N, P Monomer: nucleotide
Polymers: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) & RNA (ribonucleic acid)  Each nucleotide consists of: 1.  A sugar (deoxyribose or ribose) 2.  A phosphate 3.  A nitrogen base            - adenine            - thymine            - guanine            - cytosine            - uracil (in RNA)

40

41 ATP (adenosine triphosphate) - high energy molecule that contains two phosphate bonds that are easily broken to release energy (this energy drives the reactions in our bodies)

42 a. carbohydrate b. lipids c. protein d. nucleic acids
MATCHING a.  carbohydrate     b.  lipids c.  protein               d.  nucleic acids 1.  contains adenine and thymine 2.  lactose 3.  chains of amino acids 4.  long term energy storage 5.  cholesterol 6.  chains of fatty acids and glycerol 7.  plant cell walls 7. Cellulose = carbohydrate
