1 Organic Chemistry Chapter 10: The Alkanes Part 01: Intro to Organic Chemistry

2 Organic chemistry Study of carbon-containing compounds Name comes from the belief that these compounds had to originate in living material

3 Organic chemistry 1828 – Friedrich Wohler German chemist Made an organic compound in laboratory from inorganic materials Urea (used by all mammals to excrete unused nitrogen from protein in foods) http://player.discoveryeducation.com/index.cfm?guidAssetId=BB9A9E5A-AC81-4327-A0AA-F6C32892D849&blnFromSearch=1&productcode=US

4 Organic chemistry NH 4 Cl(aq) + AgCNO(aq)  NH 4 CNO(aq) + AgCl(s) NH 4 CNO(aq)  NH 2 CONH 2 (aq) heat Molecular rearrangement

5 Organic chemistry More than 12,000,000 known organic compounds, both natural and man- made So many organic compounds because carbon is very unique.

6 Carbon Can form 1, 2, 3 or 4 bonds. Can form single, double or triple bonds Can bond with itself infinitely Can bond with many nonmetals (H, O, S, N, P & halogens) Forms extremely stable bonds Can form compounds of many geometries

7 Manufacturing organic compounds Most synthetic organic compounds are derived from the following: – Ethylene- toluene – Propylene- xylene – Butylene- methane – Benzene

8 Organic vs. Inorganic Compounds More numerous (>12,000,000) More complex Covalent bonding Low melting points Low boiling points Generally – Volatile/odorous – Flammable – Insoluble in water Slow reactions Side reactions common Less numerous Simple formulas Usually ionic High melting points High boiling points Generally – Nonvolatile – Nonflammable – Soluble in water Fast reactions Side reactions uncommon

9 Organic vs. Inorganic Compounds Acetylene ethanol Diethyl ether Acetone Formaldehyde Benzene Acetic acid Chalk Baking soda Lye Epsom salts Plaster of paris salt
