What is Organic Chemistry?
 “Organic”
is a term that is used in a
variety of ways:



“from living things”
“chemical free”
“carbon-based”
Organic Chemistry is the study of carbon-based compounds
Carbon

Carbon is in Group IV of the
periodic table

Carbon has 4 valence
electrons

Carbon can form 4 covalent
bonds

Carbon can form single,
double and triple bonds with
a wide variety of elements
forming nearly ten million
known compounds

Tetravalent Carbon
Because carbon has four
valence electrons, it forms
four bonds with other
elements to make up a full
valence shell of 8. All
valence electrons are
involved in bonding.
Hydrogen
atoms
This bonding leads to
tetrahedral shapes when all
of the bonds involved are
single bonds.
Hydrocarbons are made up of
carbon bonded to
hydrogen, but many
elements can and do take
the place of hydrogen.

Fractional Distillation
Crude oil contains a mixture
of hydrocarbons ranging
from one carbon (C1) up
to more than C24.
Fractional distillation allows
for these components or
‘fractions’ to be
separated using a
fractionating column.
In this process, heat is
applied to the bottom of
the column and lighter
compounds with lower
boiling points rise to the
top, while heavier
compounds remain
towards the bottom of
the column.

Hydrocarbons
Alkanes - hydrocarbons that
contain only single bonds (all  bonds
and no  bonds - saturated). The table

compounds that have the same

Alkane b.p. trend
As alkanes get larger in size, the
intermolecular forces increase due to a
greater amount of dispersion forces.
The table below and graph to the right
show the trend in boiling point for
simple, straight-chain alkanes.
The longer the chain, the greater the
forces between molecules
Types of Formulae
4 Types:

3.
4.
Empirical –this shows the ratio
of elements in the compound
Molecular – shows the actual
number of atoms in a
compound, but no
information about how they
are arranged
Structural – shows the
arrangement of elements
and all of the bonds between
them. Most appropriate
Condensed Structural – omits
some or all of the bonds and
may show identical groups
bracketed together. These
are not acceptable when
asked for a structural formula.

IUPAC
IUPAC – The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry is a group of Chemists
who devised a system of naming that allows for unique names to be applied to organic
compounds. There are many compounds that also have common names, but this
system allows us to speak a common language when naming these compounds. The
simple alkanes above are the simplest examples.
IUPAC - Naming hydrocarbons
Problem
Hexane C6H14 has 5
isomers. (See right)
How do we distinguish
between them?
Note: these are shorthand notations where each line
represents a bond between two carbon atoms
IUPAC “Quick” Rules for Alkane Nomenclature
1. Find and name the longest continuous carbon chain.
2. Identify and name groups attached to this chain. (These are called substituents.)
3. Number the chain consecutively, starting at the end nearest a substituent group.
4. Designate the location of each substituent group by an appropriate number and name.
5. Assemble the name, listing groups in alphabetical order using the full name (e.g. ethyl before
methyl). The prefixes di, tri, tetra etc., used to designate several groups of the same kind, are not
considered when alphabetizing.
Important notes:
• a hydrocarbon substituent becomes an alkyl group. (e.g. ethane becomes ethyl)
• Some substituents are “active sites” for reactions to occur (e.g. alcohols, ketones, alkenes) – these are
then also referred to as functional groups.

considered when alphabetizing.
IUPAC – Naming Alkenes
IUPAC Rules for Alkene and Cycloalkene Nomenclature
1. The ene suffix (ending) indicates an alkene or cycloalkene.
2. The longest chain chosen for the root name must include both carbon atoms of the double bond.
3. The root chain must be numbered from the end nearest a double bond carbon atom. If the double
bond is in the center of the chain, the nearest substituent rule is used to determine the end where
numbering starts.
4. The smaller of the two numbers designating the carbon atoms of the double bond is used as the
double bond locator. If more than one double bond is present the compound is named as a diene, triene
or equivalent prefix indicating the number of double bonds, and each double bond is assigned a locator
number.
5. In cycloalkenes the double bond carbons are assigned ring locations #1 and #2. Which of the two is
#1 may be determined by the nearest substituent rule.
6. Substituent groups containing double bonds are:
H2C=CH– Vinyl group
H2C=CH–CH2– Allyl group
But-1-ene
But-2-ene
Functional Groups
Functional groups are specific groups of atoms or bonds within a compound
that are responsible for characteristic chemical properties of those substances.

stronger IM forces than alkanes, but
weaker than alcohols.

hydrocarbons.
Again, a number is used to indicate the
position of the halogen on the carbon
chain. More than one halogen may be
present
