Structure Determines Properties
• Organic compounds all contain carbon
CO, CO2 , carbonates and carbides are inorganic
other common elements are H, O, N, (P, S)
• Carbon has versatile bonding patterns
chains, rings, multiple bonds
chain length nearly limitless
• Carbon compounds generally covalent
molecular; gases, liquids, or low melting solids;
varying solubilities; nonconductive in liquid
• C - C bonds unreactive (very stable)

Carbon Bonding
• mainly forms covalent bonds
• C is most stable when it has 4 single covalent bonds,
but does form double and triple bonds
 C=C and C≡C are more reactive than C−C
 C with 4 single bonds is tetrahedral,
 2 singles and 1 double is trigonal planar
 2 doubles or 1 triple and 1 single is linear
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
6
Hydrocarbons
• hydrocarbons contain only C and H
 aliphatic or aromatic
• insoluble in water
no polar bonds to attract water molecules
• aliphatic hydrocarbons
 saturated or unsaturated aliphatics
saturated = alkanes, unsaturated = alkenes or alkynes
 may be chains or rings
chains may be straight or branched
• aromatic hydrocarbons

Saturated Hydrocarbons
• a saturated hydrocarbon has all C-C single
bonds
it is saturated with hydrogens
• saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons are called
alkanes
• chain alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
9
Unsaturated Hydrocarbons
• unsaturated hydrocarbons have one of more C=C
•
double bonds or CC triple bonds
unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons that contain C=C
are called alkenes
 the general formula of a monounsaturated chain alkene is
CnH2n
 remove 2 more H for each additional unsaturation
• unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons that contain CC
are called alkynes
 the general formula of a monounsaturated chain alkyne is
CnH2n-2
 remove 4 more H for each additional unsaturation

Formulas
• molecular formulas just tell you what
•
•
kinds of atoms are in the molecule, but
they don’t tell you how they are attached
structural formulas show you the
attachment pattern in the molecule
models not only show you the attachment
pattern, but give you an idea about the
shape of the molecule
15
Condensed Structural Formulas
• attached atoms listed in order
 central atom with attached atoms
• follow normal bonding patterns
 use to determine position of multiple bonds
• () used to indicate more than 1 identical
group attached to same previous central
atom
 unless () group listed first in which case
attached to next central atom
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
16
Line-Angle Formulas
• each angle, and beginning and end represent a C
atom
• H omitted on C
included on functional groups
• multiple bonds indicated
double line is double bond, triple line is triple bond

Stereoisomers
• stereoisomers are different molecules whose
atoms are connected in the same order, but have
a different spatial direction
• optical isomers are molecules that are
nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other
• geometric isomers are stereoisomers that are
not optical isomers
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
27
Nonsuperimposable Mirror Images
mirror image cannot be rotated so all its atoms align
with the same atoms of the original molecule
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
28
Chirality
• any molecule with a nonsuperimposable mirror
image is said to be chiral
• any carbon with 4 different substituents will be
a chiral center
• a pair of nonsuperimposable mirror images are
called a pair of enantiomers

Plane Polarized Light
• light that has been filtered so that only those
waves traveling in a single plane are allowed
through
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
31
Optical Activity
• a pair of enantiomers have all the same physical
properties except one – the direction they rotate the
plane of plane polarized light
 each will rotate the plane the same amount, but in opposite
directions
 dextrorotatory = rotate to the right
 levorotatory = rotate to the left
• an equimolar mixture of the pair is called a racemic
mixture
 rotations cancel, so no net rotation
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
32
Chemical Behavior of Enantiomers
• a pair of enantiomers will have the same
chemical reactivity in a non-chiral environment
• but in a chiral environment they may exhibit
different behaviors
enzyme selection of one enantiomer of a pair

Naming
• each name consists of 3 parts
 prefix
indicates position, number, and type of branches
indicates position, number, and type of each functional group
 parent
indicates the length of the longest carbon chain or ring
 suffix
indicates the type of hydrocarbon
– ane, ene, yne
certain functional groups
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach
36
Naming Alkanes
1) Find the longest continuous carbon chain
2) Number the chain from end closest to a branch
 if first branches equal distance use next in
3) Name branches as alkyl groups
 locate each branch by preceding its name with
the carbon number on the chain
4) List branches alphabetically
 do not count n-, sec-, t-, count iso
5) Use prefix if more than one of same group
present
 di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa
 do not count in alphabetizing

•
•
restricted, you will have different molecules if groups
have different spatial orientation about the double bond
this is often called cis-trans isomerism
when groups on the doubly bonded carbons are cis,
they are on the same side
when groups on the doubly bonded carbons are trans,
they are on opposite sides

Reactions of Hydrocarbons
• all hydrocarbons undergo combustion
• combustion is always exothermic
about 90% of U.S. energy generated by combustion
2 CH3CH2CH2CH3(g) + 13 O2(g) → 8 CO2(g) + 10 H2O(g)
CH3CH=CHCH3(g) + 6 O2(g) → 4 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(g)
