Alkenes

Alkenes
• Contain at least one C=C double bond
• General formula: CnH2n (like cycloalkanes)
• Each carbon atom in a C=C double bond is sp2 hybridized
 bond
 bonds
E
• The double bond consists of a  bond and a  bond
•  bond from head-on overlap of sp2 orbitals
•  bond from side-on overlap of p orbitals
A  bond is stronger than a  bond.
 bond
C
 bond
• Rotating a double bond requires breaking the  bond
• NO FREE ROTATION at room temperature
C
Alkene Nomenclature (Naming)
2-hexene
3-butyl-2,4-hexadiene
1. Parent chain = longest chain that includes the double bond(s)
2. The double bonds have priority and must have the lowest

number(s) possible
The first C atom in the C=C bond indicates the double bond’s
location (or number in naming)
Name, number, & alphabetize substituents as usual
Replace –ane ending with –ene ending
– Two double bonds: -diene; three double bonds: -triene
Put double bond number in front of entire root name
(i.e. 2-pentene indicates the double bond starts on carbon 2)
Cyclic alkenes: number the atoms in the ring starting with the
double bond

3,4-dimethyl-1,3-pentadiene
2,4-hexadiene
4-isopropyl-3,5-dimethyl1,3,5-heptatriene
Cis-trans isomerism in alkenes
• Substituents will stay on the same or opposite sides of
the double bond (no C=C bond rotation)

trans- 2-butene
(opposite sides)
• For cis-trans isomerism, each C in the double bond must have
2 different substituents attached (i.e. a C and a H, etc.)
• Determining cis or trans: follow the parent chain through the
double bond

Arranging many double bonds
• Cumulated
C=C double bonds all in a row: C=C=C=C
• Conjugated
Single and double bonds alternate: −C=C−C=C−C=C−
• Isolated
>1 single bond between double bonds: −C=C−C−C=C−C−C=C−
Lycopene
11 conjugated double bonds
2 isolated double bonds

• Alkanes – substitution reactions
– R-H + A-B  R-A + H-B
– R = “residue”, a generic alkyl group
