    Study Notes

    Organic Chemistry - Unit 1

    • Structural Isomers: Compounds with the same chemical formula but different structures. Example: Hexane and 2-Methylpentane.

    Functional Groups

    • Alcohols: Contain a hydroxyl (-OH) group bonded to a carbon atom. Example: Ethanol (CH3CH2OH).
    • Aldehydes: Contain a carbonyl group (carbon double bonded to an oxygen) attached to a hydrogen and a carbon group.
    • Ketones: Contain a carbonyl group (carbon double bonded to an oxygen) attached to two carbon groups.
    • Carboxylic Acids: Contain a carboxyl (-COOH) group. Example: Acetic Acid (CH3COOH).
    • Esters: Contain a (-COO-) group between two carbon chains. Example: Ethyl Acetate (CH3COOCH2CH3).
    • Amines: Contain an amino (-NH2) group. Example: Methyl Amine (CH3NH2).
    • Amides: Contain a (-CONH2) group. Example: Acetamide (CH3CONH2).

    Other Functional Groups

    • Alkenes: Two carbons with a double bond.
    • Alkynes: Two carbons with a triple bond.
    • Ethers: Contain an oxygen atom bonded to two carbon atoms.
    • Halides: Contain a halogen (F, Cl, Br, or I) bonded to a carbon.
    • Thiols: Contain a sulfur atom bonded to a hydrogen and a carbon.
    • Phenol: A hydroxyl group attached to an aromatic/benzene ring

    Reactions in Organic Chemistry

    • Oxidation Reactions:
      • Primary alcohols become aldehydes during oxidation.
      • Secondary alcohols become ketones during oxidation.
      • Tertiary alcohols do not undergo oxidation.
      • Aldehydes become carboxylic acids during oxidation.
    • Addition Reactions: Alkenes and alkynes can react with other molecules under specific conditions like heat or light to add atoms or groups to them.
      • Hydrogenation: Adding hydrogen (H2).
      • Hydration: Adding water (H2O).
      • Halogenation: Adding halogens (Cl2 or Br2).
    • Substitution Reactions: Nucleophilic Substitution: A nucleophile (strong electron donor) attacks an alkyl halide replacing the halide. Electrophilic Substitution - The replacement of a hydrogen in the ring by an electrophile.

    Summary Table of Functional Groups

    Compound Type Functional Group Example Structure
    Amines -NH2 Methylamine (CH3NH2) CH3-NH2
    Amides -CONH2 Acetamide (CH3CONH2) CH3-C-NH2
    Ketones C=O Acetone (CH3COCH3) CH3-C-CH3
    Aromatics Benzene ring Benzene (C6H6) C6H6
    Esters -COO- Ethyl Acetate (CH3COOCH2CH3) CH3-C-O-CH2CH3

    Unit 2: Atomic Structure & Chemical Bonding

    • Electron Configurations (Neutral + Cation) for Copper and Chromium: Copper (Cu) [Ar] 4s1 3d10, Copper 2+ [Ar] 3d9, Chromium (Cr) [Ar] 4s1 3d5, Chromium 3+ [Ar] 3d3
    • Intermolecular Forces: London Dispersion, Dipole-Dipole, and Hydrogen bonds.
    • How to Identify Intermolecular Bonds:
      • Nonpolar molecules: Dispersion forces.
      • Polar molecules: Dispersion and dipole-dipole forces.
      • Molecules with O-H, N-H, or F-H bonds: Dispersion, dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonding

    Unit 3: Kinetics

    • Temperature effects on equilibrium: For exothermic reactions, raising temperature decreases the equilibrium constant (K). For endothermic reactions, raising temperature increases K.
    • Catalysts: Catalysts do not change the position of equilibrium or the equilibrium constant (K), they do not alter ΔH, they only speed up the reaction
    • Le Chatelier's principle: The system will shift equilibrium to minimize the stress or change exerted upon it. A change in concentration, temperature, or pressure of reactants or products will result in the movement of the equilibrium.

    Unit 4: Acids and Bases

    • Redox reactions: Changes in oxidation numbers of elements, involving loss and gain of electrons.
    • No redox reaction: Oxidation numbers of all elements remain unchanged
