Ambon, MAT, LPT The Key Functional Groups Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups Functional groups are structural units within organic compounds that are defined by specific bonding arrangements between specific atoms. ✓As ha already been indicated, alkanes are relatively unreactive. ✓For an organic molecule to be reactive it needs something additional. ✓A site of reactivity in an organic molecule is called functional group. Ex. C=C is a functional group. ✓Other functional groups contain elements other than C or H. Like O, N, Cl ,etc. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups Class Functional group Alcohol R – OH Ether R — O — R’ Aldehyde O || R—C—H Ketone O || R — C — R’ Carboxylic acid O || — C — OH Ester O || R — C — O — R’ Amine R’ | R — N — R’’ Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT HALO ALKANES The functional group of alkyl halides is a carbon-halogen bond, the common halogens being fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides Alkyl Halide Properties Alkyl halides are colourless when they exist in pure form. But, bromides and iodides develop colour when exposed to light. Many volatile halogen compounds have a sweet smell. Boiling and Melting Points ✓ Methyl chloride, methyl bromide, ethyl chloride and some chlorofluoromethanes are in the form of gas at room temperature. ✓ Higher members are liquids or solids. ✓ As we know, molecules of organic halogen compounds are polar in nature. ✓ Due to greater polarity and greater molar mass as compared to the parent hydrocarbon, the intermolecular force of attraction is stronger in halogen derivatives. ✓ So, the boiling points of chlorides, bromides and iodides are considerably higher than that of the hydrocarbon with the same molecular mass. ✓ The attraction gets stronger as the size and number of electrons increase. ✓ The boiling points of alkyl halides will decrease in the order RI > RBr > RCl > RF. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides Density ✓Bromo-derivatives, iodo derivatives and polychloro derivatives of hydrocarbons are heavier than water. ✓The density increases with an increase in the number of carbon atoms, halogen atoms and atomic mass of halogen atoms. Solubility ✓The haloalkanes are less soluble in water. ✓To dissolve haloalkanes in water, energy is required to overcome the attraction between the haloalkane molecule and break the hydrogen bonds between the water molecules for haloalkanes. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides Chemical Reactions The chemical reaction of haloalkanes can be divided into three categories: 1. Nucleophilic substitution reaction 2. Elimination reaction 3. Reaction with metals Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides The Position of Halogen Atom Along the Chain of Carbon Atom The classification depends on how the halogen atom is positioned on the chain of carbon atoms. Primary alkyl halide Secondary alkyl halide Tertiary alkyl halide Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides Primary Alkyl Halide In this type of haloalkanes, the carbon which is bonded to the halogen family will be attached to only one other alkyl group. It doesn’t matter how much a bulky group is attached to it. Some examples of primary haloalkanes are, ▪ Primary Alkyl Halide Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides Secondary Alkyl Halide In this type of haloalkanes, the carbon atom, which is bonded with the halogen atom, is joined directly to the other two alkyl groups, which can be the same or different. Some examples are, Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alkyl Halides Tertiary Alkyl Halide In this type of haloalkanes, the carbon atom which carries the halogen atom is directly bonded to three alkyl groups. This alkyl group may be a combination of the same or different. Some examples are, Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Families of organic compounds and their functional groups Alcohols ROH Alkyl halides RX (X = F, Cl, Br, I) Amines primary amine: RNH2 secondary amine: R2NH tertiary amine: R3N Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Alcohol In the alcohol functional group, a carbon is single-bonded to an OH group (the OH group, by itself, is referred to as a hydroxyl). Except for methanol, all alcohols can be classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary. In a primary alcohol, the carbon bonded to the OH group is also bonded to only one other carbon Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups alcohol, phenol and thiol Note that the definition of a phenol states that the hydroxyl oxygen must be directly attached Prepared to B. Ambon, MAT, by: Prof. Myra LPT Functional Groups Amines are characterized by nitrogen atoms with single bonds to hydrogen and carbon. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Amines Just as there are primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols, there are primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. Ammonia is a special case with no carbon atoms.

Ambon, MAT, LPT Many classes of organic compounds contain a carbonyl group O O C C R Carbonyl group Acyl group Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups There are a number of functional groups that contain a carbon-oxygen double bond, which is commonly referred to as carbonyl Ketones and aldehydes are two closely related carbonyl-based functional groups that react in very similar ways. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B. Ambon, MAT, LPT Functional Groups In a ketone, the carbon atom of a carbonyl is bonded to two other carbons. In an aldehyde, the carbonyl carbon is bonded on one side to a hydrogen, and on the other side to a carbon. The exception to this definition is formaldehyde, in which the carbonyl carbon has bonds to two hydrogen. Prepared by: Prof. Myra B.
