Carbon forms stable, covalent bonds with other carbon atoms Carbon can form up to 4 covalent bonds with other carbon atoms 2. Carbon atoms form stable bonds with other elements, such as: Oxygen Nitrogen Sulfur Halogen The presence of these other elements confers ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education many new physical and chemical properties on Why are there so many organic compounds? Reason 3 3. Carbon atoms form double or triple bonds with other atoms to produce a variety of structures with differing properties: Double Bonds: Triple Bonds: ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Why are there so many organic compounds? Reason 4 4. The number of ways to arrange carbon and other atoms is nearly limitless: Branched chains Ring structures Linear chains Two organic compounds may even have the same number and kinds of atoms but completely different structures and thus, different properties These are called isomers ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Important Differences Between Organic and Inorganic Compounds Bond type Organics have covalent bonds (electron sharing) Inorganics usually have ionic bonds (electron transfer) ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Structural Differences Between Organic and Inorganic Compounds Structure Organics Molecules Nonelectrolytes Inorganics Three-dimensional crystal structures Often water-soluble, dissociating into ions - electrolytes ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Physical Differences Between Organic and Inorganic Compounds Melting Point & Boiling Point Organics have lower melting points Intermolecular forces broken fairly easily Inorganics usually have higher melting points Ionic bonds require more energy to break Water Solubility Organics Nonpolar, water insoluble Inorganics Water-soluble, readily dissociate ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Comparison of Major Properties of Organic and Inorganic Compounds Table 10.1 Comparison of the Major Properties of a Typical Organic and an Inorganic Compound: Butane Versus Sodium Chloride Property Organic Compound Inorganic Compound (Butane) (Sodium Chloride) Molar Mass 58 g/mol 58.5 g/mol Bonding Covalent (C4H10) Ionic (Na+ and Cl- ions) Physical state at Gas Solid room temperature and atmospheric pressure Boiling Point Low (-0.5°C) High (1413°C) Solubility in water Insoluble High (36 g/100 mL) Solubility in High Insoluble organic solvents (e.g. hexane) Flammability Flammable Nonflammable Electrical Nonconductor Conducts electricity in conductivity ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education solution and in molten Hydrocarbons Hydrocarbons contain only carbon and hydrogen They are nonpolar molecules Not soluble in water (water is polar) Are soluble in typical nonpolar organic solvents Toluene Pentane ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Substituted Hydrocarbons Hydrocarbons are constructed of chains or rings of carbon atoms with sufficient hydrogen atoms to fulfill carbon’s need for four bonds Substituted hydrocarbon is one in which one or more hydrogen atoms is replaced by another atom or group of atoms ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Division of the Family of Hydrocarbons ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Hydrocarbon Saturation Alkanes are compounds that contain only carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen single bonds A saturated hydrocarbon has no double or triple bonds Alkenes and alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons because they contain at least one carbon to carbon double or triple bond ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Cyclic Structure of Hydrocarbons Some hydrocarbons are cyclic Form a closed ring Aromatic hydrocarbons contain a benzene ring or related structure ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Common Functional Groups ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education 10.3 Alkanes The general formula for a chain alkane is CnH2n+2 In this formula n = the number of carbon atoms in the molecule Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons Contain only carbon and hydrogen Bonds are carbon-hydrogen and carbon- carbon single bonds ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Formulas Used in Organic Chemistry Molecular formula - lists kind and number of each type of atom in a molecule, no bonding pattern: C2H6 C3H8 Structural formula - shows each atom and bond in a molecule ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Condensed and Line Formulas Condensed formula - shows all the atoms in a molecule in sequential order indicating which atoms are bonded to which CH3-CH3 CH3-CH2-CH3 Line formula - assume a carbon atom at any location where lines intersect Each carbon in the structure is bonded to the correct number of hydrogen atoms ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Names of First Ten Continuous- Chain Alkanes Table 10.3 Names and Formulas of the First Ten Straight- Chain Alkanes.

The base or parent name for an alkane is determined by the longest chain of carbon atoms in the formula The longest chain may bend and twist, it is seldom horizontal Any carbon groups not part of the base chain are called branches or substituents These carbon groups are also called alkyl groups ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education IUPAC Names for Alkanes – Rule 1 Rule 1 applied Find the longest chain in each molecule 8 Carbon 7 Carbon chain octane chain ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education heptane IUPAC Names for Alkanes – Rule 2 2.Number the carbon atoms in the chain starting from the end with the first branch If both branches are equally from the ends, continue until a point of difference occurs ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education IUPAC Names for Alkanes – Rule 3 3. Write each of the branches/substituents in alphabetical order before the base/stem name (longest chain) Halogens usually come first Indicate the position of the branch on the main chain by prefixing its name with the carbon number to which it is attached Separate numbers and letters with a ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education hyphen IUPAC Names for Alkanes: Example Name : 4-ethyl-2-methylhexane ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Write Name for Branched Alkane Hyphenated and number prefixes are not considered when alphabetizing groups Name the compound below: 5-sec-butyl-4-isopropylnonane ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Write IUPAC Name for Alkane Using Substituent Prefix Rule When a branch/substituent occurs more than once Prefix the name with di tri tetra Then list the number of the carbon branch for that substituent to the name with a separate number for each occurrence Separate numbers with commas e.g., 3,4-dimethyl or 4,4,6-triethyl ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Write IUPAC Name for Alkane Using Substituent Alphabetizing Rule 5-ethyl-2,3-dimethylheptane for order: ethyl before dimethyl ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Practice: Write IUPAC Name 6-ethyl-6-isobutyl-3,3-dimethyldecane ©2020 McGraw-Hill Education Practice: Draw from IUPAC Name 1 Draw the structural formula for 1-bromo-4- methylhexane.
