Compounds with multiple bonds

The most important compound with a is ethyne also known as ; it is used in the oxy acetylene torch.

Bombykol, is another natural product that contains double bonds. We will examine the structure of these materials shortly Compounds of and with less tha 2n+ 2 other than cyclic

Is there any other way of satisfying the octet for carbon in a with a formula

C2H4 or C2H2? How many groups around each C? 3 (bonding are not considered to be a group) H H C :: C H H What’s the geometry? triangular

How about C2H2?

How many groups around each C? 2 CH ≡ HC

What’s the geometry? linear ethene or

What does ethylene have to do with fruit? A systematic way of naming alkenes and identifying identical structures

1. Locate the longest carbon chain in the molecule that contains the double bonds: this identifies the parent

2. Identify the points of branching and count the number of in each branch; name the branches in the normal way: methyl, ethyl ... 3. Give the the lowest number 4. Identify any

parent: 4 carbons: CH2 CH3 groups: 2 carbons: ethyl H2C C location: double bond at position 1; ethyl at 2 CH2

CH3 2-ethyl-1-butene no stereochemistry to describe Are these two compounds the same?

All these formulas for are identical because of rapid rotation about C-C bonds

If the two groups are on the same side of the double bond, use cis On opposite sides, use trans no, rotation about C=C bonds does not occur CH2-CH3 CH parent: H2C CH2 groups: ethyl, chloro

2 -methyl-5-isopropyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene Dill Anethum graveolens (Umbelliferae) Dill is a thin, annual originating in the Middle East. Since recorded history it has been cultivated as a medicinal and aromatic herb. It was spread through Europe by way of the monasteries. The picture on the left shows a 'broad-leafed' variety, the original type has completely thready leaflets. The fresh dill leaves and flowers contain an essential whose main component is (-)-alpha-phellandrene (ca. 60 %). Draw structures for the following compounds:

1- 2-methyl-1,7-octadiene 1,2- Compounds of carbon with multiple bonds to other elements

Oxygen double bonded to carbon is called a (C=O)

If the carbon of the carbonyl group is attached to two other carbon atoms the compound is called a ,

An contains a carbonyl group (C=O), which is a carbon with a double bond to an atom, attached to at least one hydrogen. O Carboxylic contain the carboxyl group, which is a carbonyl group attached to a hydroxyl group. O

acetic or ethanoic acid

In an , the hydrogen on oxygen is replaced by a carbon atom.

A attached to a carbonyl group is called an ; the other two groups attached to nitrogen can be either both N carbons, hydrogens or a mix of both carbon and hydrogen A few reactions of unsaturated compounds:

Adding H2 to double bonds in vegetable produces compounds with higher melting points solids at room temperature, such as , soft margarine, and shortening.

This makes them less reactive and less prone to become rancid; rancidness is due to reaction of the double bonds with oxygen
