  • Nomenclature Worksheet Part 2-Binary Molecular Compounds
    Nomenclature Worksheet Part 2-Binary Molecular Compounds. When two different elements combine, they form a binary compound. We have seen some ionic binary compounds such as sodium chloride, NaCl, or copper(II) oxide, CuO. But, non-metals can also form binary compounds, the most famous of which is water, H2O. We have learned how to name binary ionic compounds. In this worksheet, we will practice naming binary molecular compounds. Binary molecular compounds are held together by covalent bonds. As in ionic compounds, the more metallic element is listed first, and the less metallic is listed second. This coincides with the concept of electronegativity (and the converse, electropositivity) that we discussed in class. So, another way of stating this is the more electropositive element is written first followed by the more electronegative element. An example of this is SF6, Notice that sulfur is more electropositive than fluoride and is written first. If both elements are in the same group, the element with the higher period number goes first. We see this in the formulas of SO2 and IBr. Binary molecular compounds differ from ionic compounds in a key way: we can’t use charge to name the compound. So how will we distinguish CO2 from CO, NO2 from N2O? We will use need a different system from ionic nomenclature. In ionic nomenclature, we use charges and the position on the periodic table to indicate the number and types of ions in the compounds. The charges are whole numbers. Binary molecules can have fractional charges and multiple compounds for the combination of elements.

Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry, Leninsky Prospekt 47, Moscow 117913, Russia 3. Department of Chemistry, Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, London SW7 2AY, United Kingdom E-mail: [email protected] Received: 2 August 2000 / Uploaded: 3 August 2000 The preparation of new heterocyclic systems by conventional ways is normally a hard work that implies many synthetic steps and expensive starting materials. Even more, many heterocyclic systems, being predictably stable, are impossible to be prepared because the synthetic approach simply does not exist. There is a very different approach to get new heterocyclic systems that uses simple organic starting materials (tertiary amines, alicyclic oximes) bearing a nucleophilic nitrogen which generates reactive intermediates, subsequently trapped by a inorganic reagent, disulfur dichloride (S2Cl2). In general, trapping of intermediates is followed by extensive dehydrogenation and chlorination to give new intermediates that can be trapped by selected nucleophiles on the way to stable final products.1-2 A good combination of reagents and reaction sequences permits the preparation of heterocycles that imply up to fifteen different steps all working sequentially in a one-pot reaction. The best example of this chemistry is the reaction of N-ethyldiisopropylamine (Hünig’s base), with disulfur dichloride.3-4 The first step is a slow oxidation of the amine to an immonium salt by a combination of disulfur dichloride and DABCO (diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane).

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis is primarily concerned with the synthesis of binary and ternary transition metal and main-group metal chalcogenides (excluding oxides) at room temperature. Bulk material was sought using both elemental combination and metathetical reactions, in either liquid ammonia or n-butylamine. In addition, solid-state metathesis reactions were employed in the synthesis of a selection of low valent transition metal chalcogenides. Elemental combination reactions at room temperature afforded a simple, reproducible single- stage preparation of a range of transition and main-group metal chalcogenides in good yield (> 90%). Products were either highly crystalline (c) or X-ray amorphous {a) in nature. In most cases, annealing the X-ray amorphous powders at 200-250 °C for 2h was found to induce sufficient crystallinity for characterisation by X-ray powder diffraction.
