Octahedral 6 Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Model - useful for predicting geometries of molecules formed from nonmetals The valence electron pairs around a central atom can be ● Lone pairs ● Bonded pairs (or groups in the case of bonds of higher order) Each group or pair of electrons can be considered an electron domain. It is the number of electron domains around a central atom that dictates the shape of the molecule. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Model - useful for predicting geometries of molecules formed from nonmetals Main postulate of the model is that the structure around a given atom is determined principally by minimizing electron-pair repulsions. The electrons around a central atom in a molecule are attracted to the nuclei of the central and surrounding atoms, but repelled by each other. The molecule naturally finds a shape that brings the valence electron pairs as close to the nuclei as possible, while keeping them as far away as possible from other valence electrons. Molecular Geometry (handout) Look at the bond angles in molecules containing lone pairs and compare them to molecules with the same number of electron domains that are all bonds. Propose an explanation for the trends in bond angles. Molecular Geometry - actual experimental data Molecular Geometry (more information from textbook) Propose an explanation for the trends in bond angles. One interpretation of the trend Lone pairs require more space than bonding pairs (as the number of lone pairs increase, the bonding pairs are increasingly squeezed together.) Makes sense - bonding pair shared between 2 nuclei, and electrons can be close to either nucleus. A lone pair is localized to only one nucleus, and both electrons will be close only to that nucleus, so takes up more space. One interpretation of the trend Lone pairs require more space than bonding pairs (as the number of lone pairs increase, the bonding pairs are increasingly squeezed together.) Makes sense - bonding pair shared between 2 nuclei, and electrons can be close to either nucleus. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Model - useful for predicting geometries of molecules formed from nonmetals Main postulate of the model is that the structure around a given atom is determined principally by minimizing electron-pair repulsions. Add: Lone pairs require more room than bonding pairs and tend to compress the angles between the bonding pairs.

Also - multiple bonds (double, triple) count as one effective electron pair (electron domain). One more thing: When a molecule exhibits resonance, any one of the resonance structures can be used to predict the molecular structure using the VSEPR model.

The atomic radii of the metals are: Au 135 pm Pd 140 pm a) A particular ring is made from an alloy that is 75 mole percent gold and 25 mole percent palladium. Using the box below, draw a particle-level diagram of the solid alloy consisting of 12 atoms with a representative proportion of atom types. Your diagram should clearly indicate whether the alloy is interstitial or substitutional. Use empty circles for gold and and shaded circles for palladium. 1. 12 circles about the same size in a regular array, fill the box as best you can - 9 empty and 3 shaded. 3:1; substitutional; radii approx. same size 2 2. Propanoic acid, C2H5COOH, is an organic acid that is liquid at room temperature. a. An incomplete Lewis diagram for the propanoic acid molecule is provided in the box below. Complete the diagram, showing how the remaining atoms in the molecule are arranged around the carbon atom marked with an asterisk (*). Your structure should minimize formal charge and include any lone pairs of electrons. 2.a C2H5COOH Ve = 3 C(4) + 6(H) + 2 O(6) =30 Used so far 14 so Remaining at 30 - 14 = 16 2.a C2H5COOH Ve = 3 C(4) + 6(H) + 2 O(6) =30 Used so far 14 so Remaining at 30 - 14 = 16 Need to add OOH - H has to be terminal atom 2.a C2H5COOH Ve = 3 C(4) + 6(H) + 2 O(6) =30 So now used 20 electrons Re = 30 - 20 =10 Satisfy C* octet first leaving 8 electrons 2.a C2H5COOH Satisfy C* octet first leaving 8 electrons Then 2 lone pairs on each O atom. 2.a C2H5COOH Check number of electrons used and that each atom has an octet - duet for H. 1 Drat - need to do more reading and notes. b) hybridization of C with asterix. 1 2. Initial thoughts - pencil in. c) intermolecular forces - dispersion (everything has) also dipole-dipole forces (since its a polar molecule) and hydrogen bonds. 2. Answer c) i) The intermolecular forces in propanoic acid will be hydrogen bonds, dipole-dipole forces and London dispersion forces (LDF). 2. Answer - compared to butanoic acid 2 c) ii) The hydrogen-bonding and the dipole-dipole forces will be similar in both propanoic and butanoic acid. The forces responsible for the lower boiling point of propanoic acid compared to butanoic acid are the London dispersion forces since the propanoic acid has a smaller carbon chain and hence a smaller electron cloud to disperse. 3. Answer the following questions about N2 and N2H4. a. In the box below, draw the complete Lewis electron-dot diagram of N2. Ve = 10 Re = 10 - 2 = 8 if put 2 lone pairs on each N the neither will have an octet. What else can I do? Try a double bond N - N 3. Answer the following questions about N2 and N2H4. a. In the box below, draw the complete Lewis electron-dot diagram of N2. Ve = 10 Re = 10 - 4 = 6 3 more pairs to use... N = N 3. Answer the following questions about N2 and N2H4. a. In the box below, draw the complete Lewis electron-dot diagram of N2. Ve = 10 Re = 10 - 4 = 6 one lone pair each and one more bond - bingo! All octets done. 2 3. a) Based on the Lewis-electron-dot diagram that you drew, is the N2 molecule polar? Explain. The N2 molecule consists of 2 nitrogen atoms which have identical electronegativities, so the electron bonding pairs in the molecule will be evenly shared between the 2 nitrogen atoms and each N has one nonbonding electron pair so the molecule has symmetrical electron density and hence the molecule will be non-polar. 1 The following graph shows the potential energy of two nitrogen atoms versus the distance between their nuclei. On the graph, indicate the distance that corresponds to the bond length of the N2 molecule by placing an X on the horizontal axis. The response shows an X drawn on the axis and located directly above the lowest part (minimum) of the potential energy curve. X The lowest potential energy on the curve corresponds to the most stable intermolecular distance (i.e. bond length). 1 d) On the graph, which shows the potential energy curve of two N atoms, carefully sketch a curve that corresponds to the potential energy of two O atoms versus the distance between their nuclei. Need a curve similar shape but with: 2 d) On the graph, which shows the potential energy curve of two N atoms, carefully sketch a curve that corresponds to the potential energy of two O atoms versus the distance between their nuclei. Need a curve similar shape but with: a minimum to the right of where the given curve has its minimum (because the length of the O-O double bond is greater than that of the N-N triple bond. Minimum value of curve needs to be higher than the minimum of the given curve (O=O not as strong as the N-N triple bond). 2 e) N2 can react with H2 to form the compound, N2H4. A sample of N2H4 has a mass of 25g. Identify the numerical quantity that is needed to convert the number of grams of N2H4 to the number of moles of N2H4. (You do not need to do the calculation.) e) N2 can react with H2 to form the compound, N2H4. A sample of N2H4 has a mass of 25g.

A Ph.D. thesis is by no means a singular achievement; I wish to extend my wholehearted thanks to everyone who has made this journey possible. First and foremost, I must thank my Ph.D. advisor, Prof. John Bercaw. I think more so than anything else, I respect John for his character, sense of fairness, and integrity. I also benefitted greatly from John’s laissez-faire approach to guiding our research group; I’ve always learned best when left alone to screw things up, although John also has an uncanny ability for sensing when I need direction or for something to work properly on the high-vac line. John also introduced me to hiking and climbing in the Eastern Sierras and Owens Valley, which remain amongst my favorite places on Earth. Thanks for always being willing to go to the Pizza Factory in Lone Pine before and after all the group hikes! While I never worked on any of the BP projects that were spearheaded by our co-PI Dr. Jay Labinger, I must also thank Jay for coming to all of my group meetings, teaching me an incredible amount while I was TAing Ch154, and for always being willing to talk chemistry and answer tough questions.

  • Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc
    Metal-Metal (MM) Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc Richard H. Duncan Lyngdoh*,a, Henry F. Schaefer III*,b and R. Bruce King*,b a Department of Chemistry, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong 793022, India B Centre for Computational Quantum Chemistry, University of Georgia, Athens GA 30602 ABSTRACT: This survey of metal-metal (MM) bond distances in binuclear complexes of the first row 3d-block elements reviews experimental and computational research on a wide range of such systems. The metals surveyed are titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, and zinc, representing the only comprehensive presentation of such results to date. Factors impacting MM bond lengths that are discussed here include (a) n+ the formal MM bond order, (b) size of the metal ion present in the bimetallic core (M2) , (c) the metal oxidation state, (d) effects of ligand basicity, coordination mode and number, and (e) steric effects of bulky ligands. Correlations between experimental and computational findings are examined wherever possible, often yielding good agreement for MM bond lengths. The formal bond order provides a key basis for assessing experimental and computationally derived MM bond lengths. The effects of change in the metal upon MM bond length ranges in binuclear complexes suggest trends for single, double, triple, and quadruple MM bonds which are related to the available information on metal atomic radii. It emerges that while specific factors for a limited range of complexes are found to have their expected impact in many cases, the assessment of the net effect of these factors is challenging.

  • Representation of Three-Center−Two-Electron Bonds in Covalent Molecules with Bridging Hydrogen Atoms Gerard Parkin*
    Article Cite This: J. Chem. Educ. 2019, 96, 2467−2475 pubs.acs.org/jchemeduc Representation of Three-Center−Two-Electron Bonds in Covalent Molecules with Bridging Hydrogen Atoms Gerard Parkin* Department of Chemistry, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Many compounds can be represented well in terms of the two-center−two-electron (2c−2e) bond model. However, it is well-known that this approach has limitations; for example, certain compounds require the use of three- center−two-electron (3c−2e) bonds to provide an adequate description of the bonding. Although a classic example of a compound that features a 3c−2e bond is provided by − fi diborane, B2H6,3c 2e interactions also feature prominently in transition metal chemistry, as exempli ed by bridging hydride compounds, agostic compounds, dihydrogen complexes, and hydrocarbon and silane σ-complexes. In addition to being able to identify the different types of bonds (2c−2e and 3c−2e) present in a molecule, it is essential to be able to utilize these models to evaluate the chemical reasonableness of a molecule by applying the octet and 18-electron rules; however, to do so requires determination of the electron counts of atoms in molecules. Although this is easily achieved for molecules that possess only 2c− 2e bonds, the situation is more complex for those that possess 3c−2e bonds. Therefore, this article describes a convenient approach for representing 3c−2e interactions in a manner that facilitates the electron counting procedure for such compounds. In particular, specific attention is devoted to the use of the half-arrow formalism to represent 3c−2e interactions in compounds with bridging hydrogen atoms.

Summary CHEMISTRY PAPER No. 1: ORGANIC CHEMISTRY- I (Nature of Bonding and Stereochemistry) Module No. 3: Hyper-Conjugation 1. Learning Outcomes After studying this module you shall be able to: Understand the concept of hyperconjugation. Know about the structural requirements in a molecule to show hyperconjugation. Learn about the important consequences and applications of hyperconjugation. Comprehend the concept of reverse hyperconjugation. 2. Introduction In conjugation, we have studied that the electrons move from one p orbital to other which are aligned in parallel planes. Is it possible for electron to jump from p orbital to sp3 orbital that are not parallelly aligned with one another? The answer is yes. This type of conjugation is not normal, it is extra-ordinary. Hence, the name hyper-conjugation. It is also know as no-bond resonance. Let us study more about it. 3. Hyperconjugation The normal electron releasing inductive effect (+I effect) of alkyl groups is in the following order: But it was observed by Baker and Nathan that in conjugated system, the attachment of alkyl groups reverse their capability of electron releasing. They suggested that alkyl groups are capable of releasing electrons by some process other than inductive.

The atoms are then held together by coulombic forces in an ionic bond – More often the only way an atom can gain electrons is by sharing. This sharing produces a covalent bond CHEM 1000 3.0 Chemical Bonding I 3 •1 Lewis Symbols • This is a way of representing the valence electrons in an element – It does not include the inner shell electrons – It does not include the spin of an electron – e.g. Si ([Ne]3s 23p 2) Si – N ([He]2s 22p 3) N CHEM 1000 3.0 Chemical Bonding I 4 Lewis Structures • These are the combination of Lewis symbols that represents the sharing or transfer of electrons in a molecule – Examples – Ionic bond Na x + Cl [Na] + [ x Cl ] - – Covalent bond Hx + Cl H x Cl CHEM 1000 3.0 Chemical Bonding I 5 Ionic Compounds • We don’t usually see isolated ionic compounds – Normally they are in crystals where one anion (negative) is attached to several cations (positive) and vice versa.

  • Conjugated Molecules
    Conjugated Molecules - Conjugated molecules have alternating single and multiple (i.e. double or triple) bonds. Example 1: Nomenclature: 2,6-dimethylhepta-2,5-diene This molecule is not conjugated because it does not have alternating single and multiple bonds (the arrangement of the bonds starting from C2 is double, single, single and double). Between the two double bonds, there is a saturated center (C4) and two intersecting single bonds. Example 2: Nomenclature: 2,5-dimethylhexa-2,4-diene This molecule is conjugated because the arrangement of the bonds starting at C2 is double, single, and double. They are alternated. Example 3: Nomenclature: (2E)-hept-2-en-5-yne note: (2E) is a stereochemical identifier. The letter “E” indicates the arrangement of the double bond (where E usually refers to trans and Z refers to cis). The number “2” indicates the position of the double bond. This molecule is not conjugated because the single and multiple bonds are not alternated. Example 4: Nomenclature: (2Z)-hex-2-en-4-yne This molecule is conjugated because there is an alternation of multiple and single bonds (double, single, and triple starting from C2). More examples: note: the term conjugation refers to parts of the molecule. If you can find one conjugated system within the molecule, that molecule is said to be conjugated. Example: In this molecule, the double bond A is not conjugated. However, since double bond B is conjugated with double bond C, the molecule is said to be conjugated. Special Nomenclature: The Letter "S" stands for “single” and indicates that we are talking about the conjugated double bonds.

  • II. Nomenclature Rules for Alkenes 1. the Parent Name Will Be the Longest
    1 Lecture 9 II. Nomenclature Rules For Alkenes 1. The parent name will be the longest carbon chain that contains both carbons of the double bond. Drop the -ane suffix of the alkane name and add the –ene suffix. Never name the double bond as a prefix. If a double bond is present, you have an alkene, not an alkane. alkane + -ene = alkene 2. Begin numbering the chain at the end nearest the double bond. Always number through the double bond and identify its position in the longest chain with the lower number. In the older IUPAC rules the number for the double bond was placed in front of the stem name with a hyphen. Under the newer rules, the number for the double bond is placed right in front of “ene”, with hyphens. We will use the newer rules for specifying the location of pi bonds. 1 2 3456 H3CCHCH CH 2 CH2 CH3 hex-2-ene (newer rules) 2-hexene (older rules) 3.
