(b) Explain why this compound has a high boiling point. Hydrogen bonding exists between the polar hydroxyl groups on cholesterol molecules. Extra energy is required to overcome these strong intermolecular forces of attraction, and therefore the boiling point is high. Additionally, cholesterol is a large molecule containing a large number of electrons, which leads to relatively strong London forces existing between cholesterol molecules. As more energy is therefore required to separate the molecules, the boiling point is higher.

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.

    Chemical Bonding • Petrucci, Harwood and Herring: Chapters 10 and 11 • Aims: – To look at bonding and possible shapes of molecules • We will mainly do this through Lewis structures – To look at ionic and covalent bonds – Use valence shell electronic structure to predict shapes of molecules CHEM 1000 3.0 Chemical Bonding I 1 Chemical Bonding • The most important concepts here are: – Electrons, particularly valence electrons play a fundamental role in chemical bonding. – When elements combine to produce compounds they are attempting to achieve a valence shell like a noble gas CHEM 1000 3.0 Chemical Bonding I 2 Chemical Bonding • The driving force for the production of chemical bonds is the need for an atom to complete a valence shell (usually 8 electrons) – Often electrons can be transferred from one atom to another to make ions. 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.
