Lecture 12A • 02/15/12 We’re going to continue our discussion of conjugation. If we go back and talk about electrons and how they act like waves, [there’s] something known as the particle in a box. You’ve got some kind of box where imagine that the walls are infinitely tall. It’s a one-dimensional system, where the electron, all it can do, is go left and right between the two walls of the box. The electron’s a wave; it can’t exist outside the box, so whatever function, whatever wave we use to describe the electron, has to have a value of zero at one end of the box and zero at the other end of the box. Graphically, what do the solutions look like? We have something like this, where we’re talking about energy potential; it’s infinite at either end of the box, and zero in between. We have an electron that’s bouncing around inside of it. An electron’s a wave, and there’s function that describes that wave. The only way it can fit in this box and physically make sense is if the wave starts and stops and the ends of the box. It turns out that – long, long, long story short – one of the solutions for the Schrödinger equation is just a sine function – actually, it’s part of an exponential version of a sine function. It’s something, at least, we can draw a pretty picture of. That’s why you’ll start with this problem in a discussion of quantum mechanics, because it is solvable, it is only on in dimension, and it’s more humanly possible to discuss.

Aromaticity Sem- Ii
AROMATICITY SEM- II In 1931, German chemist and physicist Sir Erich Hückel proposed a theory to help determine if a planar ring molecule would have aromatic properties .This is a very popular and useful rule to identify aromaticity in monocyclic conjugated compound. According to which a planar monocyclic conjugated system having ( 4n +2) delocalised (where, n = 0, 1, 2, .....) electrons are known as aromatic compound . For example: Benzene, Naphthalene, Furan, Pyrrole etc. Criteria for Aromaticity 1) The molecule is cyclic (a ring of atoms) 2) The molecule is planar (all atoms in the molecule lie in the same plane) 3) The molecule is fully conjugated (p orbitals at every atom in the ring) 4) The molecule has 4n+2 π electrons (n=0 or any positive integer Why 4n+2π Electrons? According to Hückel's Molecular Orbital Theory, a compound is particularly stable if all of its bonding molecular orbitals are filled with paired electrons. - This is true of aromatic compounds, meaning they are quite stable. - With aromatic compounds, 2 electrons fill the lowest energy molecular orbital, and 4 electrons fill each subsequent energy level (the number of subsequent energy levels is denoted by n), leaving all bonding orbitals filled and no anti-bonding orbitals occupied. This gives a total of 4n+2π electrons. - As for example: Benzene has 6π electrons. Its first 2π electrons fill the lowest energy orbital, and it has 4π electrons remaining. These 4 fill in the orbitals of the succeeding energy level. The criteria for Antiaromaticity are as follows: 1) The molecule must be cyclic and completely conjugated 2) The molecule must be planar.

Molecular Orbital Theory
Molecular Orbital Theory The Lewis Structure approach provides an extremely simple method for determining the electronic structure of many molecules. It is a bit simplistic, however, and does have trouble predicting structures for a few molecules. Nevertheless, it gives a reasonable structure for many molecules and its simplicity to use makes it a very useful tool for chemists. A more general, but slightly more complicated approach is the Molecular Orbital Theory. This theory builds on the electron wave functions of Quantum Mechanics to describe chemical bonding. To understand MO Theory let's first review constructive and destructive interference of standing waves starting with the full constructive and destructive interference that occurs when standing waves overlap completely. When standing waves only partially overlap we get partial constructive and destructive interference. To see how we use these concepts in Molecular Orbital Theory, let's start with H2, the simplest of all molecules. The 1s orbitals of the H-atom are standing waves of the electron wavefunction. In Molecular Orbital Theory we view the bonding of the two H-atoms as partial constructive interference between standing wavefunctions of the 1s orbitals. The energy of the H2 molecule with the two electrons in the bonding orbital is lower by 435 kJ/mole than the combined energy of the two separate H-atoms. On the other hand, the energy of the H2 molecule with two electrons in the antibonding orbital is higher than two separate H-atoms. To show the relative energies we use diagrams like this: In the H2 molecule, the bonding and anti-bonding orbitals are called sigma orbitals (σ).

Inorganic Chemistry/Chemical Bonding/MO Diagram 1
Inorganic Chemistry/Chemical Bonding/MO Diagram 1 Inorganic Chemistry/Chemical Bonding/MO Diagram A molecular orbital diagram or MO diagram for short is a qualitative descriptive tool explaining chemical bonding in molecules in terms of molecular orbital theory in general and the Linear combination of atomic orbitals molecular orbital method (LCAO method) in particular [1] [2] [3] . This tool is very well suited for simple diatomic molecules such as dihydrogen, dioxygen and carbon monoxide but becomes more complex when discussing polynuclear molecules such as methane. It explains why some molecules exist and not others, how strong bonds are, and what electronic transitions take place. Dihydrogen MO diagram The smallest molecule, hydrogen gas exists as dihydrogen (H-H) with a single covalent bond between two hydrogen atoms. As each hydrogen atom has a single 1s atomic orbital for its electron, the bond forms by overlap of these two atomic orbitals. In figure 1 the two atomic orbitals are depicted on the left and on the right. The vertical axis always represents the orbital energies. The atomic orbital energy correlates with electronegativity as a more electronegative atom holds an electron more tightly thus lowering its energy. MO treatment is only valid when the atomic orbitals have comparable energy; when they differ greatly the mode of bonding becomes ionic. Each orbital is singly occupied with the up and down arrows representing an electron. The two AO's can overlap in two ways depending on their phase relationship. The phase of an orbital is a direct consequence of the oscillating, wave-like properties of electrons.

The original meanings of the words "aliphatic" (fatty) and "aromatic" (fragrant/ pleasant smell). Aromatic compounds are benzene and compounds that resemble benzene in chemical behavior. Aromatic properties are those properties of benzene that distinguish it from aliphatic hydrocarbons. Benzene: A liquid that smells like gasoline Boils at 80°C & Freezes at 5.5°C It was formerly used to decaffeinate coffee and component of many consumer products, such as paint strippers, rubber cements, and home dry-cleaning spot removers. A precursor in the production of plastics (such as Styrofoam and nylon), drugs, detergents, synthetic rubber, pesticides, and dyes. It is used as a solvent in cleaning and maintaining printing equipment and for adhesives such as those used to attach soles to shoes. Benzene is a natural constituent of petroleum products, but because it is a known carcinogen, its use as an additive in gasoline is now limited. In 1970s it was associated with leukemia deaths.

Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just Like an Alkene, Benzene Has Clouds of  Electrons Above and Below Its Sigma Bond Framework
Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just like an alkene, benzene has clouds of electrons above and below its sigma bond framework. Although the electrons are in a stable aromatic system, they are still available for reaction with strong electrophiles. This generates a carbocation which is resonance stabilized (but not aromatic). This cation is called a sigma complex because the electrophile is joined to the benzene ring through a new sigma bond. The sigma complex (also called an arenium ion) is not aromatic since it contains an sp3 carbon (which disrupts the required loop of p orbitals). Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page1 The loss of aromaticity required to form the sigma complex explains the highly endothermic nature of the first step. (That is why we require strong electrophiles for reaction). The sigma complex wishes to regain its aromaticity, and it may do so by either a reversal of the first step (i.e. regenerate the starting material) or by loss of the proton on the sp3 carbon (leading to a substitution product). When a reaction proceeds this way, it is electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are a wide variety of electrophiles that can be introduced into a benzene ring in this way, and so electrophilic aromatic substitution is a very important method for the synthesis of substituted aromatic compounds. Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page2 Bromination of Benzene Bromination follows the same general mechanism for the electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS). Bromine itself is not electrophilic enough to react with benzene. But the addition of a strong Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor), such as FeBr3, catalyses the reaction, and leads to the substitution product.

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. Indicate the position of any substituent group by the number of the carbon atom in the parent (longest) chain to which it is attached. CH 1 2 345 3 H3CCHCHCHCH2 CH CH3 6 7 CH3 Numbering is determined by the double bond, not the branches, because the double bond has 5,6-dimethylhept-3-ene (newer rules) higher priority than any alkyl branch. 5,6-dimethyl-3-heptene (older rules) 4. Number cycloalkenes so that the double bond is 1,2 (number through the double bond). Number in the direction about the ring so that the lowest number is used at the first point of difference.

(a) l-pentene (b) 2-hexene (c) 2-methyl-2-hexene (d) 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene Alkynes Organic compounds containing carbon-carbon triple bonds are called alkynes. Like alkenes,alkynes are unsaturated compounds. This is the car- bon-carbon triple bond found in alkynes: -C:C- Allqmes are quite rare in nature. The simplest alkyne is the gasethlme, C2H2. The common name for ethyne is acetylene-the fuel burned in oxyacety- lene torches used in welding. The single bonds that extend from the car- bons involved in the carbon-carbon Figurel l .l0 triple bond of ethpre are separatedby (Fig. Ball-and-stickmodel of ethyne the maximum bond angle, IB0 degrees f f .10). Ethyne is a linear (commonname acetylene). molecule. The development of an orbital picture for ethyne requires us to go through the same steps that we used for methane and ethene: hybridiza- tion of carbon atomic orbitals and orbital overlap. As with methane and ethene,remember that each orbital representsone electron.The descrip- tion of ethyne that best flts the experimental data is obtained if the 2s atomic orbital of carbon is mixed with only one of the three available 2p atomic orbitals (Fig. f 1.11).The result of this mixing is two sp atomic orbitals; two 2p orbitals remain unused. Overlap of one of the sp hybrid orbitals of one carbon with that of another carbon producesa carbon-car- bon sigma bond.

Valence Bond Theory
Valence Bond Theory • A bond is a result of overlapping atomic orbitals from two atoms. The overlap holds a pair of electrons. • Normally each atomic orbital is bringing one electron to this bond. But in a “coordinate covalent bond”, both electrons come from the same atom • In this model, we are not creating a new orbital by the overlap. We are simply referring to the overlap between atomic orbitals (which may or may not be hybrid) from two atoms as a “bond”. Valence Bond Theory Sigma (σ) Bond • Skeletal bonds are called “sigma” bonds. • Sigma bonds are formed by orbitals approaching and overlapping each other head-on . Two hybrid orbitals, or a hybrid orbital and an s-orbital, or two s- orbitals • The resulting bond is like an elongated egg, and has cylindrical symmetry. Acts like an axle • That means the bond shows no resistance to rotation around a line that lies along its length. Pi (π) Bond Valence Bond Theory • The “leftover” p-orbitals that are not used in forming hybrid orbitals are used in making the “extra” bonds we saw in Lewis structures. The 2 nd bond in a double bond nd rd The 2 and 3 bonds in a triple bond /~harding/IGOC/P/pi_bond.html • Those extra bonds form only after the atoms are brought together by the formation of the skeletal bonds made by www.chem.ucla.edu hybrid orbitals. • The “extra” π bonds are always associated with a skeletal bond around which they form. • They don’t form without a skeletal bond to bring the p- orbitals together and “support” them.
