NOMENCLATURE 1.Common system a.Works best for low molecular weight hydrocarbons b.Steps to give a hydrocarbon a common name: 1.Count the total number of carbon atoms in the molecule. 2.Use the Latin root from the following slide that corresponds to the number of carbon atoms followed by the suffix ane. 3.Unbranced hydrocarbons use the prefix normal, or n-, 4.Branched hydrocarbons use specific prefixes, as shown on a subsequent slide

NOMENCLATURE Common system Examples 1. Give a name for the following compound Step #1, count the number of carbons and write down the memorized Latin name for that number (next slide) Step #2, since this structure fits the alkane general formula, use the ane suffix propane Three carbon Latin root Alkane suffix

2. Systematic System of Nomenclature (IUPAC) Find the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms. Use a Latin root corresponding to the number of carbons in the longest chain of carbons. Follow the root with the suffix of ane for alkanes Carbon atoms not included in the chain are named as substituents preceding the root name with Latin root followed by yl suffix. Number the carbons, starting closest to the first branch. Name the substituent's attached to the chain, using the carbon number as the locator in alphabetical order. Use di-, tri-, etc., for multiples of same substituent. If there are two possible chains with the same number of carbons, use the chain with the most substituent's.

Substituent Names (Alkyl groups)

Which one? Systematic Nomenclature continued.

Which one? Systematic Nomenclature continued. The one with the most number of substituent's

Which one? Systematic Nomenclature continued. The one with the least number of substituent's The top structure has four substituent's and the bottom has three substituent's.

Which one? Systematic Nomenclature continued. The one with the least number of substituent's The top structure has four substituent's and the bottom has three substituent's. Name = ?

Which one? Systematic Nomenclature continued. The one with the most number of substituent's The top structure has four substituent's and the bottom has three substituent's. Name = ? heptane

Which one? Systematic Nomenclature continued. The one with the least number of substituent's The top structure has four substituent's and the bottom has three substituent's. Name = 3,3,5-trimethyl-4-propylheptane

Another Example: Name = 3-ethyl-2,6-dimethylheptane

Another Example: Name = 3-ethyl-2,6-dimethylheptane Notice substituent's are in alphabetical order; di, tri, etc. do not participate in the alphabetical order

Line Structures A quicker way to write structures' (Condensed Structure) (A line structure of the above condensed structure) ethyl methyl

Complex Substituent's If the branch has a branch, number the carbons from the point of attachment. Name the branch off the branch using a locator number. Parentheses are used around the complex branch name. 1-methyl-3-(1,2-dimethylpropyl)cyclohexane

Alkane Physical Properties Solubility: hydrophobic (not water soluble) Density: less than 1 g/mL (floats on water) Boiling points increase with increasing carbons (little less for branched chains) due to dispersion forces being larger. Melting points increase with increasing carbons (less for odd-number of carbons).

Boiling Points of Alkanes Branched alkanes have less surface area contact, so weaker intermolecular forces.

Melting Points of Alkanes Branched alkanes pack more efficiently into a crystalline structure, so have higher m.p.

Conformers of Alkanes Structures resulting from the free rotation of a C-C single bond May differ in energy. The lowest-energy conformer is most prevalent. Molecules constantly rotate through all the possible conformations.

Ethane Conformers Staggered conformer has lowest energy. Dihedral angle = 60 degrees model H H H H HH Newman projection sawhorse Dihedral angle

Ethane Conformers (2) Eclipsed conformer has highest energy Dihedral angle = 0 degrees =>

Conformational Analysis Torsional strain: resistance to rotation. For ethane, only 12.6 kJ/mol =>

Propane Conformers Note slight increase in torsional strain due to the more bulky methyl group.

Butane Conformers C2-C3 Highest energy has methyl groups eclipsed. Steric hindrance Dihedral angle = 0 degrees => totally eclipsed (methyl groups)

Butane Conformers (2) Lowest energy has methyl groups anti. Dihedral angle = 180 degrees => Staggered-anti

Butane Conformers (3) Methyl groups eclipsed with hydrogens Higher energy than staggered conformer Dihedral angle = 120 degrees => Eclipsed (hydrogen and methyl)

Butane Conformers (4) Gauche, staggered conformer Methyls closer than in anti conformer Dihedral angle = 60 degrees => Staggered-gauche

Conformational Analysis

Cycloalkanes Rings of carbon atoms (-CH 2 - groups) Formula: C n H 2n Nonpolar, insoluble in water Compact shape Melting and boiling points similar to branched alkanes with same number of carbons Slightly unsaturated compared to alkanes

Naming Cycloalkanes Count the number of carbons in the cycle If the bonds are single then use the suffix ane First substituent in alphabet gets lowest number. May be cycloalkyl attachment to chain.

Cis-Trans Isomerism (a type of stereoisomerism) Cis: like groups on same side of ring Trans: like groups on opposite sides of ring

Cycloalkane Stability 6-membered rings most stable Bond angle closest to Angle (Baeyer) strain Measured by heats of combustion per -CH 2 -

Heats of Combustion/CH 2 Alkane + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 O kJ/mol kJ Long-chain

Cyclopropane Large ring strain due to angle compression Very reactive, weak bonds =>

Cyclopropane (2) Torsional strain because of eclipsed hydrogens

Cyclobutane Angle strain due to compression Torsional strain partially relieved by ring puckering =>

Cyclopentane If planar, angles would be 108, but all hydrogens would be eclipsed. Puckered conformer reduces torsional strain.

Cyclohexane Combustion data shows its unstrained. Angles would be 120, if planar. The chair conformer has bond angles and all hydrogen's are staggered. No angle strain and no torsional strain.

Disubstituted Cyclohexanes

Cis-Trans Isomers Bonds that are cis, alternate axial-equatorial around the ring. => One axial, one equatorial

Bulky Groups Groups like t-butyl cause a large energy difference between the axial and equatoria l conformer. Most stable conformer puts t-butyl equatorial regardless of other substituents. =>
