Bond Angles in Alkenes and AlkynesAccording to VSEPR theory: Three groups in a double

bond are bonded at 120° angles.

Alkenes are flat, because the atoms in a double bond lie in the same plane.

The groups attached to a triple bond are at 180° angles. Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc.

Naming Alkenes

Look and study the names of the following alkenes

Alkene IUPAC Common

H2C=CH2 ethene ethylene

H2C=CH─CH3 propene propylene

cyclohexene

CH2=CH─CH2─CH3 1-butene

CH3─CH=CH─CH3 2-butene

How is the naming of alkenes done? Talk over with your group members

Naming Alkynes

Now, let’s look at the case of alkynes. Naming is done in

a fashion similar to that of alkenes.

Summary: Naming Alkenes and Alkynes

Okay, so let’s summarize the rules for naming alkenes and alkynes. Here is what we do:

Name the longest carbon chain with a double or triple bond

Indicate the location of the double or triple bond in the main chain by number, starting at the end closer to the double or triple bond

Cycloalkenes do not require the numerical prefix but the bonds are given numbers 1 and 2

Give the location and name of each substituent (alphabetical order) as a prefix to the name

Cis and Trans Isomers

In an alkene, cis and trans isomers are possible

because the double bond Is rigid.

Cannot rotate.

Has groups attached to the carbons of the double bond that are fixed relative to each other.

CH3 CH3 CH3

CH = CH CH = CH

cis trans CH3

12

Cis-trans isomers occur when

different groups are attached to

the double bond.

In a cis isomer, groups are attached on the same side of the double bond.

In the trans isomer, the groups are attached on opposite sides.

Cis-Trans Isomers

13

Cis-Trans Isomerism

Cis-trans isomers do not occur if a carbon atom in the double bond is attached to identical groups.

21

Trans Fats

In vegetable oils, the unsaturated fats usually contain

cis double bonds.

During hydrogenation, some cis double bonds are converted to trans double bonds (more stable) causing a change in the fatty acid structure

If a label states “partially” or “fully hydrogenated”, the fats contain trans fatty acids.

When bromine (Br2) is added to an alkane, the red color of bromine persists.

When bromine (Br2) is added to an alkene or alkyne, the red color of bromine disappears immediately.

Also synthetic such as polyethylene and polystyrene, Teflon, and nylon.

Made up of small repeating units called monomers.
