ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

I. Introduction. A. General

1. Chemistry of the compounds of carbon except CO32-, SCN - OCN -, and CN - .

a. Carbon is the smallest element in group 14.

Tends to form strong homonuclear bonds

Bonds are slow to break ( high activation energies for C−C cleavage).

b. All organic compounds are unstable to combustion. They react with O2 to give

CO2, H2O, and oxides of other elements.

2. In compounds C can be bonded to 2, 3 or 4 other elements.

a. Bonding possibilities.

Lewis Diagram Bond Type Hybridization Geometry

− C ≡ triple+single sp linear

= C = 2 doubles sp linear

C = 2 singles+double sp2 trigonal planar

− C − 4 singles sp3 tetrahedral

B. Types of organic compounds.

1. Hydrocarbons − contain only C and H.

a. Alkanes −all C's form only single bonds, the C's are sp3 hybridized.

b. Alkenes − Have at least one C=C, at least two C's are sp2 hybridized.

c. Alkynes − Have at least one C≡ C, at least two C's are sp hybridized.

2. Functional group compounds.

a. Replace a H on a hydrocarbon with a group of atoms other than C and H.

b. Such groups are called functional groups. They impart the specific chemical

reactivity to the compound.

structures, the electrons are delocalized about the ring. This is

indicated by a circle in the hexagonal ring.

does not act as a typical olefin. The π bonds are unreactive.

Important both industrially and biologically. b. Includes polyesters, polyethers, polyamides and polypeptides. 2. Polyesters. a. Formed by the reaction of a diacid and a dialcohol. The general equation is: O O O O || || || || n H-O-C-R-C-O-H + n H - O- R'- O - H -----> -[-C-R-C-O-R'-O-]n- b. A specific example is Dacron which is the polymer formed between the dialcohol,

ethylene glycol ( HOCH2CH2OH ), and the diacid, terethphalic acid.

Polypeptides - Proteins. a. Alpha amino acids. 1) Structure. general formula of an alpha amino acid is H O | || R − C − C − O − H | NH2

The term alpha is derived from a old system of nomenclature that designates the carbon next to the carboxyl group as the alpha ( α ) carbon.] 2) Nomenclature. H O | || H − C− C − O − H aminoethanoic acid (glycine) | ΝΗ2

H O | || CH3− C − C − O − H 2 - aminopropanoic acid (alanine) | NH2

In naming the amino acids the common names are usually used instead of the IUPAC ones. 3) For all alpha amino acids other than glycine the alpha carbon is surrounded by four different groups. Whenever a tetrahedral center is surrounded by four different groups a type of isomerism called optical isomerism exists. Consider such a center and its mirror image shown below.

Note that the two mirror images are nonsuperimposible. The two are optical isomers or enantiomers. The compound is said to be optically active or chiral. 4) For simple molecules, the only difference between the two compounds is their ability to rotate the plane of polarized light. One isomer will rotate the plane to the right ( is dextrorotatory) and is called the D isomer, while the other isomer, the L isomer, rotates the plane a like amount to the left( is levorotatory). A 50:50 mixture of the two isomers, called a racemic mixture, will not exhibit optical activity. 5) In more complex reactions, such as enzyme catalysed reactions, the stereoisomers can be distinguished. 6) Whenever a carbon is bonded to four different groups the particular molecule is chiral. Some examples (the chiral carbon is in bold): H H Cl | | | CH3CH2CCH2CH2CH2CH3 CH3CCH2CH3 CH3C–H | | | CH3 OH Br
