Classification of Organic Compounds

Alkenes• compounds that contain carbon and

hydrogen and have at least one C C ‑double bond.• low melting and boiling point,

insoluble in water, relatively reactive• Molecular formula is CnH2n

Important Alkenes

Ethylene (ethene)

α-Pinene

cis-tricos-9-ene, ‘‘muscalure’’

Alkene NomenclatureSimple alkenes are named much like

alkanes, using the root name of the longest chain containing the

double bond.

Ethylene (ethene)

Alkene Nomenclature• When the chain contains more

than three carbon atoms, a number is used to give the location of the double bond.

• The chain is numbered starting from the C closest to the double bond, and the double bond is given the lower number of its two double-bonded carbon atoms.

1-butenebut-1-ene

Alkene Nomenclature

Cycloalkenes are assumed to have the double bond in the number 1 position.cyclohexene

Alkene Nomenclature• A compound with two

double bonds is a diene. A triene has three double bonds, and a tetraene has four.

• Numbers are used to specify the locations of the double bonds.

1,3-butadienebuta-1,3-diene

Alkene Nomenclature Step 1

• Find the longest chain that contains both carbon atoms of the double bond.

Pentene

Alkene Nomenclature Step 2

• Number the carbon chain from the end(carbon) that gives the multiple bond the lower number.

Alkynes• compounds that contain carbon and

hydrogen and have at least one C C ‑triple bond.• Relatively not common in nature

compared to alkenes• Molecular formula is CnH2n-2

Alkynes• Non-polar, nearly insoluble in water.• Many have mildly offensive odors.• Used by some plants for protection

against fungal diseases.

Important Alkynes

Ethyne (acetylene)

methylacetylene

Alkyne NomenclatureThe IUPAC

nomenclature for alkynes is similar to that for alkenes. We

change the -ane ending of the parent

alkane to –yne.

Propyne

Alkyne Nomenclature Step 1

• Find the longest chain that contains both carbon atoms of the triple bond.

Alkyne NomenclatureIf a double bond and triple bond are on the same parent chain, naming priority will be given to the triple bond. The struture will be named as an alkyne.

1-penten-4-ynepent-1-en-4-yne

Alkyne NomenclatureIf the double bond and the triple bond are equidistant

from the ends of the chain, number the chain so that the double bond receives a lower number than the triple

bond (because “ene” comes before “yne” in the alphabet).
