You will notice the first thing the 3.5 standard says is :
You will be expected to know the principles of Organic Chemistry you covered in AS 2.5
How well do you know your stuff from last year?
The standard then goes on to say….

Organic compounds described are limited to those containing no more than 8 carbon atoms
Don’t think you get off that easy
It then goes on to say ………
Larger organic molecules may be used in questions involving the application of organic principles (e.g. the identification of functional groups)

Cyclic Alkanes
These are Alkanes with at least 1 ring of carbons eg cyclohexane
Draw the structure of cyclohexane in your book?
Cyclohexane
Draw cyclopropane
The general formula for an alkane with one ring is:
CnH2n
![Page 11: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Do you remember how to name a branched alkane?
Steps
1. Find the longest chain of continuous carbons (called the parent chain) and name it:
ie 5 carbons – name pentane
2. Identify any side branches or functional groups
ie methyl if there are more than one of the same type use prefixes
di (2) , tri (3) etc. 2 methyls = dimethyl.
So the name so far is dimethylpentane
3. Number the parent chain from the end that gives the side branch groups the lowest number
Pentane (parent chain)
methyl
methyl
![Page 12: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Steps continued
3. Number the parent chain from the end that gives the side branch groups the lowest number ie from the left
methyl
methyl
1 2
3 4 5
4. Separate numbers by comma’s and separate numbers from words with a dash – now you can name it

Geometric Isomers will only occur if….
The compound has a double or triple bond where there can be no rotation around the
C C bond
Remember alkanes don’t exhibit geometric isomerism because there is rotation around the single C C bond
Geometric (cis and trans) Isomers
![Page 34: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
e.g. The Geometric Isomers of but-2-ene
cis-but-2-ene trans-but-2-ene
Bpt 3.7o C Bpt 0.88 o C
* Geometric isomers have similar chemical properties but different physical properties
To exist as geometrical isomers the C atoms at both ends of the double bond must each have two different groups (or atoms attached).
![Page 35: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Geometric isomerisim does not occur if one of the carbon atoms in the fixed (ie the double bond) has two identical atoms or groups of atoms attached
But-1-ene does not have geometric isomers, because it has two groups, H atoms, attached to the C atoms on either side of the double bond
Therefore but-1- ene does not have geometric isomers
flip it over and it’s the same as
![Page 36: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Geometric isomers are a form of stereoisomerisim
Stereoisomerism – are where the atoms are bonded in the same sequence but are arranged differently in space in a molecule.
e.g. but-2-ene
cis-but-2-ene trans-but-2-ene
Same sequence of atoms
Two different geometric isomers exist where atoms are arranged differently in space

Geometric isomers have the same chemical properties, but different physical properties. Why?
Because cis isomers have bulky side groups and cannot be packed closely together, this causes weaker intermolecular forces between molecules and therefore lower melting points than the trans version

However cis forms are sometimes polar (as above) and therefore have stronger intermolecular forces between molecules causing higher melting points.

E,Z Nomenclature of bond geometryIn cis and trans – nomenclature the ‘like” groups are identified and used to specify the type of isomer.With E,Z rules the pair of substituent's at each end of the double bond are given a priority.Highest priority = atom of highest atomic no attached directly to the double bondEg 2-chloro-3-methylpent-2-ene
C
Cl CH3
C
CH2 -CH3CH3
1st pair Cl highest priority
2nd pair CH2CH3 highest priority
This isomer has the highest priority groups on opposite sides of double bond therefore is the E isomer
The Z isomer has the highest priority groups on the same side of the double bond

Optical Isomerism
Optical isomers involve an asymmetric carbon – a carbon bonded to four different atoms or groups of atoms such as:
H, OH, CH3, C2H5, C3H7 etc
A molecule with an asymmetric carbon is known as a chiral molecule. The two forms of the chiral molecule are known as enantiomers or optical isomers

Glucose is an optically active compound.
On the straight-chain form of glucose shown here, all four of the carbons in the middle of the chain are chiral centres – they each have four different groups attached to them.

Four different groups can be arranged around a central atom in two different ways. These are optical isomers and are mirror images of each other and cannot be superimposed — just as your left and right hands are mirror images and cannot be superimposed.
The structure for glucose shows four chiral centres, which means a total of 16 different forms are possible. Glucose is just one of those forms.
![Page 52: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Molecules which have one or more chiral centres

If we add a second grill at right angles to the first, it will block the red wave.
Two polarising filters placed at right angles will block all light.
![Page 54: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Two sheets of polarising film are placed on an overhead projector stage. The arrows on the sheets show their orientation.
On the left we see that when the two sheets are orientated in the same direction light passes through them, but when the sheets are at right angles (right) the light is blocked.
![Page 55: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Beakers of water and sucrose solution (which is cheaper than glucose and also optically active) are placed on a sheet of polarising film sitting on the overhead stage. A second sheet of polarising film is on top of the beakers, at right angles to the first.
![Page 56: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Water Sucrose
Although the film above the water beaker is dark, light shines through the film above the sucrose solution.
The sucrose has rotated the light waves sufficiently so that they are able to pass through the second film.
![Page 57: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
When we rotate the top sheet, the film above the sucrose solution is now dark, while light passes through everywhere else.
Water Sucrose

Different wavelengths (colours) of light are rotated by different amounts, so that as the polarising film is rotated by different angles, we see these different colours.
Remember:
• Optically-active solutions rotate plane-polarised light
• optical isomers rotate plane-polarised light by equal angles in opposite directions.
![Page 59: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Optical Isomer Properties
Many organic compounds have optical isomers including hormones and enzymes involved in biochemical reactions. The shape of a molecule is very important in these reactions and this means that the mirror image (ie the optical isomer) of an enzyme will not work properly in the body.
![Page 60: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Optical Isomer Properties
Optical isomers have identical chemical and physical properties except that they rotate the plane of polarised light in opposite directions.
Optical isomers react differently with other optically active compounds.
an equal mixture of both enantiomers is called a racemic mixture

In fact, only one of the two optical isomers of thalidomide appear to cause these birth defects, although it could be that once ingested each isomer readily changes into the other form. Today thalidomide is being used successfully as a treatment for leprosy (although not for pregnant women).
The drug thalidomide, prescribed as a treatment for morning sickness in early pregnancy in the 1960s, tragically caused the development of serious birth defects (badly deformed limbs, or none at all).

Alkane Reactions
Alkanes are used as fuels and undergo combustion reactions
In excess air (oxygen) they form the products H2O and CO2
In limited air (oxygen) they form the products H2O and C or CO2
Because the carbon atoms in alkane molecules are saturated with hydrogens (ie they don’t have any double or triple bonds) they are called saturated hydrocarbons.

Alkane Reactions
Because alkanes have no double bonds they react slowly with halogens in the presence of UV light.
This reaction is called a substitution reaction in which an H atom is replaced by a halogen atom (eg Cl or Br)
butane + bromine
bromobutane + hydrogen bromide
What’s missing in this reaction?
The bromine solution decolourises slowly and the HBr formed is an acidic gas that turns moist blue litmus red
UV

These are unsaturated hydrocarbons
This means they have at least one double or triple covalent bond
These types of bonds are called functional groups because it’s at these bonds that reactions occur
Alkenes (CnH2n) and Alkynes ( Cn H2n - 2 )
![Page 74: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Like alkanes these unsaturated hydrocarbons are non polar and insoluble in water.
They undergo combustion the same as alkanes giving the same products
They have very similar physical and chemical properties to alkanes
Form addition reactions because of the reactive double or triple bond
Alkenes exhibit a different form of isomerism called geometric isomerisim

Hydrogenation of an Alkene (Addition reaction)
Hydrogen can be added across the double C bond
The conditions for this reaction are:
• platinum catalyst
• 150 - 200 O C
• pressure of 4 atmospheres
The reaction is
C2H4(g) + H2(g) CH3CH3(g)
ethene ethane

The Good Oil
This hydrogenation process is
used to harden plant oils to commercially produce margarine.
Natural plant oils contain many double bonds per molecule, and because several double bonds exist after hydrogenation, the margarine is said to be polyunsaturated.
![Page 78: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Bromination of an Alkene (Addition reaction)
Alkenes and alkynes undergo addition reactions with halogens to form a dihaloalkane (or tetrahaloalkane).
The common test for an unsaturated hydrocarbon (ie a hydrocarbon with a C C or C C bond) is therefore the rapid decolourisation of an orange bromine solution in the absence of sunlight
The reaction is
CH2H4(g) + Br2(l) CH2 Br CH2 Br (l)
ethene 1,2-dibromoethane
![Page 79: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Alkene molecules can create polymers (plastics) by addition reactions where many alkene monomer units are joined together in the presence of heat and a catalyst
![Page 80: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
The process involves the breaking of one of the bonds in the double bond in each alkene molecule.
Each of the two electrons from the bond go to each end of the molecule to create a bond with another molecule that has undergone the same process.
This creates long chains of joined monomers to create a polymer.

Haloalkanes do not form hydrogen bonds, so they have lower boiling points than alcohols and are not miscible in water.
However, they are polar compounds, so have higher boiling points than their parent alkanes. The lowest mass haloalkanes are gases at room temperature, but the rest are volatile liquids.

• Haloalkanes are relatively nonpolar overall (despite the polarity of the C-X bond) and are insoluble in water.
A monohaloalkane eg. 2-bromopropane can be formed by:

Like tertiary alcohols, tertiary haloalkanes are easily substituted.
A tertiary haloalkane will react with cold water to form an alcohol:
R—X + H2O → R—OH + HX
We can tell whether this reaction has taken place by the presence of the X– ions, which will form precipitates with silver nitrate solution.

• Tertiary haloalkanes form alcohols in cold water
• Secondary haloalkanes react when the water is warm
• Primary haloalkanes do not react with water, but react to form alcohols with aqueous sodium hydroxide.

Nucleophiles
A nucleophile is any species which loves nuclei, that is anything attracted to a positive charge.
Nucleophiles are therefore species that carry a negative charge or a lone pair of electrons,
eg OH- , H2O and NH3 (in alcohol)
The C -X bond is polar and the slighty positive C atom is prone to attack from a negative nucleophile.
eg
R X(l) + OH- (aq) R OH + X- (aq)

Elimination to form an alkene
Haloalkanes can also undergo an elimination with hydroxide to form an alkene:
R—X + alcOH– → R’=C + HXUse the above reaction as a template to write your own formation of an alkene from a haloalkane
![Page 103: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
When deciding where to put the double bond in an elimination reaction, apply the rule ‘the poor get poorer’.
One carbon of the double bond will be the carbon that lost the halogen.
To decide whether the bond goes to the left or right of that carbon, look at the number of hydrogen atoms on each of those carbons.
The carbon to lose the hydrogen atom (and thus become the other half of the double bond) is that carbon which has the fewer hydrogen atoms already bonded to it.

Amines (aminoalkanes)
Amines are named as substituents eg aminomethane, CH3NH2.
These may be classed as primary, secondary or tertiary, but unlike the haloalkanes the classification depends on the number of C atoms attached to the N atom. Primary RNH2, secondary R2NH, tertiary R3N.

Amines (aminoalkanes)
Amines have an unpleasant “fishy” smell. The smaller amines, up to C5, are soluble in water but larger
amines are insoluble, as the size of the non-polar hydrocarbon chain cancels out the effect of the polar amino functional group.
Like ammonia itself, water soluble amines form alkaline solutions. They react with water by proton transfer to form OH- ions. This means aqueous solutions of amines turn litmus blue.
RNH2 + H2O RNH3+ + OH

Amines also react with acids to form salts.
CH3NH2 + HCl CH3NH3+
Cl
aminomethane methyl ammonium chloride
The formation of an ionic salt increases the solubility of the amine in acidic solutions (compared to their solubility in water).
This is why we put lemon juice onour fish to get rid of the amine smell

Formation of amines
Another nucleophilic substitution reaction occurs between haloalkanes and alcoholic ammonia:
R—X + NH3(alc) → R—NH2 + HX
amineWhy do you think the ammonia has to be alcoholic?
It must be alcoholic ammonia: if water is present the alcohol could be formed instead.

Alkene Reactions
Alkenes react readily by adding small molecules across the double C C bond.
These reactions are known as addition reactions because molecules add “across” the double bond

Haloalkanes are molecular substances, so they do not contain free X– ions.
When silver nitrate solution is added to 1-bromo-butane no cream precipitate of silver bromide forms.
![Page 116: Chemistry 3.5 Describe the structure and reactions of organic compounds containing selected organic groups.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55141143550346e7488b5079/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
When silver nitrate solution is added to 2-chloro, 2-methyl propane, the water in the solution reacts with the haloalkane, forming an alcohol and releasing chloride ions which then react with the silver nitrate to form a white precipitate.

Primary haloalkanes can also be converted into alcohols, but a stronger nucleophile is needed: OH–.
Dilute sodium hydroxide solution is added to 1-bromo butane and shaken.
