Functional Groups Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 1 Elements in Organic Compounds In organic molecules, carbon atoms bond • with four bonds. • mostly with H and other C atoms. • sometimes to O, N, S, • sometimes to halogens F, Cl, and Br. 2 Functional Groups Functional groups are • a characteristic feature of organic molecules that behave in a predictable, similar way. • composed of an atom or group of atoms. • groups that replace a hydrogen atom in the corresponding alkane. • a way to classify families of organic compounds. 3 Alkenes and Alkynes Alkenes contain a double bond between adjacent carbon atoms. (Double bond: 4 electrons) Alkynes contain a triple bond. (Triple bond: 6 electrons) Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 4 Organic compounds with Carbon-Oxygen bonds 1. Alcohols An alcohol contains the hydroxyl (-OH) functional group. (instead of an H in that place) Ethanol Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings OH- vs -OH • OH- : hydroxide anion found in bases (e.g NaOH) • -OH: hydroxyl group colvalently bound to carbon atom in an organic compound (e.g. ethanol CH3-CH2OH) 6 2. Ethers In an ether, an oxygen atom is bonded to two carbon atoms. –C–O–C– . has a common name that gives the alkyl names of the attached groups followed by ether.

Aldehydes An aldehyde contains a carbonyl group (C=O), which is a carbon atom with a double bond to an oxygen atom. formaldehyde Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc.

Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 9 5. Carboxylic Acids and Esters Carboxylic acids contain the carboxyl group, which is a carbonyl group attached to a hydroxyl group. O ║ — C—OH Acetic acid Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 10 5. Esters An ester contains the carboxyl group between carbon atoms.

Amides In amides, the hydroxyl group of a carboxylic acid is replaced by a nitrogen group (-NH2). acetamide Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc.

CH3 CH = CH cis CH3 CH3 CH = CH trans CH3 17 Cis-Trans Isomers In cis-trans isomers • there is no rotation around the double bond in alkenes. • groups attached to the double bond are fixed relative to each other. You can make a “double bond” with your fingers with both thumbs on the same side or opposite from each other. 18 Cis-Trans Isomers Two isomers are possible when groups are attached to the double bond are different. (a double bond cannot rotate) • 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. 19 Cis-Trans Isomerism • Alkenes cannot have cis-trans isomers if a carbon atom in the double bond is attached to identical groups.

Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 22 Alcohols An alcohol contains a hydroxyl group (—OH) attached to a carbon chain. A phenol contains a hydroxyl group (—OH) attached to a benzene ring. Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings water alcohol phenol 23 Naming Alcohols The names of alcohols • in IUPAC replace the -e with -ol. • with common names use the name of the alkyl group followed by alcohol. Formula IUPAC CH4 methane CH3─OH methanol CH3─CH3 ethane CH3─CH2─OH ethanol Common Name methyl alcohol ethyl alcohol 24 Classification of Alcohols Classification of alcohols is • determined by the number of alkyl groups attached to the carbon bonded to the hydroxyl. • primary (1°), secondary (2°), or tertiary(3). Primary (1º) 1 group H | CH3—C—OH | H Secondary (2º) Tertiary (3º) 2 groups 3 groups CH3 CH3 | | CH3—C—OH CH3—C—OH | | H CH3 25 Thiols Thiols • are carbon compounds that contain a –SH group. • are named in the IUPAC system by adding thiol to the alkane name of the longest carbon chain. Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 26 Thiols Thiols • often have strong odors. • are used to detect gas leaks. • are found in onions, oysters, and garlic. 27 Properties of Alcohols, Ethers, and Thiols Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 28 Boiling Points of Alcohols Alcohols • contain polar OH groups. • form hydrogen bonds with other alcohol molecules. • have higher boiling points than alkanes and ethers of similar mass. Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 29 Boiling Points of Ethers Ethers • do not have a polar group. • have an O atom, but there is no H attached. • cannot form hydrogen bonds between ether molecules. Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings 30 Solubility of Alcohols and Ethers in Water Alcohols and ethers • are more soluble in water than alkanes because the oxygen atom can hydrogen bond with water. • with 1-4 C atoms are soluble, but not with 5 or more C atoms. 31 Comparing Solubility and Boiling Points Molar Compound Mass Alkane CH3─CH2─CH3 44 Ether CH3─O─CH3 Alcohol CH3─CH2─OH Boiling Soluble Point (°C) in Water? -42 No 46 -23 Yes 46 78 Yes 32 Solubility of Phenol Phenol • is soluble in water. • has a hydroxyl group that ionizes slightly (weak acid). • is corrosive and irritating to skin.
