Question
Answer
ether   oxygen atom is attached by single bonds to two carbon groups - alkyls or aromatic rings  
🗑
"ETHER oxygen or hydrogen on the carbon   Oxygen indicates "ether"  
🗑
Dioxin   Infamous cyclic ether - formed during forest fires-used in Agent Orange  
🗑
Alcohols-can they hydrogen bond with water?   YES-the --OH - the oxygen is polar  
🗑
Boiling points in alcohol -- higher or lower than alkanes   alchohols have higher boiling points than alkanes  
🗑
Phenol - soluble in water?   Yes, because the hydroxyl group ionizes slightly as a weak acid  
🗑
Alcohols - dehydration   Alcohols lose a water molecule - as H and OH are removed from ADJACENT carbon atoms - which then forms a double bond  
🗑
Saytzeff's rule   In the dehydration of an alcohol, hydrogen is removed from the carbon that already has the smallest number of hydrogen atoms--to form an alkene  
🗑
How do ethers form?   When dehydration of alcohols occurs at lower temperatures -need acid catalyst - one H and the --OH are removed from ADJACENT molecules  
🗑
Oxidation in organic chemistry   It's the loss of hydrogen atoms or the addition of oxygen--an oxidation reaction occurs when there is an increase in the number of carbon-oxygen bonds  
🗑
Oxidation-reduction in organic chemistry   In a reduction, the product has fewer bonds between carbon and oxygen  
🗑
In the oxidation of an organic compound,   a.) there is an increase in C--O bonds b.)there is a loss of H  
🗑
In reduction of organic compound   there is a decrease on C--O bonds b. there is a gain of H  
🗑
Ethanol (drinking alcohol)   ethyl alchol becomes acetaldehyde (impairs coordination) then acetic acid  
🗑
thiols   When thiols undergo oxidation - an H atom is lost from each of two -SH groups - the product is a disulfide  
🗑
aldehydes   Carbonyl group (C==O) C double-bond with O - is then bonded to one hydrogen atom---and then on to another carbon, alkyl group, etc.  
🗑
Ketone   The carbonyl group is bonded to TWO alkyl groups or aromatic rings  
🗑
What do aldehydes & ketones have that makes them important?   They have a "lone" oxygen sticking out which has two electrons which are electronegative  
🗑
Tollen's test   Tollens tests aldehydes--"mirrors" them --looks silvery  
🗑
Benedicts' test   Cu2+ reacts with aldehydes that have an adjacent OH group  
🗑
Cyclic Hemiacetals   Important in organic chemistry - glucose, a simple sugar, forms a "ring" and becomes stable  
🗑
Lord of the "rings"   glucose - 99% exists as hemicetal ring in aqueous solution  
🗑
carbohydrates   a simple or complex sugar composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen  
🗑
glucose (simple sugar) is oxidized in a series of metabolic reactions known as   respiration  
🗑
What are the products of respiration? (after glucose goes through metabolic reactions   CO2 and water (H2O)  
🗑
Monosaccharides   A simple carbohydrate that cannot be split or hydrolyzed into smaller carbohydrates - glucose C12H22O11  
🗑
Disaccharides   two monosaccharides units joined together (orginary table sugar)  
🗑
Do monosaccharides have branches on their carbon chains?   No--they have 3 to 8 carbon atoms - one is a carbonyl group (the rest are hydroxyl groups)  
🗑
aldose   A monosaccharide with the carbonyl group on the first carbon --CHO  
🗑
ketose   A ketose contains the caronyl group on the second carbon atome as a ketone C==O (C double-bond O)  
🗑
"HO"s are bad - L-(to the left on a Fischer projection)   "OH"s are good - D's on a Fischer projection  
🗑
How do you find the "OH" group that makes is an L or D configuration?   Count the one farthest from the carbonyl group  
🗑
enantiomers   Stereo isomers that are mirror images that cannot be superimposed on each other  
🗑
anomers   Are the --OH groups up or down on a carbon ring (hemiacetal)? It makes a big difference!  
🗑
A cyclic hemiacetal (carbon ring) has an --OH group drawn DOWN on the right side   this is ALPHA anomers  
🗑
why is D-glucose called a reducing sugar?   Because D-glucose is easily oxidized by Benedict's reagent. A carbohydrate that reduces Cu2+ to Cu+ is called a reducing sugar  
🗑
glycosidic bond   When hydroxyl groups react with each other (forming monosaccharides into di- or poly-saccharides) this is the bond  
🗑
Carboxylic acids   An OH-hydroxyl group is attached to a carobonyl C double-bond) group forming a carboxyl group  
🗑
What can carboxylic acids attach to?   They can attach to an alkyl group or an aromatic group  
🗑
What do they form   They form weak acids, example Formic acid (bee stings)  
🗑
Is Vinegar a carboyxylic acid?   Yes, and so is the "acid" in wines and butyric acid gives foul odor to rancid butter  
🗑
Carboxylic acids - properties   Higher boiling points (among most polor of organic compounds) - they are acid - can form salts  
🗑
In metabolism, what do carboxylic acids do?   Pyruvic acid is used in the muscles  
🗑
Alcohols react & form esters   (blank)  
🗑
fluid mosaic model of cell membrane   lipids - with polar heads pointed out toward water outside the cell and also pointed under & out toward middle of cell  
🗑
Active transport in cell   needed substances are actively to the cell  
🗑
