Chapter 5 - Alkenes and Alkynes

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Alkenes   carbon carbon double bonds; more reactive than alkanes; sometimes double bond acts as a base and attacks shit  
🗑
terminal alkenes   lower bp  
🗑
Trans-alkenes   higher mp and lower bp  
🗑
Cis-alkenes   high bp cuz polar  
🗑
Elimination rxns   synthesizing an alkene; loses halide and H, or water, to form double bond  
🗑
E1   two step intermediate, carbocation, first order substrate, good LG, weak nucleophile  
🗑
E2   one step, second order, strong nucleophile; removes proton and halide at same time to form double bond  
🗑
Sn2 vs E2   strong base favors E2  
🗑
catalytic hydrogenation   addition of H2 to an alkene to form alkane with the help of a metal  
🗑
Electrophiles   electron seeking groups  
🗑
Markovnikov's Rule   addition of something to the most substituted carbon in the double bond for stability  
🗑
Addition of water to alkenes   only under acidic conditions, double bond attacks H+ from acid, then water attaches to cation then H+ is removed to form alcohol  
🗑
Free Radical Additons   doesnt follow Mark's Rule. Halide binds to terminal carbon; halide binds then H+ is added  
🗑
Hydroboration   when BH3 adds to less sterically hindered carbon of alkene then alcohol group replaces boron; BH3 and THF then H202 and base  
🗑
cold KMnO4 Oxidation   produces diols (two OH groups added), syn/cis orientation  
🗑
hot KMnO4 with OH-   forms COOH terminally or ketone and CO2  
🗑
Ozonolysis   1.treating alkene with O3 and Zn gives 2 aldehydes 2. O3 and NaBH4 gives terminal alcohols  
🗑
Peroxycarboxylic Acid   CH3CO3H or MCPBA give oxiranes/epoxides when combined with alkenes  
🗑
Polymerization   creation of a long high molecular weight chain of repeating subunits  
🗑
alkyne   hydrocarbon with triple bond  
🗑
Synthesis alkyne   elimination of two molecules of HX but this is not practical adding an already existing triple bond to carbon skeleton; need strong base to remove H from alkyne to make it a nucleophile that can attack  
🗑
Reduction Alkyne   1. Lindlar's catalyst (BaSO4 and quinoline) give cis alkene 2. Ammonia (liquid) and Na give trans alkene  
🗑
Free radicals   anti Mark's rule and X is added first  
🗑
Ions   follow Mark's rule (most substituted carbon) and H+ added first  
🗑
Alkyne O3 (Ozone) and KMnO4 rnx   both form COOH terminally  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
