Organic Chem, Chapter 13
Organic Chem, Chapter 13
Unsaturated   A molecule that contains a carbon-carbon multiple bond, to which more hydrogen atoms can be added.  
🗑
Saturated   A molecule whose carbon atoms bond to the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.  
🗑
Alkene   A hydrocarbon that contains a carbon-carbon double bond.  
🗑
Alkyne   A hydrocarbon that contains a carbon-carbon triple bond.  
🗑
Cycloalkene   A cyclic hydrocarbon that contains a double bond.  
🗑
Cis-trans isomers   Alkenes that have the same connections between atoms but differ in their three-dimensional structures because of the way that groups are attached to different sides of the double bond.  
🗑
Addition reaction   A general reaction type in which a substance X-Y adds to the multiple bond of an unsaturated reactant to yield a saturated product that has only single bonds.  
🗑
Elimination reaction   A general reaction type in which a saturated reactant yields an unsaturated product by losing groups from two adjacent carbons.  
🗑
Substitution reaction   A general reaction type in which an atom or group of atoms in a molecule is replaced by another atom or group of atoms.  
🗑
Rearrangement reaction   A general reaction type in which a molecule undergoes bond reorganization to yield an isomer.  
🗑
Hydrogenation   The addition of H2 to a multiple bond to give a saturated product.  
🗑
Halogenation (alkene)   The addition of Cl2 to Br2 to a multiple bond to give a dihalide product.  
🗑
Hydrohalogenation   The addition of HCl or HBr to a multiple bond to give an alkyl halide product.  
🗑
Hydration   The addition of water to a multiple bond to give an alcohol product.  
🗑
Reaction mechanism   A description of the individual steps by which old bonds are broken and new bonds formed are in a reaction.  
🗑
Polymer   A large molecule formed by the repetitive bonding together of many smaller molecules.  
🗑
Monomer   A small molecule that is used to prepare a polymer.  
🗑
Aromatic   The class of compounds containing benzene-like rings.  
🗑
Resonance   The phenomenon where the true structure of a molecule is an average among two or more conventional structures.  
🗑
Nitration   The substitution of a nitro group (-NO2) for a hydrogen on an aromatic ring.  
🗑
Halogenation (aromatic)   The substitution of a halogen group(-X) for a hydrogen on an aromatic ring.  
🗑
Sulfonation   The substitution of a sulfonic acid group (-SO3H) for a hydrogen on an aromatic ring.  
🗑
Phenyl   The C6H5-group.  
🗑
Markovnikov's rule   In the addition of HX to an alkene, the H becomes attached to the carbon that already has the most H's, and the X becomes attached to the carbon that has fewer H's.  
🗑
