CHEM 245- Unit 1

QuestionAnswer
deuterium hydrogen with one neutron
triterium hydrogen with two neutrons
electronegativity/bonding pneumonic F-O-N-Cl-Br-I-C-S-H-P
single carbon bond hybridization sp3
double carbons bond hybridization sp2
triple carbon bond hybridization sp
C-C geometry tetrahedral
C=C geometry planar
C≡C geometry linear
Are single or multiple bonds more reactive? Single; longer bond length, lower bond energy
Bronsted-Lowry definition acid= H+ donation; base= H+ accepting
Lewis definition acid= lone pair accepting, base= lone pair donation
what 2 types of reactions to alkanes partake in? combustion and halogenation
methyl 1
ethyl 2
propyl 3
butyl 4
pentyl 5
hexa 6
hepta 7
oxta 8
sigma bonds ____ _____ rotate freely (120)
cyclo butane, pentane, and methane have a lot of ring strain
1, 3 diaxial interactions methyl groups prefer to be in equatorial positions because of this
A-values higher A value= less likely that the substituent will be axial (like delta G)
diene 2 double bonds
triene 3 double bonds
do -enes or -ynes adopt chair structures? nope!
spontaneous interconversion interconversion of cis and trans structures with the addition of H+
Z same
E opposite
4 types of organic reactions addition, elimination, substitution, rearrangement
Two ways bonds break symmetrical (homolytic); unsymmetrical (heterolytic)
Two ways bonds form symmetrical, unsymmetrical
Symmetrical bond formation (mechanism) 2 free radicals form one new product
Unsymmetrical bond formation (mechanism) 2 bonding electrons donated by 1 reactant
Radical reactions symmetrical
Polar reactions unsymmetrical (more important in ochem!)
Exergonic -ΔG
Endergonic +ΔG
forming a carbocation is ____ Ea than quenching it higher
Catalyst provides lower Ea paths for high Ea reactions that would normally not proceed
Additions of H-X: what is X? Cl, Br, or I (halogens)
Markovnikov's rule H attaches to C with fewer alkyl substituents; X attaches to C with more alkyl substituents
Carbocation stability more alkyl substituents= more stability
What is the product (functional group) when alcohol is added to an alkene? ether (where the carbocation forms in intermediate)
Conjugated a series of 4 or more sp2 hybridized carbons bound in a row (double bonds and single switch off)
5 rules for resonance structures individual forms are imaginary, they differ in placement of pi bonds of non-bonding electrons only, they don't have to be equivalent, must obey valence, resonance=stability
alkenes and alkynes are both ___ nucleophilic (at their pi bonds)
halogenations of cycloalkenes produce only 1, 2 trans dihalo products
Lindlar's catalyst mono addition of H2 to alkynes
Lindlar's forms ___ cis alkene
adding Br2... always trans
What functional group forms in alkene hydration? OH
What functional group forms in alkyne hydration? =O
constitutional isomer different connections in the molecule
stereoisomer same connections, different 3-D structure

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:
