Week 2- Organic Molecules III

        Help!  

Question
Answer
what are isomers?   compounds with the same molecular formula but atoms arranged differently in space leading to different chemical or physical properties  
🗑
types of isomerism?   structural, stereoisomers, positional, functional group and optical  
🗑
types of structural isomers?   branched, positional or functional  
🗑
what is a branched chain structural isomer?   carbon atoms arranged differently in chain  
🗑
what is positional chain structural isomer?   functional groups attached to different points in main chain  
🗑
what are functional group structural isomers?   have different functional groups  
🗑
what are stereoisomers?   same structural formula but different spatial arrangement  
🗑
types of stereoisomers?   geometric and optical  
🗑
what are the types of isomers in geometric isomers?   cis (Z) and (E) trans  
🗑
what would happen if a rotation occurred in a cis-trans isomer?   break pi bond within the double bond  
🗑
requirements for a cis-trans isomerism?   rotation must be restricted in molecule and there must be two non-identical groups on each double bonded carbon atom  
🗑
describe E isomer?   two high priority groups on different sides  
🗑
describe Z isomer?   two high priority groups on the same side  
🗑
optical isomers?   same molecular and structural formula but cannot be superimposed, where the chiral carbon is surrounded by 4 different groups  
🗑
what are the two different forms of optical isomers called?   enantiomers  
🗑
R chiral carbon?   clockwise direction of priority group  
🗑
S chiral carbon?   anticlockwise direction of priority groups  
🗑
what optical isomer form of ibuprofen is active?   S-form  
🗑
what optical isomer of thalidomide is effective as a sedative?   R-form of thalidomide  
🗑
what optical isomer of thalidomide causes severe birth defects?   S-form  
🗑


   

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.
