Some Definitions • Hydrocarbon • Saturated hydrocarbon • Unsaturated hydrocarbon • Cyclic hydrocarbon • Structural formula • Condensed structural formula • Isomer • Functional Group
General Uses of Hydrocarbons Teflon: polytetrafluoroethane (PTFE) • Halogenated • CFCs • Teflon • Perfluoro • Solvents • Anesthetics • Perfumes, flavorings • Building blocks of the body Source: http://www.worldofmolecules.com/pesticides/ddt.htm
Alkanes • Hydrocarbons that contain only single bonds • General formula CnH2n+2 • Named from the number of carbons • Can have isomers • Can be cyclic (different formula)
Properties of Alkanes • State of matter • Less than 5 carbons = gas • Between 5 and 16 carbons = liquid • Greater than 16 carbons = solid • Non-polar molecules (insoluble in water) • Very flammable: used for combustion • Physiological effects: dissolve fats, can act as emollients
Functional Groups • Any variation on the single carbon chain • Hydrocarbon stem called an alkyl group • Additions of bonds, halogens, oxygen or nitrogen • Alkene • Alkyne • Alcohol • Carboxylic Acid • Ester • Amine • Amide
Alkenes • Hydrocarbons that contain at least one double bond • General formula CnH2n • Named from the number of carbons • Can be cyclic • Aromatic hydrocarbons: benzene
Alkynes • Hydrocarbons that contain at least one triple bond • General formula CnH2n-2 • Named from the number of carbons

Alcohols • Alkanes that contain an –OH substituted for any hydrogen • Called a hydroxyl functional group • Named according to number of carbons in alkyl group • -e on alkane name changes to -ol

Carboxylic Acids • Called a carboxyl group • May see it written as --COOH • Named from the number of carbons + “oic acid” • Methanoic acid (in ant and bee stings) • Ethanoic acid (acetic acid in vinegar) • Propanoic acid • Butanoic acid (rancid butter, body odor)
Properties of Carboxylic Acids • Weak acids • Sour taste, neutralize base • Produce H+ ions in water • Carboxylic acid salts = used as anti-mold food additives

Source: http://www.worldofmolecules.com/pesticides/ddt.htm Properties of Esters • Formed by combination of an alcohol and an acid • Some soluble in water, some insoluble • Fragrant: used in foods and perfumes • Many fruity • Other important esters: • Salicylic acid • Antipyretic • Analgesic • Blood thinner
Amines • Contain at least one –N group • Called an amino functional group • Named according to number of carbons attached to the amino • Names depend on where amino is in chain • Name examples: • CH3NH2 = methylamine • CH3CH2NH2 = ethylamine • CH3NHCH3 = dimethylamine • CH3CH2CH2NH2 = propylamine • CH3NHCH2CH3 = methylethylamine • CH3CH2NHCH3 = ethylmethylamine
Source: http://www.worldofmolecules.com/pesticides/ddt.htm Properties of Amines • Formed from ammonia by replacing hydrogens with alkyl groups • Soluble in water (low MW) • Many are toxic & carcinogenic • Unpleasant odors • Act as weak bases • Biological importance • Amino acids • Proteins • Drugs Adrenaline
Complex Amines: Heterocyclic • Carbon rings with nitrogens replacing carbons • Hetero = not evenly spaced Source: http://www.worldofmolecules.com/pesticides/ddt.htm Purine Pyrimidine
Source: http://www.worldofmolecules.com/pesticides/ddt.htm Amides • Contain a carbon double-bonded to oxygen, single bonded to nitrogen • Soluble in water (low MW) • High boiling points and melting points • Most (more than 1 carbon) are solid at room temperature • Most important amides are complex • Proteins • Nylon, wool, silk Nylon = hydrocarbons with amide linkages
