count the carbon hydrogen etc atoms if they are the same they are most likely constitutional isomers. except if there is a double or triple bond involved |

|
are these 2 constitutional isomers and why? CH3CH2CH^(CH3)CH2CH3 CH3CH^(CH2CH3)CH2CH3 |
no because they are the same just view and counted from different points if you look closely. they both have a methyl substituent on the 3rd carbon |
|

interconvert by rotation about a carbon to carbon single bond, so to interconvert between conformational isomers, no bond breaking is needed |
|
what is the name for this type of drawing |
saw horse projection |
|
what projection is this? and is it stable or unstable? |
it is the staggered and it is the most stable shaped like a 3d horse |
|
what projection is this and is it stable or unstable? |
it is the eclipsed and is the least stable |
|
why is the staggered more stable |
because when it is staggered there is less steric interference (more space mor stable) |
|
what is an anti staggered? |
when the 2 big groups are directly opposite each other in a staggered state |
|
what is a gauche staggered? |
when the 2 big groups are kinda close to each other (kinda like meta) |
|
what is a sin eclipsed |
when the 2 big groups are the closest to each other |
|
whats a newman projection? |
it is shaped as 2d with the point being the front carbon and the circle being the rear carbon |
|
draw the chair shape conformer with the axial and equatorial |
remember axial is up down up down.... equatorial sides goes inwards towards each other and the middle eq slants towards the sloped line |
|
what happens when a ring flip happens to a chair conformer? |
all the axial goes into equatorial all the equatorial goes into axial |
|
which is more stable? having the biggest group on the ax or eq position? and why
|
when the biggest molecule group is on the eq position it is more stable as it would have a staggered conformation. meaning less steric interference. |
|
which is more favoured the biggest group on ax or eq |
the biggest group on eq is favoured as it is more stable it is formed 95% of the time. |
|
what is a configurational isomer? |
can only be INTERCONVERTED if a covalent bond is broken and reformed |
|
what is a cis trans -ez isomer?
|
they are configurational isomers. or atoms/ groups held in different positions by ring or C=C
|
|
what is one thing a configurational isomer must have ? |
a double bond (so it can break and reform) or a ring |
|
are these 2 configurational isomers of each other? |
no because they are identical they are just flipped vertically (the 2 H on the same CARBON enable them to) |
|
are these 2 configurational isomers of each other? |
no they are just flipped horizontally (2 identical groups on the same CARBON enable this) |
|
are these 2 configurational isomers of each other? |
yes because the carbons have different groups. and you can imagine a line through the double bonds |
|
which of these 1 or 2 is a cis and which one is a trans configuration and why? |
1 is a cis because the top of the double bond side has the same group and he bottom has the same (cis the same) 2 is the trans, because the top and bottom have 2 different groups hence trans |
|
when do we use the EZ system for a configurational steroisomer |
when all the groups bonded to the 3 carbons of the double bond are different. we then use the priority of the groups to determine which one is high or low on each carbon of the double bonds. then we can pair the high or lows |
|
what is the order of priority of molecules from least to most? |
H |
|
what do we need to make sure of when signing priority with a large molecule. such as which one has the higher priority CHO or CH2OH |
we need to make sure to use the atoms directly bonded to the C in the double bonds! and double bonds is as if theres 2 of that atom directly bonded to it CHO would have higher priority because C is bonded to 1 H and double bonded to a O so it would be 1H and 2O while CH2OH is directly bond to 2 H and 1O CHO has more O which is higher priority than H so it overall has the higher priority |
|
what configuration is this? |
trans because the hi and lows are not in the same side. |
|
what is one thing you must make sure of when trying to identify isomer? |
THEY MUST ALL HAVE THE SAME CHEMICAL FORMULA TO BE ISOMERS OF EACH OTHER |
|
what configurational isomer is this? |
it is Z configurational stereoisomer remember zis is the same |
|
what are enantiomers? |
enantiomers can exist when you have a SP3 and have 4 groups that are different. such a molecule cannot be stacked on its mirror image they are mirror images of each other |
|
the is a stereo genie centre and what is chiral? |
it just means that there is a carbon which is bonded to 4 different groups |
|
where is the stereogenic centre or chiral carbon in CH3CH^(Cl)CH2CH3 |
CH3CH*^(Cl)CH2CH3 * marks the chiral that Carbon is bonded to a methyl on the left a Cl on the top a H on the bottom and a ethyl group on the right. so it is chiral as it has 4 different groups attached |
|
which is the chiral carbons on this molecule |
there can be more than 1 stereogenic centre. |
|
how do you determine if a stereogenic centre is a R or S. |
you can determine it if you put the Lowest priority group. usually H into the page and treat it as a steering wheel. if the wheel is turning Right then it is a R, if it is turning left it is S. |
|
is this the R or S configuration? |
in this case the H is coming out of the page so you just assign priority and find the direction and then reverse it. SO IT IS "S" |
|
is this R or S configuration |
this is S |
|
what are diastereomers |
are streamers that have a non-mirror image relationship. |
|
what is the trend in boiling points for alkanes? |
the more carbons in the chain the higher the boiling point also the closer the molecules are the stronger the bonds, they can pack in better and have stronger bonds the more polar bonds a molecule has the higher the boiling points |
|
what does the presence of O-H group give rise to? |
it can give rise to intermolecular hydrogen bonding. forming ionic bonds where one atom is slightly more negative than the other because of its electronegativity, usually O |
|
which one is more polar? C-O or C=O |
C=O because of relative mobility of pi electrons note in ethers where no O-H bonds is present hydrogen bonding is not possible |
|
what is a substitution reaction? |
one atom or group is replaced by another. DBE remains the same A MOLECULE IS SUBSTITUTED EG CH3CH3+Cl2 --> CH3CH2Cl + Hcl CH3Br + -CN --> CH3CN + Br- |
|
what is an addition reaction? |
two atoms or groups are added to a molecule containing a double or triple bond. DBE decrease product less unsaturated A BOND IS BROKEN eg CH2=CH2 + HBr ---> CH3CH2Br CH3C=-CH + H2 ---> CH3CH=CH2 |
|
what is a elimination reaction? |
two atoms or group are removed from a molecule. DBE increases products are more saturated eg CH3CH3 ----> CH2=CH2CH |
|
what type of reaction is this? CH3Cl+NH4 ---> CH3NH2 + HCl |
it is a substitution reaction. the cl was substituted out for the NH2 |
|
during bond breaking a covalent bond can be broken in two possible ways what are they? |
symmetrically or unsymmetrically |
|
what is homiletic bond cleavage? |
it is also called homolysis (symmetrical cleavage) one electron pair in the bond ends up on each other the atoms which were bonded A------B so fish hook arrow from bond one to A one to B |
|
what is heterolytic bond cleavage or heterolysis (unsymmetrical cleavage |
both electrons of bonding pair end up on one of the atoms which were bonded A-------B -full arrow goes to B--> A + B- or A---B ---full arrow goes to A--> A-+B |
|
what is more stable gauche or anti staggered conformation? and why |
anti is more stable than gauche because the 2 largest groups are almost directly opposite each other and the more distance between them the more stable they are |
|
what is the order of molecules with the lowest to highest boiling points |
alkane<ester (single bonded O)<Alkyl Halides<Aldehydes/ketones (double bonded O M < Amides (NH2) < alcohol (O-H bonds) < CARBOXYLIC ACID ( OH and =O) < Amine and carboxylic SALTS |
|
which type of molecule is more stable primary secondary or tertiary? |
Tertiary> secondary> primary>Methyl |
|
what is a nucleophile? |
a electron rich molecule. it wants to donate its electrons, and so has a - charge |
|
what is an electrophile? |
it is a electron poor molecule and wants to have more electrons. |
