Quality Materials
Structural Formula
A graphic representation of molecular formula, showing how atoms are arranged
Condensed structural formula
Shows the connections in the structure of a molecule without showing single bonds (but
double and triple bonds may be shown)
Saturated
All single bonds between carbon atoms
Unsaturated
Contains one or more double bond between carbon atoms
Position Isomers
Same molecular formula but different structural formula. The functional group appears
on a different carbon in the chain
Haloalkanes
Alkanes which have one or more hydrogen atom replaced with a halogen element
Fluorine
Fluoro
Chlorine
Chloro
Bromine
Bromo
Iodine
Iodo
Alcohols
Hydroxyl (-OH) Functional Group attached to a saturated carbon atom
Primary Alcohol
The carbon bonded to the -OH group is only bonded to one alkyl group
Secondary Alcohol
The carbon bonded to the -OH group is also bonded to 2 alkyl groups
Tertiary Alcohol
The carbon bonded to the -OH group is also bonded to 3 alkyl groups
Naming Alcohols
Follow the rule used for alkanes, except the 'e' at the end is replaced with 'ol'.
e.g. ethane -> ethanol
Amines
A homologous series of organic compounds containing the amino functional group
Amino functional group
Nitrogen covalently bonded to two hydrogen atoms
Naming amines
Like alcohols, the 'e' is replaced with 'amine'
Primary Amines
