Exam 1 Flashcards
Lectures 1-14 (78 cards)
induction - distance
the closer the electronegative atom is to the hydrogen, the stronger the acid, the lower the pka
induction - electronegativity
the more electronegative atom is the stronger acid, lower pka
induction - additive
the more # of electronegative atoms = more acidic = lower pka
orbital
charge on atoms w/ double or triple bonds are most stable CB, so lower pka
sp
Which side does equilbirum favor?
- weaker acid/weaker base (will be on same side)
- more stable acid/base
pH>pka
deprotonated
pH<pka
protonated
weaker acid
stronger C.B
henderson hasselbalch
pH-pka=-log([A-]/[HA])
* base/acid
naming compounds
- find parent chain - if tie then choose one with most substituents
- number the parent chain
- lowest sub on lowest numbered C
- tie - 2nd substituent on lowest numbered C
- tie again - alphabetically - name parent chain and subsitutients
- don’t forget cyclo
- don’t forget prefix ex. di, tri
- alphabetical order (to break tie if needed) and when putting name together
energy of H-H eclipsed
4 kj/mol
most stable chair structure
biggest groups = equatorial
line wedge to chair
dashes
solids
dashes-down
solids-up
stereoisomers
2^n
boiling point priorities
- h bonding
- mass
- branching
vinyl vs allyl
vinyl: atoms on C of alkene
allyl: atoms adjacent to C of alkene
resonance importance
- complete octet
- fewest F.C
- negative charge on more E.N atom, positive charge on least E.N atom
boiling point
higher boiling point
1. can H-bond
2. higher mass
3. less branching
hydrogen bonding
between H and FON
* H attached to FON in 1 molecule
* FON in the other molecule need lone pair(s)
acyl halide
keytone but replace one R with X
aldehyde
keytone but replace one R and H
ester
keytone but replace one R with OR
resonance
- lose electron = add 1 to charge
- gain electron = substract
resonance - carbocations
allylic carbocation
1. pi bond to sigma bond with carbocation
lone pair adjacent
1. lone pair to sigma bond
