Alkenes
• Cycloalkenes having fewer than eight carbon atoms have a cis geometry.
• trans-Cyclooctene is the smallest isolable trans cycloalkene
less stable than cis-cyclooctene, making it one of the few alkenes having a higher energy trans isomer.
Introduction—Structure and Bonding
![Page 5: 1 Chapter 10 Alkenes. 2 Introduction—Structure and Bonding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649cc15503460f94988d3a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Alkenes
• general structural formula CnH2n : acyclic alkenes, Cycloalkanes• Each bond or ring removes two hydrogen atoms from a molecule, and this
introduces one degree of unsaturation.• The number of degrees of unsaturation for a given molecular formula can be
calculated by comparing the actual number of H atoms in a compound to the maximum number of H atoms possible for the number of carbons present if the molecule were a straight chain alkane.
• This procedure gives the total number of rings and/or bonds in a molecule.
Calculating Degrees of Unsaturation : n-m for CnH2(n-m)
Quick assessment of molecular structure from molecular formula
n-m = # of rings + # of p bonds

Alkenes
Calculating Degrees of Unsaturation w/ hetero atoms
Halogens (F, Cl, Br, I) - Add the number of halogens to the
number of hydrogens in the formula.Oxygen – Ignore the number of oxygens in the fomula.Nitrogen – Subtract the number of nitrogens from the number of hydrogens in the formula.
Examples. Deduce the number of degrees of unsaturation (d.u.) in the following molecular formulas and suggest one possible structure for each:
(a) C6H11Cl; (b) C5H8O; (c) C8H9N.

AlkenesNomenclature of Alkenes: alkenes are identified by the suffix –ene.
![Page 8: 1 Chapter 10 Alkenes. 2 Introduction—Structure and Bonding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649cc15503460f94988d3a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

AlkenesNomenclature of Alkenes• Compounds with two double bonds : the suffix “–adiene”.• three double bonds trienes, and so forth.• Always choose the longest chain that contains both atoms of the
double bond.• In cycloalkenes, the double bond is located between C1 and C2, and
the “1” is usually omitted in the name. • The ring is numbered clockwise or counterclockwise to give the first
substituent the lower number.• Compounds that contain both a double bond and a hydroxy group
are named as alkenols and the chain (or ring) is numbered to give the OH group the lower number.

Alkenes
• Some alkene or alkenyl substituents have common names.• The simplest alkene, CH2=CH2, named in the IUPAC system as
ethene, is often called ethylene.

Alkenes
• physical properties are similar to alkanes of comparable molecular weight.
• Alkenes have low melting points and boiling points.• Melting and boiling points increase as the number of carbons
increases because of increased surface area.• Alkenes are soluble in organic solvents and insoluble in water.• The C—C single bond between an alkyl group and one of the
double bond carbons of an alkene is slightly polar because the sp3 hybridized alkyl carbon donates electron density to the sp2 hybridized alkenyl carbon.
Physical Properties
![Page 12: 1 Chapter 10 Alkenes. 2 Introduction—Structure and Bonding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649cc15503460f94988d3a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Alkenes
• A consequence of this dipole is that cis and trans isomeric alkenes often have somewhat different physical properties.
• cis-2-Butene has a higher boiling point (4°C) than trans-2-butene (1°C).
• In the cis isomer, the two Csp3—Csp
2 bond dipoles reinforce each other, yielding a small net molecular dipole. In the trans isomer, the two bond dipoles cancel.

Alkenes
• Triacyl glycerols are hydrolyzed to glycerol and three fatty acids of general structure RCOOH.
Lipids
• As the number of double bonds in the fatty acid increases, the melting point decreases.
![Page 15: 1 Chapter 10 Alkenes. 2 Introduction—Structure and Bonding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649cc15503460f94988d3a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Alkenes
• Fats and oils are triglycerols with different physical properties.
• Fats have higher melting points—they are solids at room temperature. Usually from animal sources
• Oils have lower melting points—they are liquids at room temperature. Usually from vegitable sources
• The identity of the three fatty acids in the triacylglycerol determines whether it is a fat or an oil.
• An exception to this generalization is coconut oil, which is largely composed of saturated alkyl side chains.

17
Alkenes
• Increasing the number of double bonds in the fatty acid side chains decreases the melting point of the triacylglycerol.
• Fats are derived from fatty acids having few or no double bonds.
• Oils are derived from fatty acids having a larger number of double bonds.
• An exception to this generalization is coconut oil, which is largely composed of saturated alkyl side chains.

Reactions of Alkenes
• The characteristic reaction of alkenes is addition—the bond is broken and two new bonds are formed.
Introduction to Addition Reactions
• Alkenes are electron rich. • Because alkenes are electron rich, simple alkenes do not react
with nucleophiles or bases, reagents that are themselves electron rich. Alkenes react with electrophiles.
![Page 21: 1 Chapter 10 Alkenes. 2 Introduction—Structure and Bonding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649cc15503460f94988d3a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Markovnikov’s Rule : Regioselectivity of addition
Markovnikov’s rule (1869) in the addition of HX to an unsymmetrical alkene, the H atom adds to the less substituted carbon atom—that is, the carbon that has the greater number of H atoms to begin with.
![Page 28: 1 Chapter 10 Alkenes. 2 Introduction—Structure and Bonding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649cc15503460f94988d3a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

• The Hammond postulate relates reaction rate to stability. • It provides a quantitative estimate of the energy of a transition
state.• The Hammond postulate : the transition state of a reaction
resembles the structure of the species (reactant or product) to which it is closer in energy.
in an endothermic step, TS resembles the products,in an exothermic step, TS resembles the reactants.

• Alcohols add to alkenes, forming ethers by the same mechanism in presence of acid.
Hydration—Electrophilic Addition of Alcohols
• Note that there are three consequences to the formation of carbocation intermediates:1. Markovnikov’s rule holds.2. Addition of H and OH occurs in both syn and anti
fashion.3. Carbocation rearrangements can occur.

• Halogens add to bonds because halogens are polarizable.
• Two facts demonstrate that halogenation follows a different mechanism from that of hydrohalogenation or hydration.
No rearrangements occurOnly anti addition of X2 is observed
These facts suggest that carbocations are not intermediates.

Hydroboration—Oxidation• The proposed mechanism involves concerted addition of
H and BH2 from the same side of the planar double bond:

BH3 can react with three equivalents of alkene to form a trialkylborane.

Hydroboration—Selectivity
With unsymmetrical alkenes, the boron atom bonds to the less substituted carbon atom.

Alkenes
Hydroboration—Oxidation
• Oxidation replaces the C—B bond with a C—O bond, forming a new OH group with retention of configuration.
• The overall result of this two-step sequence is syn addition of the elements of H and OH to a double bond in an “anti-Markovnikov” fashion.

keeping track of all the reactions?
Alkyl halides – Substitution and elimination (they have good leaving groups).Alcohols – As alkyl halides, but only if OH group has been converted to a good leaving group.Alkenes – Addition ( bond is easily broken)
Firstly, check the basic reaction types for a functional group. This provides an overall organization of reactions.
Then, learn the specific reagents for each reaction. This helps to classify the reagent according to its major properties.
Is it basic or acidic? Is it electrophilic or nucleophilic? Is it an oxidizing agent or a reducing agent?
Think mechanism ! – reasonable ones….
