Organic chemistry : The study of carbon-containing compounds and their properties.

Alkanes: Saturated Hydrocarbons

Hydrocarbons: compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen

Saturated hydrocarbon: carbon-carbon bonds are all single - alkanes

Unsaturated hydrocarbon: contains carbon-carbon multiple bonds - alkenes and alkynes.

Nomenclatures

1. For alkanes beyond butane, add -ane to the

Greek root for the number of carbons.

pentane hexane

heptane

2. For a branched hydrocarbon, longest continuous

chain of carbon atoms determines the root name.

six carbons => hexane

3. When alkane groups (alkyl) appears as substituents:

drop the -ane and add -yl.

4. Positions of substituent groups are specified by

numbering the longest chain sequentially. Location

and name of substituent are followed by root alkane

name.

Natural Polymers

The Characteristics of living Organisms

• Structurally complicated and highly organized -Intricate internal structure

• Extract, transform, and use energy from their environments

• The capacity for precise self replication and self assembly

Molecular logic of life

• Diverse living organisms share common chemical features.

• The same basic structural units (cells)

• The same kinds of macromolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins)

• Made up of the same kinds of monomeric subunits (nucleotides, amino acids)

Natural PolymersProteins: Natural polymers made up of a-amino acids (molecular weight from 6000 to >1,000,000 g/mol

Fibrous Proteins: provide structural integrity and strength to muscle, hair and cartilage

Globular Proteins: roughly spherical shape, transport and store oxygen and nutrients,

act as catalysts, fight invasion by foreign objects,

participate in the body’s regulatory system

transport electrons in metabolism

Primary: Sequence of amino acids in the protein chain.

C O H N

Secondary: Highly regular sub-structures- a-helix and strands of b-sheet. Secondary structures are locally defined,

meaning that there can be many different secondary motifs present in one single protein molecule (hydrogen

bonding determines this).

b-turnrandom-coil arrangement

b-sheet


Levels of protein structures

Tertiary: The overall shape of the protein (determined by hydrogen-bonding, dipole-dipole interactions,

ionic bonds, covalent bonds and London forces).

ionic hydrogen covalent London dipole-dipole

Quaternary structure: complex of several protein molecules or

polypeptide chains, usually called protein subunits in this context, which

function as part of the larger assembly or protein complex.


The tremendous flexibility in the various levels of protein structure alls the tailoring of proteins for a wide

range of specific functions. Proteins are the "work-horse" molecules of living orgams.
