4.1 Systematic Nomenclature

Key Ideas Intended Student LearningThe presence or absence of functional groups in an organic compound determines its physical and chemical properties.

Identify the functional groups in the structural formulae of alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, amines, esters, and amides.

Organic compounds are named systematically to provide unambiguous identification.

State, given its structural formula, the systematic name of an organic compound containing:up to eight carbon atoms arranged as either a straight chain or a branched chainone or more of the same functional groups (with these limited to hydroxyl, aldehyde, ketone, carboxyl, or primary amino groups).

The structural formula of an organic compound can be deduced from its systematic name.

Given its systematic name, draw the structural formula of an organic compound containing:up to eight carbon atoms arranged as either a straight chain or a branched chainone or more of the same functional groups (with these limited to hydroxyl, aldehyde, ketone, carboxyl, or primary amino groups).

Esters are named as derivatives of a carboxylic acid.

4.2 Physical Properties

The melting points and boiling points of organic compounds that contain the same functional group increase with the length of carbon chain.

As the chain increases the molar mass increases. Therefore dispersion force increases

4-2 Physical Properties

bp and mp affected by secondary bonding – especially hydrogen bonds

Need to assess relative polarity Remember H-Bonds between H and N, O or FMark on polarity

The polarity of functional groups and boiling points

• Aldehydes, alcohols and ketonesIts important to work out the polarity of

functional group and then explain how it affects the boiling point

For example:• Compound molar mass Boiling point• Propan-1-ol 60 97.2• Propanal 58 47.9• Propanone 58 56.1

Alcohol has the highest- why??Functionol group present is polar hydroxyl group 0-H.

This polar groups form strong hydrogen bonds with each other.

On the other handAldehyde and ketone both have polar carbonyl group.

Dipole- dipole interactions between these polar groups

Organic compounds are generally insoluble in water.

Explain the insolubility in water of most organic compounds.

Hydrogen bonding between functional groups and water can explain the solubility in water of some smaller organic compounds.

Predict and explain the solubility in water of the smaller amino acids, carboxylic acids, alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones.

The solubility in water of an organic compound depends on its molar mass and the functional groups present.

Predict and explain the relative solubilities in water of two organic compounds, given their structural formulae.

Esters and carboxylic acids

• When comparing boiling points- clear pattern is evident

• A carboxylic acid that has the same molecular formula as a particular group of esters is called an isomeric acid of those esters. In other words the esters and carboxylic acid form a group of structural isomers

For example:• Propanoic acid- CH3CH2COOH• Methyl ethanoate- CH3COOCH3

• Ethyl methanoate- HCOOCH2CH3

All have molecular formula of C3H6O2

Therefore propanoic acid is isomeric acid of the two esters.Same molecular formula:same molar mass: same dispersion

forces.

HOWEVER – the different functional groups will have an effect on boiling points!

Continued….• Ester- lower boiling point- functional group in ester

have only one polar group as part of their structure O-C=O. therefore dipole dipole interaction occurs between the groups

• On the other hand

• Carboxylic acid – higher boiling point- Carboxyl groups in carboxylic acid have both polar C=O and O-H groups as part of their molecule. Hydrogen bonding operates between both of these groups

• Fig 4.2 important

The solubility of organic compounds in water• Non polar organic compounds, such as hydrocarbons are not

soluble in water because they cannot form hydrogen bonds with the polar water molecules.

• Molecules with polar functional groups but long chains( 6 Carbon atoms or more) are classified as non polar because non polar C chain is the dominant feature

• The influence of functional groups is increased when more than one functional group is present such as diols, dicarboxylic acids and diamines.

Key Ideas Intended Student Learning

Ethanol is produced by the fermentation of glucose, which can be derived by the hydrolysis of complex carbohydrates.

Ethanol is produced by the fermentation of glucose, which can be derived by the hydrolysis of complex carbohydrates.

Describe the conditions, and write equations, for the hydrolysis of polysaccharides and disaccharides, and the production of ethanol by the fermentation of glucose.

4-0 Hydration ReactionOne way to form ethanol. Requires high temperature, high pressure and catalyst (phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid or aluminium oxide). Ethanol produced in this way is called synthetic or industrial ethanol

2nd method- fermentation of glucose

• Glucose is a monosaccharide which is obtained directly from fruits.

• If there is disaccharides or polysaccharides- these cannot undergo fermentation. Therefore undergoes hydrolysis first to form monosaccharide.

Equations:• Hydrolysis of polysaccharides to monosaccharides

(C6H10O5)n + nH2O nC6H12O6

• Hydrolysis of disaccharides to monosaccharides

C12H22O11 + H2O 2C6H12O6

• Fermentation of glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide

Special condition required: read page 254 ( important)

• Optimum temperature for fermentation- btw 20 and 30.• Since fermentation is an exothermic process, it is necessary to

cool the fermentation vessel to avoid excessive high temperature.

• Acidic condition required ( changing of pH of the solution affects the structure of the enzymes which in turn produces different fermentation products.

• Fermentation is anaerobic process and oxygen must be totally excluded. If oxygen enters, ethanol undergoes oxidation to produce ethanal and ethanoic acid

• Yeasts- micro organisms which produces enzymes to speed up fermentation. Once the concentration of alcohol exceeds 14% yeasts die.

Alcohols are classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary.

Identify a hydroxyl group in an alcohol as primary, secondary, or tertiary, given the structural formula.

Alcohols are classified as primary, secondary and tertiary depending on the position of the hydroxyl group in the molecular structure

Samples of alcohols are added to acidic dichromate solutions, which are orange. The rate at which the orange color converts to blue/green chromium (III) is compared for the three types of alcohols

Primary and secondary alcohols can be distinguished from tertiary alcohols by their reaction with acidified dichromate solution.

Describe how primary and secondary alcohols can be distinguished from tertiary alcohols by their reaction with acidified dichromate solution.

Oxidation of Alcohols- acidified potassium dichromate

CH3CH2OH → CH3COH → CH3COOH

Primary Alcohol Aldehyde Carboxylic acid

CH3CHOHCH3 → CH3COCH3

Cr2O72-/H+/

Secondary Alcohol Ketone

CH3COHCH3CH3 → no reaction

This lack of reaction with acidified potassium dichromate could be used to distinguish primary and secondary alcohols from tertiary alcohols

Tertiary Alcohol

• Primary & secondary alcohols and their oxidation products all have the same number of carbon atoms.

• Primary and secondary alcohols- reduce orange dichromate ions to green chromium (III) ions while tertiary alcohols do not react (no colour change). Oxidation num reduces from +6 to +3

• Note: alcohols and their oxidation products are colourless ; it is the reduction of dichromate to chromium (III) ions that is responsible for the colour change.

• Half equation for the reduction of dichromate:

Given the structural formula of the aldehyde or ketone, draw the structural formula of the alcohol from which it could be produced by oxidation, and describe the necessary reaction conditions.

4.4 Aldehydes and Ketones

Key Ideas Intended Student LearningAldehydes and ketones are produced by the oxidation of the corresponding primary and secondary alcohols respectively. Aldehydes are readily oxidised and so must be distilled off from the reaction mixture as they are formed.

Aldehydes can be oxidised to form carboxylic acids or, in alkaline solutions, carboxylate ions.

Draw the structural formula of the oxidation product of a given aldehyde in either acidic or alkaline conditions.

Ketones cannot readily be oxidised. This difference in properties between aldehydes from ketones can be used to distinguish one from the other.

Describe how acidified dichromate solution and Tollens’ reagent (ammoniacal silver nitrate solution) can be used to distinguish between aldehydes and ketones.

Aldehydes and ketones are produced by the oxidation of the corresponding primary and secondary alcohols respectively. Aldehydes are readily oxidised and so must be distilled off from the reaction mixture as they are formed.

•Aldehydes and ketones are organic compounds which incorporate a carbonyl functional group, C=O. The carbon atom of this group has two remaining bonds that may be occupied by hydrogen or alkyl or aryl substituents. If at least one of these substituents is hydrogen, the compound is an aldehyde. If neither is hydrogen, the compound is a ketone.

Aldehydes and ketones

• One thing in common??

• Difference?

Preparation of aldehydes and ketones - fig 4.7

Oxidation of aldehydes by two ways

1. Aldehydes heated with acidified potassium dichromate, undergo oxidation to carboxylic acid ( orange dichromate ions reduced to green chromate ions)

2nd way

2. Known as silver mirror test or tollen’s reagentProcess• aldehydes undergo oxidation to carboxylate ions

when heated with ammoniacal silver nitrate solution (Tollen’s reagent). Oxidising agent is silver diammine ion which is reduced to metallic silver and this forms a deposit on the inside of the reaction vessel. The formation of silver mirror is a positive test for the preence of an aldehyde functional group in an organic compound

OxidationThe presence of that hydrogen atom makes aldehydes very easy to oxidise. Or, put another way, they are strong reducing agents.

The electron-half-equation for the reduction of of the diamminesilver(I) ions to silver is:

Combining that with the half-equation for the oxidation of an aldehyde under alkaline conditions:

. . . gives the overall equation:

Using Tollens' reagent (the silver mirror test) to distinguish between an aldehyde and a ketone

To carry out the test, you add a few drops of the aldehyde or ketone to the freshly prepared reagent, and warm gently in a hot water bath for a few minutes.

Ketone- No change in the colourless solution.

In aldehydethe colourless solution produces a grey precipitate of silver, or a silver mirror on the test tube. Aldehydes reduce the diamminesilver(I) ion to metallic silver. Because the solution is alkaline, the aldehyde itself is oxidised to a salt of the corresponding carboxylic acid.

• Complete Q 4.15 – 4.17 page 260

Using acidified potassium dichromate(VI) solutionA small amount of potassium dichromate(VI) solution is acidified with dilute sulphuric acid and a few drops of the aldehyde or ketone are added. If nothing happens in the cold, the mixture is warmed gently for a couple of minutes - for example, in a beaker of hot water.ketoneNo change in the orange solution.aldehydeOrange solution turns green.The orange dichromate(VI) ions have been reduced to green chromium(III) ions by the aldehyde. In turn the aldehyde is oxidised to the corresponding carboxylic acid.The electron-half-equation for the reduction of dichromate(VI) ions is:

Combining that with the half-equation for the oxidation of an aldehyde under acidic conditions:

. . . gives the overall equation:

• Step One: Grain Receiving, Storing and Milling • We receive corn by rail and by truck, at which point we

inspect, weigh and unload the corn in a receiving building and then transfer it to storage bins. On the grain receiving system, a dust collection system limits particulate emissions. Truck scales and a rail car scale weigh delivered corn. Corn unloading and storage systems include independent unloading legs and concrete and steel storage bins. From its storage location, corn is conveyed to scalpers to remove debris before it is transferred to hammermills or grinders where it is ground into a flour, or "meal."

• Step Two: Conversion and Liquefaction, Fermentation and Evaporation Systems

• The meal is conveyed into slurry tanks for enzymatic processing. The meal is mixed with water and enzymes and heated to break the ground grain into a fine slurry. The slurry is routed through pressure vessels and steam flashed in a flash vessel. This liquefied meal, now called "mash," reaches a temperature of approximately 200°F, which reduces bacterial build-up. The sterilized mash is then pumped to a liquefaction tank where additional enzymes are added. This cooked mash continues through liquefaction tanks and is pumped into one of the fermenters, where propagated yeast is added, to begin a batch fermentation process.

• The fermentation process converts the cooked mash into carbon dioxide and beer, which contains ethanol as well as all the solids from the original feedstock. We employ the batch fermentation process in which the mash is kept in one fermentation tank for approximately two days. Circulation through external plate and frame heat exchangers, designed for high solids content and easy cleaning, keeps the mash at the proper temperature.

• Step Three: Distillation and Molecular Sieve • After batch fermentation is complete, beer is pumped to the beer well and

then to the distillation column to vaporize and separate the alcohol from the mash. The distillation results in a 96%, or 190-proof, alcohol. This alcohol is then transported through a rectifier column, a side stripper and a molecular sieve system where it is dehydrated to produce 200-proof anhydrous ethanol. The 200-proof alcohol and up to 5% denaturant constitute ethanol ready for sale.

• Step Four: Liquid—Solid Separation System • The residue corn mash from the distillation stripper, called stillage, is pumped

into one of several decanter type centrifuges for dewatering. The water, or thin stillage, is then pumped from the centrifuges back to mashing as backset or to an evaporator where it is dried into a thick syrup. The solids that exit the centrifuges, known as "wet cake," are conveyed to the wet cake storage pad or the gas-fired rotary dryer for removal of residual water. Syrup is added to the wet cake as it enters the dryer, where moisture is removed. The end result of the process is the production of dried distillers grains with solubles, or DDGS.

• Step Five: Product Storage • Final storage tanks hold the denatured ethanol product prior

to being transferred to loading facilities for truck and rail car transportation. Each of our plants has one 190-proof storage tank and one 200-proof storage tank. Our Iowa Falls plant has two 750,000 gallon final storage tanks with another two 750,000 gallon final storage tanks to be be added in the fourth quarter of 2006. Our Fairbank plant has two 1,500,000 gallon final storage tanks. These final storage tanks will accommodate ten days of storage per plant.

Draw the structural formula of the oxidation product of a given aldehyde in either acidic or alkaline conditions.

Describe how acidified dichromate solution and Tollens’ reagent (ammoniacal silver nitrate solution) can be used to distinguish

between aldehydes and ketones.
