added information Flashcards
same structural formula and structure but differs in spatial agreement
stereoisomerism
nonsuperimposable mirror image; all chiral centers changed
enantiomers
one of the chiral centers changed
diastereomer
same mol. formula but differs in structure
structural or constitutional isomer
different structural isomers
skeletal, functional, position
plane symmetry; no chiral center changed aka ACHIRAL
meso-compound
nonpolar, soluble only with organic solvents, increased BP if increased mol. weight, single bonded, -ane, saturated with H
alkane
reactions of alkane
combustion, pyrolytic cracking, bacterial oxidation, halogenation
double bonded, unsaturated H, nonpolar, soluble only with org solvent, -ene, Increased BP increased mol. weight
alkene
reactions under alkene
bayer’s test (oxidative test), ozonolysis, markovnikov, hydrogenation
organic solvents used to organic functional groups
ether, hexane, tetrachloride
reacting with air/oxygen in environment therefore producing CO2 + H2O
combustion
breaking larger molecules to smaller
pyrolytic cracking
bacteria oxidizes by undergoing anaerobic process
bacterial oxidation
addition of H atoms through the use of UV light
halogenation
