Chem Exam 2 Flashcards
Condensation Rxn/polymers
COOH links with OH or NH3 and lose H2O
diacid btw =O
diol/diamine btw -O/NH
Examples of Condensation Polymers?
Amides, esters
Addition polymers?
Hydrocarbon chain, ylene
Steps of an oxidation
Primary alcohol -> aldehyde -> carboxylic acid
Carboxylic Acid
-oic
Always C1
-C=OOH
Esters
-oate
COOH + OH
C=OO
always C1
Aldehydes
-al
Always C1
C=O-H
Ketones
R-C=O-R
Alcohols
R-OH
Amines
Primary: NH2
Secondary: -NH-
Tertiary: three bonds to N
Ethers
-polar
R-O-R
Structural Isomers
Same Molecular Formula different connectivity
Geometric Isomers
- cis/trans
- double bonds
- no chiral center
- different chemistry
Enantiomers/Stereo Isomers
Chiral centers
-mirror images not super imposable
What are examples of reducing agents?
What bonds form?
What functional group does the molecule go to?
Metal + Hydrogen : LiAlH4, NaBH4
= -> -
go to alcohol
Examples of Oxidizing agents?
What bonds are made?
Order of oxidation?
Chromates/Dichromate
- -> =
primary alcohol-> aldehyde (or keytone) -> carbox acid
