Functional Groups Flashcards
At least one carbon to carbon double bond ; C-C double bond as functional group
Alkenes
Only carbon to carbon single bonds ; no functional group
Alkanes
Carbon to carbon tripe bond ; C-C triple bond as functional group
Alkynes
Contains a benzene ring (six membered ring with 3 double bonds)
Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Oxygen atom that forms single bonds with two carbon atoms ; R-O-R
Ether
Sulfur atom bonded to a hydrogen atom ; forms strong bonds with mercury-containing compounds and have a distinct smell similar to rotten eggs ; R-SH
Thiol
Nitrogen atom bonded to hydrocarbons ; R-NH
Amine
Oxygen atom bonded to one hydrogen atom and one carbon atom ; R-OH
Alcohol
It is a carbonyl ; carbodehydeson atom is bonded to at least one hydrogen atom
Aldehydes
R-X
Alkyl Halide
Involved a carbonyl in which the carbon atom makes single binds with two R-group
Ketones
Carbonyl-containing functional group, in which one side and either a carbon or hydrogen atom on the other
Carboxylic Acids
Contains a carbonyl where the carbon is bonded to one additional oxygen atom and one carbon or hydrogen atom
Ester
Carbonyl in which the carbon is attached to one nitrogen atom and one carbon or hydrogen atom
Amides
