Organic Chemistry • What is it – chemistry involving carbon • Why study – molecular structure concepts • What to know – naming system – Prefix - # of carbons in molecule – Suffix – type of bonds between carbons – Prefix values:
Examples • Practice • Halogenation • Functional Group(s)
Identifying General Trends • Hydrocarbons containing only single bonds=alkanes • Hydrocarbons containing one double bond=alkenes • Hydrocarbons containing one triple bond=alkynes • Create two examples of each (NB), draw structure, write formula, determine general formula, show me
Assignment • • • Choose a functional group What is it How is it named (IUPAC) Common Examples Fantastic Example
Quick Presentations what to know • Naming system (endings, suffixes or prefixes) • Know at least one Common Example • Appreciation for fantastic example
