Part F: some functional groups
Part F: Some Functional Groups. The behavior of organic molecules is governed by the presence of functional groups, combinations of atoms that act as chemically reactive sites. Compounds with the same functional group will have many similar properties and undergo similar chemical reactions. Double and triple bonds are also functional groups. check with your Instructor, you may be asked to build the following molecules, or simply to draw them. You will be asked to recognize functional groups in general, but you will not be tested on naming compounds containing functional groups. You will be expected to determine if the molecule is polar or nonpolar. 1. Alcohols alcohols have the general formula R-oH, where R- any alkyl group and the OH is called a hydroxyl group. (Note: since the OH is bonded covalently to a carbon, it does not come off as a hydroxide ion! In other words, this is not an ionic compound.) a. Construct a model, then draw the structural formula for 1-propanol, C3H7OH. Note the "1" indicate the carbon that the hydroxyl group it bonded to. (The common name is propanol, or propyl alcohol b. Consider VSEPR Theory and look at your drawing and what is the molecular geometry on the oxygen atom? c. Construct a model and draw the structural formula for the isomer; 2- propanol, C3H7 (The common name is fsopropanol, or isopropyl alcohol).
