Common Names
• Isobutane, “isomer of butane”• Isopentane, isohexane, etc., methyl
branch on next-to-last carbon in chain.• Neopentane, most highly branched• Five possible isomers of hexane,
18 isomers of octane and 75 for decane! =>

Alkane Examples

Chapter 3 6
IUPAC Names• Find the longest continuous carbon chain.• Number the carbons, starting closest to
the first branch.• Name the groups attached to the chain,
using the carbon number as the locator.• Alphabetize substituents.• Use di-, tri-, etc., for multiples of same
substituent.
Chapter 3 7
Longest Chain• The number of carbons in the longest
chain determines the base name: ethane, hexane. (Listed in Table 3.2, page 82.)
• If there are two possible chains with the same number of carbons, use the chain with the most substituents.

Physical Properties
• Solubility: hydrophobic
• Density: less than 1 g/mL
• Boiling points increase with increasing carbons (little less for branched chains).
Melting points increase with increasing carbons (less for odd- number of carbons).
•
Chapter 3 16
Boiling Points of AlkanesBranched alkanes have less surface area contact,so weaker intermolecular forces.
=>
Chapter 3 17
Melting Points of AlkanesBranched alkanes pack more efficiently intoa crystalline structure, so have higher m.p.
=>
Chapter 3 18
Branched Alkanes
• Lower b.p. with increased branching
• Higher m.p. with increased branching

Major Uses of Alkanes
• C1-C2: gases (natural gas)
• C3-C4: liquified petroleum (LPG)
• C5-C8: gasoline
• C9-C16: diesel, kerosene, jet fuel
• C17-up: lubricating oils, heating oil
• Origin: petroleum refining =>

Conformers of Alkanes
• Structures resulting from the free rotation of a C-C single bond
• May differ in energy. The lowest-energy conformer is most prevalent.
• Molecules constantly rotate through all the possible conformations. =>
Chapter 3 22
Ethane Conformers
• Staggered conformer has lowest energy.
• Dihedral angle = 60 degrees

Ethane Conformers (2)• Eclipsed conformer has highest energy
• Dihedral angle = 0 degrees
=>
Chapter 3 24
Conformational Analysis• Torsional strain: resistance to rotation.
• For ethane, only 12.6 kJ/mol
=>
Chapter 3 25
Propane ConformersNote slight increase in torsional strain
due to the more bulky methyl group.
=>
Chapter 3 26
Butane Conformers C2-C3
• Highest energy has methyl groups eclipsed.
• Steric hindrance
• Dihedral angle = 0 degrees
=>totally eclipsed
Chapter 3 27
Butane Conformers (2)
• Lowest energy has methyl groups anti.
• Dihedral angle = 180 degrees
=>

Chapter 3 28
Butane Conformers (3)• Methyl groups eclipsed with hydrogens• Higher energy than staggered
conformer• Dihedral angle = 120 degrees
=>eclipsed
Chapter 3 29
Butane Conformers (4)
• Gauche, staggered conformer
• Methyls closer than in anti conformer
• Dihedral angle = 60 degrees
=>gauche

Higher Alkanes
• Anti conformation is lowest in energy.
• “Straight chain” actually is zigzag.

Cycloalkanes
• Rings of carbon atoms (-CH2- groups)
• Formula: CnH2n
• Nonpolar, insoluble in water
• Compact shape• Melting and boiling points similar to
branched alkanes with same number of carbons =>
Chapter 3 33
Naming Cycloalkanes
• Cycloalkane usually base compound• Number carbons in ring if >1 substituent.• First in alphabet gets lowest number.• May be cycloalkyl attachment to chain.

• Trans: like groups on opposite sides of ring =>

Cycloalkane Stability
• 5- and 6-membered rings most stable
• Bond angle closest to 109.5• Angle (Baeyer) strain

Cyclopentane• If planar, angles would be 108, but all
hydrogens would be eclipsed.
• Puckered conformer reduces torsional strain.

Cyclohexane

angles and all hydrogens are staggered.• No angle strain and no torsional strain.

difference between the axial and equatorial conformer.
