Chemistry - A Molecular Science

Chapter 13 Organic Chemistry

After studying the material presented in this chapter, you should be able to: 1. convert skeletal structures into condensed structures (Section 13.1); 2. name alkanes and simple alkenes (Section 13.2); 3. draw constitutional isomers for simple organic molecules (Section 13.3); 4. identify stereocenters and draw the enantiomer of a molecule with a stereocenter

(Section 13.3);

5. recognize an alkene and distinguish between

cis

and

trans

isomers (Section 13.2);

6. recognize an alcohol and name simple alcohols (Section 13.4); 7. recognize a carbonyl group and draw th

e carbocation resonance form and explain its

reactivity (Section 13.4);

8. recognize a carboxylic acid and explain its acidity (Section 13.4); 9. name simple carboxylic acids (Section 13.4); 10. identify amines and explain their reactivity (Section 13.4); 11. predict the product of the addition of a hydrohalic acid to an alkene (Section 13.5); 12. predict the structure of the ester formed

by the reaction of a carboxylic acid and an

alcohol (13.5);

13. predict the structure of the amide formed by the reaction of an ester and an amine

(Section 13.5);

14. identify the repeat unit of an addition polymer (Section 13.6); 15. predict the repeat unit of a nylon from the reacting diester and diamine (Section 13.6); 16. draw the structure of the peptide resulting from the reaction of two amino acids (Section

13.6); and

17. predict the repeat unit of a polyester from the reacting diacid and diol (Section 13.6).
