CHE 235 Unit 1 - Chemistry Solutions
CHE 240 Unit III - The Physical and Chemical Properties and Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes.
A. Introduction and Rationale:
The purpose of this unit is to study the nomenclature, properties, structure and synthesis of alkenes and alkynes. Also included is a rigorous examination of the mechanisms of the characteristic reactions.
B. Topics:
1. Alkene structure, nomenclature, and stability of alkenes.
2. Alkene synthesis.
3. Reactions of alkenes and the mechanisms of the reactions.
4. Alkyne structure, nomenclature, and stability of alkynes
5. Acidity of alkynes.
6. Alkene synthesis
7. Reactions of alkynes and the mechanisms of the reactions
B. Objectives: The student should be able to: Use the E-Z and cis-trans systems to name geometric isomers of alkenes.
1. Predict relative stability of alkenes and cycloalkenes based on structure and stereochemistry.
2. Propose mechanisms and predict products for dehydrohalogenation of alkyl halides, dehalogenation of dibromides and dehydration of alcohols.
3. Propose effective single and multi-step syntheses of alkenes.
4. Predict and explain the stereochemistry of E2 eliminations reactions to form alkenes.
5. Predict the products of addition, oxidation, reduction, and cleavage of alkenes with proper regio and stereochemistry.
6. Use retrosynthetic analysis to solve multi-step synthesis problems with alkenes as reagents, intermediates, or products.
7. When more than one method is usable for a chemical transformation, choose the better method and explain its advantages.
D. Learning Activities:
1. Always attend all lectures and practice what you have learned by answering end of chapter Study Problems.
2. Read Chapter Seven in Wade Text.
3. Review Chapter Seven material on Wade website:
4. Read Chapter Eight in Wade Text.
5. Review Chapter Eight material on Wade website:
6. Read Chapter Nine in Wade Text.
7. Review Chapter Three material on Wade website:
E Assessment:
1. Complete Exam on Unit Three
