HYDROCARBONS
OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the exercise, the student should be able to:
develop ability to detect and record various signs of chemical change.
describe how hydrocarbon types may be detected and differentiated from each other by means of simple chemical tests (test tube reactions).
compare the reactivity of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic hydrocarbons towards selected chemical reagents; and
carry out the laboratory preparation of acetylene.

Functional Group
is a group of atoms that has
characteristic chemical
behavior in every molecuIe
where it occurs.
(reactive sites)
The chemistry of
every organic molecule,
regardless of size and
complexity, is determined
by the functional groups
it contains.

Explanation:
CH2Cl2 serves as the solvent
- will bring Br2 in contact with the HCs
- good reaction medium since it is both non-polar and
inert towards the HCs and bromine
Bromination reaction of HCs proceed by 2 diff
mechanism:
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Electrophilic Substitution (EA)

-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
requires light or heat

Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
radical - highly reactive because it contains an atom with an odd number of electrons
achieve a valence-shell octet in several ways
radical might abstract an atom and one bonding
electron from another reactant, leaving behind a
new radical
(radical substitution reaction)
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Steps:
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
A halogen atom abstracts hydrogen from the alkane
(RH) to form an alkyl radical (R).
The radical in turn abstracts a halogen atom from a
halogen molecule to yield the alkyl halide (RX).
Which alkyl halide is obtained depends upon which
alkyl radical is formed.
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Study of the halogenation of many alkanes has shown
that the rate of abstraction of H atoms is always found
to follow the sequence: 3 > 2 > 1
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
The relative ease with which the different classes of H
atoms are abstracted is:
Ease of abstraction of H atoms:
3 > 2 > 1 > CH4
(based on the relative stability of the free radicals)
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
relative stability of the free radicals:
- the amount of E needed to form the various classes of
radicals decreases in the order:
CH 3 > 1 > 2 > 3
(abstraction of a 1 H yields a 1 radical,
abstraction of a 2 H yields a 2 radical...)
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
R-H R + H H= bond dissociation energy
if less E is needed to form one radical than another
- the one radical contains less E than the other is more
stable
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Relative to the alkane from which it is formed,
Stability of free radicals:
3 > 2 > 1 > CH 3
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Ease of abstraction of H atoms:
3 > 2 > 1 > CH4
Ease of formation of free radicals:
3 > 2 > 1 > CH 3
The more stable the free radical, the more easily it is
formed.
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Reaction: cyclohexane
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Reaction: toluene
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Reaction:
toluene undergoes bromination at a faster rate despite
that it is brominated at a 1 carbon
explained by the resonance stabilization of benzyllic
free radical
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Free Radical Substitution (FRS)
Reaction:
stability of free-radical:
benzyllic > 3o > 2o > 1o > CH3
ease of formation of free-radical:
benzyllic > 3o > 2o > 1o > CH3
simple generalization:
the reactivity of a H depends chiefly upon its class, and not upon the alkane to which it is attached
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Electrophilic Addition (EA)
can take place even in the dark
no HBr is produced
mechanism by which alkenes and alkynes are
brominated
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Electrophilic Addition (EA)
Electrons in the bond of alkenes/alkynes react with electrophiles
these reagents that are seeking a pair of electrons are
called electrophilic reagents (Greek: electron-loving)
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Electrophilic Addition (EA)
Alkenes are readily converted by Br2 into saturated cpds
that contain two atoms of halogen attached to adjacent
carbons
addition proceeds rapidly at room T or below, and does
not require exposure to UV light
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Electrophilic Addition (EA)
Halogenation/Bromination

Electrophilic Addition (EA)
With alkynes the addition may occur once or twice,
depending on the number of molar equivalents of halogen
we employ:
addition proceeds rapidly at room T or below, and does
not require exposure to UV light
Halogenation/Bromination
-
Electrophilic Addition (EA)
electrophilic addition to an alkene/alkyne involves the
intermediate formation of the more stable carbocation

-
Solubility Tests
Explanation:
Comparative acidities of alcohols and phenols:
The differences in acidities can be explained by the relative stabilities of the conjugate bases.
-
Solubility Tests
Explanation:
Comparative acidities of alcohols and phenols:
conjugate base of alcohol: alkoxide e.g. butanol 1-butoxide
The negative charge on the O atom of the butoxide is
intensified by the electron
releasing alkyl group
(CH3CH2CH2CH2-) and is
therefore destabilized.
-
Solubility Tests
Explanation:
Comparative acidities of alcohols and phenols:
conjugate base of alcohol: alkoxide e.g. 1-butanol 1-butoxide
In fact, most alkoxides are strong bases and will easily
attract protons to form back
the alcohols.
-
Solubility Tests
Explanation:
Comparative acidities of alcohols and phenols:
For phenol, it forms upon losing a proton the resonance-stabilized phenoxide ion.
-
Solubility Tests
Explanation:
Comparative acidities of alcohols and phenols:
Because of the resonance forms of the phenoxide, phenol has a greater tendency to lose a proton to form
the more stable phenoxide ion.
phenol is thus a stronger acid than butanol

Benedicts Test
Sample Result
glucose +
fructose +
sucrose -
lactose +
sucrose hydrolysate +
starch hydrolysate +
cellulose hydrolysate -
Explanation:
In cellulose, no hydrolysis takes place.

Osazone Test
Sample Reaction time*
fructose 2 min
glucose 5 min
sucrose 30 min
lactose Crystals formed are soluble in hot
H2O and crystallizes upon cooling
Reagent: phenyl hydrazine HCl
Positive Result: formation of yellow orange precipitate/crystals
* the time required in forming crystals is used to
identify the carbohydrate

Osazone Test
Explanation:
Phenylhydrazine reacts with carbonyl compounds to
produce phenyhydrazones (osazones)
-
Osazone Test
Explanation:
with enough phenylhydrazine, 3 molar equivalents of
phenylhydrazine are consumed and a second
phenylhydrazone group is introduced at C2
