Alkanes All C atoms are sp3. Since there are no multiple bonds,
alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons. General formula for noncyclic alkanes
is CnH2n+2. The noncyclic alkanes are a
homologous series, differing only by the number of methylene -CH2- groups.

Nomenclature of Alkanes Rule #4: If two or more substituents
are present, list them in alphabetical order. If more than one of the SAME substituent is
present, use di-, tri-, tetra-, etc. Do not alphabetize a hyphenated
beginning. E.g., t-butyl is alphabetized as “b”, but isobutyl is “i”.
Do not alphabetize a numerical prefix. E.g., dimethyl is alphabetized as “m”.

Physical Properties of Alkanes
Used as fuels, solvents, lubricants Nonpolar
hydrophobic (water-hating) Densities of n-alkanes ≈ 0.7 g/mL Intermolecular force is dispersion
(van der Waal’s), so bp’s increase with increasing surface area, as do mp’s of n-alkanes.
![Page 19: Unit 2 Alkanes and Chemical Reactions. Alkanes Nomenclature Physical Properties Reactions Structure and Conformations Cycloalkanes cis-trans](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d175503460f949ecfc3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Physical Properties of Alkanes
Boiling points Straight-chain compounds will have the
highest bp’s. The more branched the chain, the more
compact the molecule, and the lower the bp (due to smaller dispersion attractions).
![Page 20: Unit 2 Alkanes and Chemical Reactions. Alkanes Nomenclature Physical Properties Reactions Structure and Conformations Cycloalkanes cis-trans](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d175503460f949ecfc3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Physical Properties of Alkanes
Melting points of branched alkanes The effect of branching on melting point is
more difficult to predict. For a given number of carbons, the more compact molecule will have the higher melting point. (Because it packs better.)

Newman Projections
Pick a C-C bond and look along that axis.*
* Here’s where those modeling kits come in handy.

Newman Projections of Ethane Conformations
![Page 26: Unit 2 Alkanes and Chemical Reactions. Alkanes Nomenclature Physical Properties Reactions Structure and Conformations Cycloalkanes cis-trans](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d175503460f949ecfc3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Torsional Strain The eclipsed conformation has a
higher energy than the other conformations, so there is some resistance to rotation. This resistance is called torsional
strain (or steric strain). Ethane at room temperature has
more than enough energy to overcome this resistance.
![Page 27: Unit 2 Alkanes and Chemical Reactions. Alkanes Nomenclature Physical Properties Reactions Structure and Conformations Cycloalkanes cis-trans](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d175503460f949ecfc3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Newman Projections of Butane Conformations
anti is the lowest energy conformation.
![Page 28: Unit 2 Alkanes and Chemical Reactions. Alkanes Nomenclature Physical Properties Reactions Structure and Conformations Cycloalkanes cis-trans](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d175503460f949ecfc3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Conformations of Butane
More distinct conformations are possible.
The anti conformation has the lowest energy. This is why we draw C skeletons as
zigzag lines. Gauche conformations are
responsible for “kinks” in the C chain.
![Page 29: Unit 2 Alkanes and Chemical Reactions. Alkanes Nomenclature Physical Properties Reactions Structure and Conformations Cycloalkanes cis-trans](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d175503460f949ecfc3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Steric Hindrance The totally eclipsed conformation of
butane has a higher energy than its other conformations due to torsional strain, aka steric strain,
and sometimes called steric hindrance. The H atoms of the methyl groups are
actually in each other’s way in the totally eclipsed conformation.
However, butane at room temperature has enough energy to rotate through the totally eclipsed conformation.
