Orbital Description
•
•
•
•
•
Sigma bonds around C are sp2 hybridized.
Angles are approximately 120 degrees.
No nonbonding electrons.
Molecule is planar around the double bond.
Pi bond is formed by the sideways overlap of
parallel p orbitals perpendicular to the plane
of the molecule.
=>
Chapter 7

Pi Bond
• Sideways overlap of parallel p orbitals.
• No rotation is possible without breaking
the pi bond (63 kcal/mole).
• Cis isomer cannot become trans without
a chemical reaction occurring.
=>

Elements of
Unsaturation
• A saturated hydrocarbon: CnH2n+2
• Each pi bond (and each ring) decreases the
number of H’s by two.
• Each of these is an element of unsaturation.
• To calculate: find number of H’s if it were
saturated, subtract the actual number of H’s,
then divide by 2.
=>

Propose a Structure:
for C5H8
• First calculate the number of elements of
unsaturation.
• Remember:
 A double bond is one element of unsaturation.
 A ring is one element of unsaturation.
 A triple bond is two elements of unsaturation. =>
Chapter 7
5
Heteroatoms
• Halogens take the place of hydrogens, so
add their number to the number of H’s.
• Oxygen doesn’t change the C:H ratio, so
ignore oxygen in the formula.
• Nitrogen is trivalent, so it acts like half a
carbon.

Structure for C6H7N?
• Since nitrogen counts as half a carbon,
the number of H’s if saturated is
2(6.5) + 2 = 15.
• Number of missing H’s is 15 – 7 = 8.
• Elements of unsaturation is 8 ÷ 2 = 4.
=>

IUPAC Nomenclature
• Parent is longest chain containing the
double bond.
• -ane changes to -ene. (or -diene, -triene)
• Number the chain so that the double
bond has the lowest possible number.
• In a ring, the double bond is assumed to
be between carbon 1 and carbon 2.

E-Z Nomenclature
• Use the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules to
assign priorities to groups attached to
each carbon in the double bond.
• If high priority groups are on the same
side, the name is Z (for zusammen).
• If high priority groups are on opposite
sides, the name is E (for entgegen).

Substituent Effects
• More substituted alkenes are more stable.
H2C=CH2 < R-CH=CH2 < R-CH=CH-R < R-CH=CR2 < R2C=CR2
unsub. < monosub. < disub.
< trisub. < tetra sub.
• Alkyl group stabilizes the double bond.
• Alkene less sterically hindered.
=>
Chapter 7
16
Cycloalkene Stability
• Cis isomer more stable than trans.
• Small rings have additional ring strain.
• Must have at least 8 carbons to form a
stable trans double bond.
• For cyclodecene (and larger) trans
double bond is almost as stable as the
cis.

Removing HX via E2
• Strong base abstracts H+ as X- leaves
from the adjacent carbon.
• Tertiary and hindered secondary alkyl
halides give good yields.
• Use a bulky base if the alkyl halide
usually forms substitution products.

E2: Vicinal Dibromides
• Remove Br2 from adjacent carbons.
• Bromines must be anti-coplanar (E2).
• Use NaI in acetone, or Zn in acetic acid.

Dehydration of
Alcohols
• Reversible reaction
• Use concentrated sulfuric or phosphoric
acid, remove low-boiling alkene as it
forms.
• Protonation of OH converts it to a good
leaving group, HOH
• Carbocation intermediate, like E1
• Protic solvent removes adjacent H+
