Other hydrocarbons

Recommended Posts

I know that there are LOADS of hydrocarbons,

 

At the moment i know these:

 

Alkanes: SImple ones

Alkenes: Have double bonds

Alkynes: Have triple bonds

Dienes: Have two double bonds

Trienes: Have three double bonds

 

Can you please give me an example of the follwoing:

-a diene, its general formula, example (displayed formula preferred)

-a triene and its general formula, example (displayed formula preferred)

-an alyne and its general formula, example (displayed formula preferred)

-the name of hydrocabons with 2 triple bonds, general formula and an example (displayed formula preferred)

-the name of hydrocarbons with 3 triple bonds, general formula and an exapmple (displayed formula preferred)

 

 

I know its an immensly HUGE question :zzz: , but :D pleeeaassseeee?

it`s 2 molecules of the same shape, except one is a mirror image of the other.

 

look at the palms of your hand, they`re both the same shape (like the molecule structure) but flipped over :)

 

and it DOES make a huge difference!.

the taste of a carraway seed has a molecule identicall to that of the Spearmint molecule. and yet they taste totaly different, the reason being, they are isomers, 1 one way and the other a miror of it :)

Diene: The simplest diene is 1,3-butadiene, another is 2-methylbuta-1, 3-diene

they contain two double bonds, and the general formula is Cn H2n – 2.

 

Triene: 2-Methylbicyclo[3.2.0]-hepta-1,4,6-triene, they contain three double bonds, and the general formula is Cn H2n –3.

 

Alkadiyne(s): Have two triple bonds, 5-methyl-1-hexyne CH3CH(CH3)CH2CH2C=-CH, cant remember the gf.

 

Triynes: Have three triple bonds, 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid (ETI, 20:3 n5).

 

Carbon and silicon can theoretically form quadruple bonds.

 

My brain isnt working yet, ive named them and helped out on some just google search with the names and you should get what you need.
