PART 3

Molded particles (kitchenware); fibers for
indoor-outdoor carpeting

They are less dense than water and,
being nonpolar, are not very soluble in
water

As with alkenes, compounds with four or
fewer carbons are

higher homologs are

C2-C4

C5-C14

> C15

In ALKANES the most common reaction
is

R-H stands for an

A-B may stand for

In ALKENES the most common reaction
is

If an acid catalyst (H2SO4 or HCl) is
present, water adds to alkenes. It adds
as H-OH, and the products are
alcohols

Alcohols react with alkenes in the same
way that water does. Like the addition of
water, the addition of an alcohol requires

the product of the addition of alcohol is

The addition of hydrogen to alkenes in
the presence of a catalyst

is used commercially to convert
vegetable oils to margarine and other
cooking fats

unsaturated hydrocarbon. It
has 3 bonds between 2 carbons.

(fungicidal agent)

(powerful antibiotics and
anticancer)

(convulsant)

the simplest and
smallest alkynes (used in welding torch)

Drug sources of alkynes

o Analgesic
o Parsal, Sinovial

o Component of oral contraceptive
o Norquen, Ovaxtol

o Antihypertensive
o Eudatin, Supirdyl

the hydrogen will add to the sp carbon
bonded to the hydrogen

The product of the second addition
reaction is a (?), a
molecule with two halogens on the same
carbon

Alkynes undergo the acid-catalyzes
addition of water. The product of the
reaction is an

has a carbon-carbon double
bond and an –OH group bonded to one
of the sp2 carbons

The enol immediately rearranges to a
