What is the extended and shortened structural formula for 2-methylpentane

Chemistry

kotykmax [81]3 years ago
6 0

The structural formula for 2-methylpentane is in Figure 1. It shows all the C-C and C-H bonds explicitly.

The bond-line formula for 2-methylpentane is in Figure 2. We assume that a carbon atom is at the ends and junctions of the lines. We do not show the H atom, but we mentally assume that there are enough to give each carbon a valence of four.

A condensed structural formula is designed to be typed <em>all on one line</em>. We could write the condensed structural formula for 2-methylpentane as either (CH₃)₂CH-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃ or CH₃CH(CH₃)CH₂CH₂CH₃.

The horizontal C-C bonds are <em>optional </em>— you can include or omit them as desired.

Which of these are elimination reactions? Check all that apply.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

C3H7OH → C3H6 + H20

Explanation:

If we look at the reactant and the product we will realize that the reactant is an alcohol while the product is an alkene. The reaction involves acid catalysed elimination of water from an alcohol.

Water is a good leaving group, hence an important synthetic route to alkenes is the acid catalysed elimination of water from alcohols. Hence the conversion represented by C3H7OH → C3H6 + H20 is an elimination reaction in which water is the leaving group.
