CHEM 201—Functional Groups
Cards in this deck (33)
- 1Functional GroupsRecognized collections of atoms with the same structure which implies they have the same properties. Have known reactivity
- 2Carboxylic AcidHas a COOH group and has acid properties but can be attached to another molecule
- 3Carboxylic Acid FamilyIncludes carbonyl groups, acid chlorides, acid hydrides, esters, and amides
- 4Carbonyl GroupIs a carbon double-bonded to an oxygen that has two lone pairs
- 5Acid ChloridesHave a carbonyl group connected to a chloride
- 6Acid HydridesHave a carbonyl group that is bonded to an oxygen which is bonded to another carbonyl group
- 7EsterA carbonyl group that is bonded to an oxygen which is bonded to a carbon that is bonded to other things
- 8AmideA carbonyl group that is bonded to a nitrogen
- 9Carbonyl FamilyIncludes ketones, aldehydes, and formaldehydes
- 10KetoneA carbonyl group bonded to two carbons from the central carbon
- 11AldehydeA carbonyl group bonded to a carbon and a hydrogen
- 12FormaldehydeA carbonyl group bonded to two hydrogens from the central carbon
- 13Alcohol FamilyIncludes ethers and amines
- 14EtherAn oxygen with two lone pairs bonded to a carbon on either side which can be bonded to other things
- 15AmineA nitrogen with two lone pairs that is bonded to three other things
- 16PolarityThe carboxylic acid family will be polar because of the carbonyl dipole on the edge of the molecule, and the alcohol family will be non-polar because more than one dipole is pointing inward
- 17Constitutional IsomersWhen a something has the same molecular formula but different connectivity
