B.P. increases with the increase of molecular mass. Among the isomers, straight chain alkane have higher b.p. than branched chain alkane. Melting Point (M.P.) The melting points do not show regular variation with increase in molecular size. The even number members have higher m.p. as compared to next alkanes with odd number of carbon atoms (ALTERATION EFFECT). Solubility They are soluble in non polar solvents but insoluble in polar solvents such as water. Chemical Properties Alkanes are generally inert towards acids, bases, oxidising and reducing agents but they give following reactions: Halogenation. Alkanes undergoes substitution reaction with halogen. Cl2 and Br2 only in presence of ultra violet light or high temperature (573 – 773K). But in presence of direct sunlight reaction is as CH + 2Cl ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯→ C + 4HCl direct sunlight CH4 + Cl2 ⎯⎯h⎯ν → CH3Cl + HCl CH3Cl + Cl2 ⎯⎯h⎯ν → CH2Cl2 + HCl CH2Cl2 + Cl2 ⎯⎯h⎯ν → CHCl3 + HCl CHCl3 + Cl2 ⎯⎯h⎯ν → CCl4 + HCl Decreasing order of reactivity of halogens towards alkanes.

The relative rates of abstraction of various types of hydrogen follow the order : 3ºC : 2ºC : 1ºC Chlorination → 5 : 3.8 : 1 Bromination → 1600 : 82 : 1 Liquid phase For higher alkanes – Fuming HNO3, at 413 K Nitration : e.g., : C6H13 – H + HONO2 C6H13NO2 + H2O Vapour phase For lower alkanes – conc. HNO3, at 670-750 K e.g., : CH3 − NO2 ⎯⎯→CH3NO2 + H2O Oxidation : Alkanes undergo oxidation under special conditions to yield a variety of products.

In fact C–C rotation is hindered by an energy barrier of 1 to 20 kJ × mol–1. There are infinite number of conformers possible. Out of infinite number of conformers extremes can be discussed as Conformers of ethane : H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H Eclipsed Staggered Eclipsed Staggered Sawhorse projection Newmann projection It may be noted that one extreme conformation of ethane can be converted into other extreme conformer by rotation of 60º about C–C bond.

The carbon atoms carrying the unsaturation are sp2 hybridized with the p orbital laterally overlaping to form π-bonds. They have the general formula CnH2n. They are isomeric with cycloalkanes e.g. – C4H8 CH3 – CH2 – CH = CH2 Butene Nomenclature : CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 Cyclobutane The IUPAC rules for naming alkenes are similar in many respects to those for naming alkanes. Hence few solved examples are taken. 1 2 3 4 5 (i) CH3 – CH = CH– CH2 – CH3 2 - pentene CH3 C2H5 CH3– C = CH– CH2 – CH – CH2–CH2–CH3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 5-Ethyl–2–methyl–2–octene Alkene – H = Alkenyl e.g., CH2 = CH– ethenyl (Vinyl group); CH2 = CH – CH2 – propenyl (Allyl group) e.g., CH2 = CH – Cl - Vinyl chloride; CH2 = CH–CH2–OH Allyl alcohol Preparations of Alkenes From Alcohols By heating alcohol with H2SO4 or H3PO4 at 170°C. CH – CH OH 95% H2SO4 CH = CH 3 2 Mechanism : 170°C 2 2 1st step : H2SO4 ⎯⎯→ H+ + HSO – 2nd step : CH – CH – OH + H+ + 3 2 3rd step : CH – CH ⊕ H CH3 – CH2 – OH2 ⊕ CH3 – CH2 + H2O 4th step : + CH2 – CH2 H – CH2 = CH2 +H2SO4 HSO4 Here the 3rd step i.e. formation of carbocation is rate determining step. The ease of dehydration of alcohols depends on the stability of carbocations formed. Hence the order of reactivity of alcohols is ter–> sec–> pri–> CH3 – OH because the incipient carbonium ion stability is ter–> sec–> pri–> CH +. Hydride shift or Example (Hydride shift) CH3 – CH – CH – CH3 CH3 OH Mechanism : H2SO4 170°c + CH3 – C = CH2 – CH3 + CH3 (Major) CH2 = C – CH2 – CH3 CH3 (Minor) CH3 – CH – CH – CH3 + H CH3 O..

Hence (B) product is maximum. Saytzeff’s Rule: It states that “During dehydration of alcohols and dehydrohalogenation of alkyl halides the product formed is preferentially the one in which maximum number of alkyl groups are attached to the doubly bonded carbon atoms. Dehydration by passing over alumina (Lewis Acid) CH – CH OH Al2O3 CH = CH + H O 3 2 CH3 350°C 2 2 2 Al O CH3 2 3 250°C CH3 – CH = CH2 (CH ) C – OH Al2O3 CH – C = CH 3 3 250°C 3 2 The experimental conditions change with the structure of alcohols pri - alcohols ⎯⎯con⎯c.

(i.e., weakly basic halide ion). One may also use sulphonates. Dehydrohalogenation of 2° and 3° alkyl halides follow Saytzeff’s Rule. Exception to Saytzeff’s Rule (Hofmann Rule) When dehydrohalogenation is carried out with potassium, tertiary butoxide there is formation of less substituted alkene.

Boiling point The boiling point of cis–alkenes is usually higher than corresponding trans–alkenes (More polarity). Melting point The melting point of trans-alkenes is usually greater than cis-alkene. (trans form is more symmetrical). Chemical Properties In alkenes C = C bond is made of stable σ-bond and reactive π-bond. As π-bond can easily be broken, alkenes undergo addition reactions.

This is due to the fact that as number of alkyl groups increase the steric hindrance increases and there by rate decreases.

It states that, “During the addition of unsymmetrical reagents to unsymmetrical alkenes, the negative part of the addendum goes to carbon of double bond with least number of atoms”. Example : δ— X H b CH3–CH=CH2 + HX (a) CH3– CH – CH2 CH3–CH–CH3 + X A CH3–CH2–CH2 + X B Since A is more stable than B. Hence A is formed and we get + CH3 – CH – CH3 X CH3 – CH – CH3 | X CH3 – CH = CH2 + HBr CH3– CH– CH3 | Br Kharasch - Mayo Effect If the above reaction is carried out in the presence of some peroxide then addition takes place contrary to Markownikoff’s Rule CH3 – CH = CH2+ HBr ⎯P⎯ero⎯x⎯ide→ CH3– CH2 – CH2 – Br Explanation This can be explained on the basis of free radical formation • Step 1 : R – O – O – R 2R – O • • Step 2 : R – O + HBr ROH + Br CH – CH – CH • (A) | 2 Step 3 : CH3 – CH = CH2 + Br Br 1° Carbon free radical • CH3 – CH – CH2 – Br (B) (B) is more stable than (A). 2° Carbon free radical Addition of Hypohalous Acid C = C+ HOX CH2 = CH2 + HOCl CH2 – CH = CH2 + HOBr Addition of Water C — C OH X CH2 — CH2 OH Cl CH2 – CH – CH2 OH Br This reaction also takes place via carbocation mechanism (Rearrangement possible).

Like the double bond it is unsaturated and highly reactive towards the reagent that double bonds react with and also towards others. The simplest member of the alkyne family is acetylene, C2H2.Each of the carbon atoms carrying the triple bond are sp hybridized. 1s 2s 3p C sp C sp Alkynes the compounds having general formula CnH2n – 2 where n ≥ 2 it can be categorize by two ways. Terminal alkynes : Alkynes having triple bond at one end of the carbon attached to H e.g. CH3–C ≡ C–H, CH3 – CH2–C≡CH. Terminal hydrogen is acidic in nature. Non-terminal alkynes : Alkynes in which both triple bonded carbons are attached to alkyl group. Preparation of Alkynes From Dehydrohalogenation of vicinal or geminal dihalides CH2 | — CH2 | alc.

It is due to formation of some sort of complex of heavy metal ion with π electrons like Hg2+ and this results decrease in electron density around triply bonded carbon atoms and this can be attacked by nucleophiles.

Huckel's rule : A planar molecule having complete delocalisation of (4n + 2) π electrons is termed as aromatic hydrocarbon (where n is any integer) e.g., 4n + 2 = 6 n = 1 ⊕ 4n + 2 = 2 n = 0 4n + 2 = 6 n = 1 CH3 4n + 2 = 6 n = 1 4n + 2 = 6 n = 1 Homologues of Benzene They are all aromatic hydrocarbons. Aromaticity is present due to benzene ring. CH3 C2H5 etc. Electrophilic Aromatic substitution reactions in Benzene : (EAS) Benzene and its homologues readily undergo EAS. As a consequence of complete delocalization of π electrons in benzene, it has π electron cloud over benzene ring which makes electrophile attack over it.

H, — O.. R, — NHR, — NHCOR are activating groups i.e., they increase electron density at ortho and para position, therefore, are ortho and para directing towards electrophilic substitution reactions. Meta substitution : Electron withdrawing groups such as – NO2, – CHO, – COOH, – COCH3, – CN, – SO3H, – COOR are called deactivating groups. They decrease electron density at ortho and para- position, therefore, electrophillic substitution takes place at meta-position.
