I. Molecule's Degree of Unsaturation* *to avoid confusion, we shall use "degree of unsaturation" to refer to the number of pi bonds or number of rings present in the molecule as a result of the loss of hydrogen atoms when referenced using the alkane formula of C,„H2n+2" The numerical value for the degree of unsaturation = 1 means that a molecule of hydrogen, H,, or two atoms of hydrogen are lost and instead 1 pi bond OR 1 ring is seen in the molecule. For this exercise, determine the degree of unsaturation of each of the following compounds: CH3 1. 2,3,3-Trimethyl-1,4,6-octatriene CH3 6. CH3 2. 3-Ethyl-2,2,-dimethyl-3-heptene `CH3 3. 2-Methyl-1,5-hexadiene 8. 7. ÇH3 H. CH3 4. 4-tert-Butyl-2-methylheptane Answers: 1. L2. 3. _4. 5. 6. _7. 8. 5.

What functional group is at 763ppm? For HNMR at about 2.3ppm is it a quintuplet? How do I get the structure from this?
The German chemist J. Bredt proposed in 1935 that bicycloalkenes such as 1-norbornene, which have a double bond to the bridgehead carbon, are too strained to exist. Explain. (Making a molecular model will be helpful.)
Explain briefly and clearly the following concepts, taking as reference the molecule of n-butane and the corresponding drawings or illustrations.

Structural Isomers: Alkanes One of the reasons for the complexity of carbon compounds is that it can bond (catenate) with itself. Oils are mostly made up of hydrocarbons, for 'saturated' compounds, these obey the formula CnH2n+2. The empirical formula (unlike benzene) will vary with n. Now we have established C is tetrahedral, how many structural (skeletal) isomers can we find for n=6, hexane C6H14 ? 1) Sketch all the isomers. What procedure did you use to make sure you didn’t miss any ? Do you think you could you do this now for heptane C7H16 ?! (Hint: 9 different ‘skeletal’ topologies) Note the number of possible isomers increases in highly exponential way. C10 – 75 isomers C15 – 4,347 isomers C20 - 366,319 isomers !!
