Chapter 3, Problem 15CTQ

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Dotted lines to show π bond can form between the two white p orbitals should be added.

  Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry, Chapter 3, Problem 15CTQ , additional homework tip  1

Concept introduction: Bonds formed due to head-to-head overlap are termed sigma bond while ones formed by sideways or lateral overlap are named pi-bonds.

A single bond has one σ bond; double bond has one σ bond along with one π bond while triple bond has two π bonds in addition to one σ bond. For instance, pi bond formation that involves lateral overlap of dumble bell lobes of p orbital as in case of a triple bond are illustrated as follows:

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Dotted lines to show σ bond that can form between the two white p orbitals should be labeled.

  Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry, Chapter 3, Problem 15CTQ , additional homework tip  3

Concept introduction: Bonds formed due to head-to-head overlap are termed sigma bond while ones formed by sideways or lateral overlap are named pi-bonds.

A single bond has one σ bond; double bond has one σ bond along with one π bond while triple bond has two π bonds in addition to one σ bond. There are two possible overlaps by s orbital that results in head to head overlap and sigma bond formation. These are illustrated as follows:

Answer the following question
b) Now draw those atomic orbitals you obtained in part (a), and then overlap them to (1 form the C-F bonds (you only have to draw ONE C-F bond) and bonds of the C=O. Feel free to draw as many drawings as you need. Make them clear. Label the atomic orbitals of all atoms and also label the resulting bonds as σ or TT. NO EXPLANATIONS ON THIS PAGE - JUST THE ORBITALS (LOBES)
