The following Table Covers Chemistry topics from the simplicity of atoms to the complexity of Organic Systems. An attempt was made to maintain a vertical rule in increasing complexity of the system, that is atoms are before molecules, before organic molecules and before thermodynamic reactions. Thermodynamics. Although not strictily enforced the hierarchy will make searching for terms more easily. SF will be updating the table format as we work to improve site navigation. SSFF hopes the table will help people find useful information by association. All input is greatly appreciated! Write to info@syntheticforest.net, we'll gladly answer any questions or take feedback to improve your experience within The Forest.

Does anybody know? Has anybody seen an atom?

How big is it? How do we know? Is there Similitude between Atoms and Galaxies?

Are there more Atoms in the Periodic Table that we do not know of?

Where did you see your first atom?

Is the atom a particle? Is it a wave? Is a Photon an atom?

Effective nuclear charge

#protons - nonvalence electrons.

Higher nuclear charge = smaller atomic radius.

 

Periodic Trends

The Periodicity of Elemental Structure:

Electron Affinity vs Electronegativity vs Ionization Energy

The Periodic table is not a square table ;

Atomic Radius increases down a column and to the left in a period.

Ionization Energy increases to the right in a period and up in a column. Helium has highest ionization energy.

Electron Affinity: Increases to the right in a period and up in a column. Generally it increases up in a column, ex Cl vs F

Electronegativity: Increases up a column and to the right. FOClNlBrISCH:decreasing order of electronegativity

Electron Affinity follows trend of Electronegativity, generally increasing as a more stable structure is formed when an electron is gained. Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. Electronegativity with respect to an atom in a molecule.

Lattice energy is the energy released when a crystal is formed from its constituting ions. e.g. Na+ Cl- -> NaCl(s). The ionic bond is stronger as the charges between atoms is larger. Al(OH)3 is insoluble in water because of large lattice energy

Acidity increases to the right in a period and down a column. Is related to the stability of the anion. As the size of the anion is increased charge can become delocalized easier.

 
Periodic Exceptions

Cl has higher electron affinity but lower Electronegativity than F because of electron pair repulsion in the valence shell.

Transition metal: When d-block elements form ions, the 4s electrons are lost first.

Vanadium has a higher melting point than Cr. Generally melting point is increased to the right within a period because of london/induced dipole forces.

V:[Ar] 4s2 3d3; V3+[Ar] 3d2

Cr has a half filled d level [Ar] 4s1 3d5

Cu: [Ar] 4s1 3d10

Au: has only one valence electron:

Ag: [Kr] 5s1 4d10

 

21Scandium and 22Titanium:

Bonding

Charge, Ionic and Polyatomic Ions, Ionic Strength; Hydrogen Bond, Electronegativity, NH4+, PO4-3, SO4-2, ate-ite

 
Covalent Bonding Hybridization, Geometries sp3, sp2, sp Carbocation has sp2, trigonal planar geometry
Hydrogen Bonding: Dipole Moments

FON: A hydrogen bonded to a electronegative halogen can Hydrogen bond with another electronegative halogen. This can occur intramolecularly within short distances, around 1 C-C length.

 

Acid and Bases: Reduction Oxidation Reactions:

Lewis Acid, Bronsted Acid, Lewis Base, Bronsted Base,

Buffer, K, pK, Strong vs Weak Acids, Titration, Hydrolysis,

Electrolytic Cell, Anode Cathode, Galvanic vs Electrolytic Cell, Reduction Potential.

Disproportionation

Arrhenius Acids yield H+.

If a substance accepts a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond it is condsidered a Lewis Acid.

Reducing Agents: Reductor: Reducer: looses electrons: LiAlH4, H2.

Metals act as electron donors giving off ions in solution.Then it is said that the metal has been oxidized. Fe(s)-> Fe++ + 2e-. Substances that are oxidized act as REDUCING AGENTS.

Reducing Agents are oxidized. Oxidizing Agents are Reduced.

Oxidant = Oxidizing Agent = Oxidizer

Reductant = Reducing Agent = Reducer. Reducers gain Electrons given by the Reducing Agent that has been Oxidized (donating electrons).

LiAlH4 + 4 H2O → LiOH + Al(OH)3 + 4 H2

CARDIO Base: Charge-Atomis size-Resonance-Dipole Induction-Orbital: more negatively charged species are more basic, larger atoms with negative charges are more stable weaker bases, more resonance more stability, sp3 more basic than sp2...

NADP+ + 2H2O -> 2NADPH + 2H+ +CO2

NADP+ accepts electrons from water. This is a reduction. NADPH is the reducing agent.

NADH IS NOT NADPH.

Acidity and Melting Point are not related.

Larger atoms are more acid because can form more stable anions.

Redox

 

Oxidation: Gain of O, Loss of e-, Loss of H+

 

 

Arrhenius Definition

 

Arrenius Acids : Donate H+

Arrhenius Base: Accepts H+

Compounds ionize in solution (water only).

 

Lewis Definition

 

Lewis Acid accepts e- pair: Electrophile: Trigonal Planar BR3 with empty p orbital. H+ is a LA.

H+ + NH3 → NH4+ . Carbonium is electrophilic thereby a strong LA.

Strong Lewis acids are electron deficient. Strong Lewis Bases are electron rich.

Lewis Acid Base Pair

Lewis Base donates NONBONDING e- pair: H-, F-; are NUCLEOPHILES

Basic Amino Acids: Lys, Arg, His.

Conjugates of Strong Acid/Base have no effect on pH:

 

Bronsted Lowry Acids increase H3O+, Bases Increase -OH  
Conjugate Acid/Base Pairs

To find the conjugate base of an acid, take off a H+

HCl is a strong acid. Cl-, its conjugate base has no effect on pH. Acids dissociate completely. The more stable is the anion the more acid is the molecule.

NH4Cl: NH4+ is the conjugate acid of weak base NH3

Weak base NH3, conjugate acid NH4+ strong acid.

acid + base = conjugate acid + conjugate base

Strong Acids: HNO3, H2SO4, HCl, HClO4, HBr, HI

SuperStrongAcids: HFSO3-SbF5

other scales beside pH are used to measure SSA.

Corrosiveness NOT EQUAL to Strength = HF

Ka vs pKa

COOH has a pKa of 4 - 5

The lower the pKa the higher the Ka. Low pKa are acidic. High pKa are basic.

When pKa and Ka are equal the compound is in equilibrium and the slope of titration curve is linear.

ΔU = ΔH - p ΔV

Gauss Law: I = EAcos(-)

F = qvB sin(-)

F = qE

Coulomb's law k = 9E9 Nm^2/C^2

Electric field lines move out of the positive charge and into negative charges.

V=J/C

A dipole aligns so that the positive lines are "into the negative and out of the positive". The positive end of the dipole will be aligned with the electric field lines.

Charge moving in a circle: F = qvB = mv^2/r ; if qvB> mv^2/r the charge is spiralling in. if qvB<mv^2/r the charge is curving.

Current Carrying wires:

F = qvB sinθ = (it)vB sinθ = (it)(L/t)B sinθ = iLB sinθ

A negative Force means that charges are attracting.

Current

CURRENT TRENDS: Conventional Current Flow is Opposite to Electron Current Flow. Arbitrarily the current flows out of the short battery symbol into the circuit.

The Current in a Parallel Circuit is Split at Ramifications like water flow.

The current in a Series Circuit is Steady. What drops is the voltage (like water pressure), as a loss to Impedance.

 

Resistors in series have the SAME current.

Electrolytic Cell

E(cell) > 0, the reaction is spontaneous and happens in a galvanic cell.

Faraday's law

E(cell) = E(oxidation) + E(reduction)

 
Galvanic = Voltaic Cell

Two pure metals connected by a salt bridge.

Oxidized species + e- = Reduced Species

Metal cations induce reduction of metals in other cell. So the more positive Oxidation Potential Metal gives off electrons from the Anode to the other metal Cathode . Zn + Cu2+ → Zn2+ + Cu . In a galvanic cell of Zn and Cu electrodes. The Zinc electrodes looses mass as electrons go to Cu2+ and Zn++ goes into solution.

Charles law: V/T = k: direct proportionality: V1/T1 = V2/T2

Avogradro's Law: V1/N1 = V2/N2

Dalton's Law: p = xP also vi = V * pi/P

Henry's law pi = k ci: pi is the partial pressure of the solute.

"At a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas that dissolves in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid."

Raoult's law: p = p* x; p* is the vapor pressure of pure component.

Raoult vs Henry: Henry is more related to solute, Raoult to solvent: When the solvent is in a great quantity the constant of proportionaliy is the partial pressure of the solvent.

Nomenclature of Alkanes

1. Take longer chain

2. Number the carbons of the parent chain from the end that gives the substituents the lowest numbers. When compairing a series of numbers, the series that is the "lowest" is the one which contains the lowest number at the occasion of the first difference. If two or more side chains are in equivalent positions, assign the lowest number to the one which will come first in the name.

3. If chains of equal length are competing for selection as the parent chain, then the choice goes in series to:
a) the chain which has the greatest number of side chains.
b) the chain whose substituents have the lowest- numbers.
c) the chain having the greatest number of carbon atoms in the smaller side chain.
d)the chain having the least branched side chains.

"one ketone stays the same and bonds with a double bond through the alpha carbon, after dehydration, so the carbonyl oxygen of the ketone that does not have alpha hydrogen is lost.

study mechanism

 

 
Acyl Group Carboxylic Acids> Acyl Halide, Acid Anhydride, Ester, Amide

Acyl derivatives interconvert to lower reactivity.

Acid Halide > Acid Anhydride > Ester > Amide

less hindered carbonyl is more reactive.

Carboxylic Acids

Acetate CH3 COOR

Acidity Order: HC l> Carboxylic Acid > Substituted Phenol > diketone > ketone

Bases Deprotonate to give COO- Salts

Carboxylic Acids:

Nucleophilic Addition Elimination

electronegative groups allow attack at the Carbonyl and serve as good leaving groups.  
Carboxylic Acids Transesterification: Alcohol + Carboxylic Acid gives Ester.  
Ester are neutral in solution.  
Ester Hydrolysis

Chromatography

TLC R factor: Polar molecules are retained by Silica, so have smaller R f.  
Size Exclusion Chromatography SEC Large Elute First.

Size Exclusion, gel permeation chromatography or gel filtration chromatography. separates particles on the basis of molecular size (actually by a particle's Stokes radius). It is generally a low resolution chromatography and thus it is often reserved for the final, "polishing" step of the purification. It is also useful for determining the tertiary structure and quaternary structure of purified proteins. SEC is used primarily for the analysis of large molecules such as proteins or polymers. SEC works by trapping these smaller molecules in the pores of a particle. The larger molecules simply pass by the pores as they are too large to enter the pores.

     

SDS-PAge

Electrophoretic mobility. Native proteins, or denatured. Structured or unstructured, .

SDS is anionic detergent to linearize proteins and give negatice charge. Even proportionation of charge to mass, so particles are sorted by size. Membrane hydrophobic proteins are difficult to treat with sds. Silver Staining.

Iodomelatonin in the presence of selective antagonist for the receptor

We have pharmacologically characterized recombinant human mt1 and MT2 receptors, stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-mt1 and CHO-MT2), by measurement of [3H]-melatonin binding and forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP (cAMP) production.

[3H]-melatonin bound to mt1 and MT2 receptors with pKD values of 9.89 and 9.56 and Bmax values of 1.20 and 0.82pmolmg−1 protein, respectively. Whilst most

Whilst most melatonin receptor agonists had similar affinities for mt1 and MT2 receptors, a number of putative antagonists had substantially higher affinities for MT2 receptors, inclu ding luzindole (11 fold), GR128107 (23 fold) and 4-P-PDOT (61 fold).

In both CHO-mt1 and CHO-MT2 cells, melatonin inhibited forskolin-stimulated accumulation of cyclic AMP in a concentration-dependent manner (pIC50 9.53 and 9.74, respectively) causing 83 and 64% inhibition of cyclic AMP production at 100nM, respectively. The potencies of a range of melatonin receptor agonists were determined. At MT2 receptors, melatonin, 2-iodomelatonin and 6-chloromelatonin were essentially equipotent, whilst at the mt1 receptor these agonists gave the rank order of potency of 2-iodomelatonin>melatonin>6-chloromelatonin.

In both CHO-mt1 and CHO-MT2 cells, melatonin-induced inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production was antagonized in a concentration-dependent manner by the melatonin receptor antagonist luzindole, with pA2 values of 5.75 and 7.64, respectively. Melatonin-mediated responses were abolished by pre-treatment of cells with pertussis toxin, consistent with activation of Gi/Go G-proteins.

 
     
     
SPECTROSCOPY
   
Mass Spectroscopy

Base Peak is the largest peak. It is fragmented.

Parent peak is the ion of the molecule without fragmentation.

Uncharged molecules are not detected.

More fragmentation produces smaller peaks.

Shielding/Deshielding

Electron donating are shielding, Electron Withdrawing are deshielding.

Left axis has larger number. So deshielded protons appear to the left=downfield (-RCOOH). Shielded protons appear to the right (H-C-CH3x3)

1-propyne vs 1 propene: s haracter is less shielding.

ORDER: Aldehyde and Carboxylic- Aromatic- Vinillyc--- Halogen, ether, allyl, alkyne, benzyllic .

Allylic proton is very deshielded.

Memorize the 6-8ppm region is Aromatic.

Geminal Methyl Groups are identical.

  One Arcminute is equal to 1/60 of one degree. One Arcsecond is equal to 1/60 Arcminute. So One Arcsecond is equal to 1/3600 of a degree.  
  One degree is 1/360 of a circle. One Arcminute is (1/60)(1/360)=(1/21600) of a Circle. 1deg=3600arcseconds;  
  To complete a circle of 360deg, with a frequency of 500arcsec/century will take (360)(3600)/500 centuries.
