Alkyl Groups

 

These are composed of hydrocarbons.  there are two categories: saturated (no double or triple bond) and unsaturated (has at least a double bond)

 

ie. methane (s), ethene aka ethylene (uns), ethyne aka acetylene (uns)

Thiol

 

mainly present in meats

also creates disulfide bonds once they interact which makes recycling so difficult because you can't break this bond

Ester

 

Most important functional group of the semester

it is also an alcohol + Carboxylic Acid reaction

alcohol
Term
primary, secondary, tertiary amine
Definition
primary -NH2
secondary loses a H, -R1,-R2,-H
tertiary loses another H, -R1,2,3 and will not go through condensation because there are no H's
Term
saturated
Definition
typically has no double or triple bonds
ie. all animal oils, methane (CH4)
Term
unsaturated
Definition
has a double bond
ie. ethene aka ethylene (C2H4)
ie2. ethyne aka Acetylene (H-C---C-H)
