Title: Some New Allotropes
1Some New Allotropes
- Fullerenes 5- and 6-membered rings arranged to
form a soccer ball structure. - Nanotubes half of a C60 sphere fused to a
cylinder of fused aromatic rings.
2Common Names of Benzene Derivatives
gt
3Disubstituted Benzenes
The prefixes ortho-, meta-, and para-
are commonly used for the 1,2-, 1,3-, and
1,4- positions, respectively.
gt
43 or More Substituents
Use the smallest possible numbers, but the carbon
with a functional group is 1.
gt
5Common Names forDisubstituted Benzenes
gt
6Phenyl and Benzyl
Phenyl indicates the benzene ring attachment.
The benzyl group has an additional carbon.
gt
7Physical Properties
- Melting points More symmetrical than
corresponding alkane, pack better into crystals,
so higher melting points. - Boiling points Dependent on dipole moment, so
ortho gt meta gt para, for disubstituted benzenes. - Density More dense than nonaromatics, less dense
than water. - Solubility Generally insoluble in water. gt
8IR and NMR Spectroscopy
- CC stretch absorption at 1600 cm-1.
- sp2 C-H stretch just above 3000 cm-1.
- 1H NMR at ?7-?8 for Hs on aromatic ring.
- 13C NMR at ?120-?150, similar to alkene carbons.
