Title: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: holtadit on November 02, 2009, 01:09:13 pm
Glucose can be represented as
      _
HO-l_l-OH

Draw the structure of a more complex carbohydrate that can be formed from
glucose by condensation polymerisation.


How do u answer this question ? What is the answer ?

Post by: @d!_†oX!© on November 02, 2009, 01:31:49 pm
it will be
   _      _
(-l_l-O-l_l-)n

u just have to remove the hydrogen from both side and continue it from both side.....this will show an ester grouping which is what a carbohydrate is made up of....

exactly adi.\

it does not matter whether it i glucose or ethene

u simply break the double bond.

then extend it past the brackets

then put n at the end.

thats all there is to it.

 Starch is not an ester. Fats have ester linkage. Remember ester linkage is (-l_l-OCO-l_l-). Ester link requires both Carboxyl group and the Alcohol group to be present in the monomer(s).

YAYA!!!!!
ok chill man!!!!!
i m sorry for writing so...just slipped away from my mind!!!

ps eightas wud u mind talking a bit more politely plsss....i saw u on the other thread as well(A*)
its cool that u know the stuff and u are trying to correct people for their benefit...but it wud better if u used a rather softer tone!!!
dont take it personally...its just an advice...rest is upto u!! :)

glucose by condensation polymerisation.


How do u answer this question ? What is the answer ?

it shud be similar to the diagram attached

i know u guyz have answered it, but still for a diagram

and yea...as it is condensation polymerization, the bi-product would be x-molecules of water ..find it attached ...

if y is the number of glucose molecules which combine to form the polysaccharide....

x = y-1

that means there will be y-1 molecules of water formed

neat diagram aadi...
but i think u shud change the middle carbon containing molecule to a box...it luks more like 3 O's together

could someone draw the displayed structural formula of the compound formed when propene reacts with hydrogen chloride.

AND

Can someone also draw the displayed structural formula of Poly(propene) ?

Thanks ppl.

propene  + HCl = Propene Chloride + hydrogen!!

stucture on its way!!

when propene reacts with HCl!!

i'm not sure of that...did u mean when it reacts with chlorine or bromine instead of HCl

and eya for the second one

find the diagram attached
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: ~~~~shreyapril~~~~ on November 04, 2009, 01:30:11 pm
i guess i was wrong!!
it is CH2CH CH3 + HCl = CH3CHClCH3

DIAGRAM ATTACHED!!!
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: @d!_†oX!© on November 04, 2009, 01:30:55 pm
agreed aadi...it shud be propene with Cl2 which will give us C3H5Cl and HCl

Post by: holtadit on November 04, 2009, 01:32:48 pm
A@di is it alright if for poly(propene) i drew this (1st attachment)

and this is the structure i got for propene chloride (2nd attachment). I got two possible structures (one at the top and one at the bottom of the picture).

so which is correct ?
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: ~~~~shreyapril~~~~ on November 04, 2009, 01:33:18 pm
why isnt my ans rite???
it can be as i said also rite???
wait i guess diagram is wrong!!
i'll update it!!
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: Ghost Of Highbury on November 04, 2009, 01:34:42 pm
yes, u can draw that way too..

but ari, i'mnot sure abt the propene + acid...t shud be ...propene + chlorine...check th q again..which year is it?

Go to Question 7 c iii

The MS is attached too.
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: @d!_†oX!© on November 04, 2009, 01:48:01 pm
7 c)ii) is different in the question ppr provided...
it says "Give the structural formula and name of the alcohol formed when but-1-ene reacts
with steam."

r u sure this is the one??
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: holtadit on November 04, 2009, 01:51:39 pm
7 c iii

Its triple i not double i

okay what is the displayed structural formula of poly(butene) ?
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: @d!_†oX!© on November 05, 2009, 01:15:55 pm
hey really sorry ari...just forgot about it yesterday
so yeah...i saw the question...so basically...the diagram that u have made on the last page are correct...both are correct as they are isomers so both will be accepted for sure.....
ur second question....poly(butene)
its simple u just take butene....nd remove the double bond...here is a daigram
    H    H   H
    |     |   |
H-C-C=C-C-H     this is butene
   |  |      |
   H H      H

now rearrange this to move the last methyl group (CH3) below and transfer one of the double bonds to the right to make it a continuous chain

       H        H
       |        |
(-H- C -C - C -)n    this is poly(butene)
       |  |     |  
      H  H  H-C-H
                 |
                 H
or this can be simply written as

(-CH3-CH2CH-)n
               |
              CH3
                                          
                                          
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: holtadit on November 05, 2009, 02:38:43 pm
So is this correct too ? Would an IGCSE examiner except it ?

If it is WRONG then explain to me how u got the CH3 for poly(propene) and how i should be drawing the repeat units for polymers.
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: Ghost Of Highbury on November 05, 2009, 02:44:16 pm
propene is C_3H_6

ok look at the diagram

the first when the first CH2 is put from C_3H_6 ; C_2H_4 remains

next one has a C with  a H bond on top and methyl at the bottom

When the C and H bond is drawn from C_2H_4 remains only CH_3 because 1 C and 1 H is gone..



to form a polymer just remove the double bond and extend the lines outside

yes ari , that shud be correct..

but lemme suggest u something

always...a methyl group i.e CH_3 is better to show in a polymer than an ethyl i.e C_2H_5 or any other alkyl

for that just make one more CH2 and insttad of an ethyl hanging make it to a methyl
Title: Re: Glucose, organic chem., HELP !!
Post by: @d!_†oX!© on November 05, 2009, 02:55:42 pm
i agree with aadi....try to put methyl group....a better idea.more widely accepted...

Point noted. Sorry for asking so many questions guys and thanks for helping me out. But i have one last question:

Is this the correct diagram for the following question?


The synthetic polymer, nylon, has the same linkage as proteins. Draw the structural
formula of nylon.

sryy I mistook it for a normal polyester such as ethene...ws in a hurry,..wanted to go for dinner :D......so the double bond implied was for somethin like polyethene where it splits open...and becomes single

dude...although this is not in course bt just to let u know..
Nylon-6 has only one box cuz its monomer Caproic acid has both amide and carboxylic grouping...
