The vector sum of the bond moments of a trigonal planar structure would be zero, resulting
in a prediction of μ = 0 D for BF3 . This correlates with the experimental observation and
confirms the prediction of VSEPR theory.

2.7 In CFCl3 the large C F bond moment opposes the C Cl moments, leading to a net dipole
moment in the direction of the fluorine. Because hydrogen is much less electronegative than
fluorine, no such opposing effect occurs in CHCl3 ; therefore, it has a net dipole moment
that is larger and in the direction of the chlorine atoms.

2.25 (a) OH would boil higher because its molecules can form hydrogen bonds to

(b) H would boil higher because its molecules can form hydrogen bonds to
each other through the N H group.

(c) HO OH because by having two O H groups, it can form more hydrogen


bonds.
2.26 Cyclopropane would have the higher melting point because its cyclic structure gives it a
rigid compact shape that would permit stronger crystal lattice forces.

2.27 d < a < b < c


(c) has the highest boiling point due to hydrogen bonding involving its O H group.
(b) is a polar molecule due to its C O group, hence higher boiling than the essentially
non-polar (a) and (d).
(a) has a higher boiling point than (d) because its unbranched structure permits more van
der Waals attractions.
2.28 If we consider the range for carbon-oxygen double bond stretching in an aldehyde or ketone
to be typical of an unsubstituted carbonyl group, we find that carbonyl groups with an oxygen
or other strongly electronegative atom bonded to the carbonyl group, as in carboxylic acids
and esters, absorb at somewhat higher frequencies. On the other hand, if a nitrogen atom
is bonded to the carbonyl group, as in an amide, then the carbonyl stretching frequency
is lower than that of a comparable aldehyde or ketone. The reason for this trend is that
strongly electronegative atoms increase the double bond character of the carbonyl, while
the unshared electron pair of an amide nitrogen atom contributes to the carbonyl resonance
hybrid to give it less double bond character.

Physical Properties

2.36 Explain why 1-pentanol has a solubility of 2.7 grams per 100 mL of water were as methanol
is completely miscible in water.
1-pentanol contains five (5) carbons while methanol has only one (1) carbon. The OH
group in 1-pentanol does confer some water solubility (like-dissolves-like) however, with
the hydrocarbon portion of the molecule being rather large (C5 H11 ) the molecule looks
mostly like “grease”, mostly like an alkane, which would have no water solubility. Methanol
does not look as much like an alkane; half alkane and half water. In methanol the OH
group (aids water solubility) is a larger contributor to the overall structure.

2.37 The attractive forces between hydrogen fluoride molecules are the very strong dipole-dipole
attractions that we call hydrogen bonds. (The partial positive charge of a hydrogen fluoride
molecule is relatively exposed because it resides on the hydrogen nucleus. By contrast, the
positive charge of an ethyl fluoride molecule is buried in the ethyl group and is shielded
by the surrounding electrons. Thus the positive end of one hydrogen fluoride molecule can
approach the negative end of another hydrogen fluoride molecule much more closely, with
the result that the attractive force between them is much stronger.)

2.38 The cis isomer is polar while the trans isomer is nonpolar (μ = 0 D). The intermolecular
attractive forces are therefore greater in the case of the cis isomer, and thus its boiling point
should be the higher of the two.

2.39 Explain why the boiling point of 2,2-dimethylbutane (49.7◦ C) is lower than the boiling point
of hexane (69◦ C) despite the fact that they have the same molecular formula, C6 H14 .
Hexane is a linear, unbranched alkane. Because of the lack of branching, the hexane
chains can get close to one another. The intermolecular attractive forces, although rather
weak, can reinforce each other resulting in the chains being held together more closely.
As energy is supplied, as heat, it first goes to getting the hexane chains apart or away
from one another and then into the vapor phase. 2,2-dimethylbutane is a branched hexane
constitutional isomer. Because of the high degree of branching the chains cannot get close to
one another, and thus are not held together as tightly as in hexane. When energy is supplied
as heat, it does not have to initially get the chains apart from one another, since they are not
held so closely together, resulting in the lower boiling point.

2.43 This is a special case of a Lewis acid (Ag+ ) Lewis base (alkene) reaction. The product
+
C
can be represented by Ag . The filled π orbital of the alkene overlaps with the
C

empty 5s orbital of Ag+ to form a σ bond. A π bond results from the overlap of the filled
4d orbital of Ag+ with an empty antibonding π ∗ orbital of the alkene.

2.44 Without one (or more) polar bonds, a molecule cannot possess a dipole moment and, there-
fore, it cannot be polar. If the bonds are directed so that the bond moments cancel, however,
the molecule will not be polar even though it has polar bonds.

IR Spectroscopy

2.47 (a) The alcohol would have a broad absorption from the O H group in the 3200 to
3500 cm−1 region of its IR spectrum. The ether would have no such absorption.
(c) The ketone would have a strong absorption from its carbonyl group near 1700 cm−1 in
its IR spectrum. The alcohol would have a broad absorption due to its hydroxyl group
in the 3200 to 3500 cm−1 region of its IR spectrum.
(d) Same rationale as for (a).
(e) The secondary amine would have an absorption near 3300 to 3500 cm−1 arising from
N H stretching. The tertiary amine would have no such absorption in this region since
there is no N H group present.
(g) Both compounds would exhibit absorptions near 1710 to 1780 cm−1 due to carbonyl
stretching vibrations. The carboxylic acid would also have a broad absorption some-
where between 2500 and 3500 cm−1 due to its hydroxyl group. The ester would not
have a hydroxyl absorption.

(i) The ketone would have a strong absorption from its carbonyl group near 1700 cm−1 in its
IR spectrum. The alkene would have no such absorption but would have an absorption
between 1620 and 1680 cm−1 due to C C stretching.

2.48 The infrared spectrum of cis-4-octene exhibits an absorption peak near 1500 cm−1 due to
C C stretching, however, trans-4-octene shows no absorption in that region. Explain.
trans-4-octene is symmetric such that when the molecule undergoes vibration there is
very little change in the net dipole moment. In order for a band to be IR active there must
be a change in the net dipole moment during the vibration. In cis-4-octene this high degree
of symmetry is missing and there is a change in the net dipole moment during the course
of the vibration, leading to the observed band at 1500 cm−1 .

Trimethyl amine is a tertiary amine; there are no hydrogens on the nitrogen. Ethyl
methyl amine is a secondary amine; with one hydrogen on the nitrogen. One could use
IR spectroscopy to distinguish between these two compounds, by looking for the N H
stretching band around 3300–3400 cm−1 . There would be no such band for trimethyl amine
while there would be one for ethyl methyl amine.

A shows two N H bands (due to symmetrical and asymmetrical stretching) in the
3100–3400 cm−1 region.
B has a single stretching absorption band in that same region since it has only a single
N H bond.
C has two absorption bands, due to the H C bond of the aldehyde group, at about
2820 cm−1 and 2920 cm−1 , as well as one for the N H bond.
D does not absorb in the 3100–3500 cm−1 region, as the other compounds do, since it
does not possess a N H bond.
