Structure of the Carbon-Carbon Double Bond
The carbon-carbon double bond is constructed from two sp2 hybridized carbon atoms.
.
.
Covalent Bonding in Ethene
The two carbons and all four hydrogens all lie within the same plane. The bond angles are all 120º.
Nomenclature of Alkenes
1. Select the longest carbon chain containing the double bond as the parent chain. Replace the “-ane” ending with “-ene.
2. Number the parent chain beginning at end closest to the double bond beginning with the first carbon in the chain.
3. Locate and name the substituents in alphabetical order.
4. Compounds with two double bonds are called dienes.
5. Cyclic compounds are named as cycloalkenes. Carbons in the double bond are always numbered first. Then the ring is numbered in the direction so as to give the lowest numbers to substituents.

Summary of Hydrocarbon Bonding
Nomenclature of Alkynes
1. Select the longest carbon chain containing the triple bond as the parent chain. Replace the “-ane” ending with “-yne.
2. Number the parent chain beginning at end closest to the triple bond beginning with the first carbon in the chain.
3. Locate and name the substituents in alphabetical order.

Properties of Alkenes and Alkynes
Chemical Properties
Undergo combustion as do alkanes .
Alkenes and Alkynes-reactive at the multiple bond.
Physical Properties
Nonpolar and insoluble in water as are alkanes.
Nonpolar, therefore Boiling points depend on size and shape.
Alkenes may display cis-trans isomerism.

The four orbitals associated with the
bonding in alkenes or cycloalkenes are the result
of “sp2 hybridizaton.”
Covalent Bonding in Ethene
C2H4, ethene, is formed from two sp2 hybridized carbon atoms and four hydrogen atoms:
Lateral overlap of the unhybridized p orbitals, above and below the triangular planes, results in a π bond of the double bond.
