\"Aliphatic\"Adjective aliphatic<\/strong> It is used in the field of chemistry<\/strong> to qualify those organic compounds that have a open chain<\/strong> as the structure of its molecules. In this way, it is possible to speak of different compounds of the aliphatic type.<\/p>\n

It is called aliphatic hydrocarbon<\/strong> to the organic compound that is formed with hydrogen<\/strong> Y carbon<\/strong> and that it lacks aromaticity, a chemical property linked to the behavior of the electrons that are in the double bonds. These electrons, since they can move freely between the different bonds, both simple and double, give a degree of stability to the molecule that would not be possible to achieve if they remained fixed in the bond.<\/p>\n

When designing a graphic representation of the molecule taking aromaticity into account, the double bonds in one of the configurations should be drawn and related to the others through arrows, to express the other opportunities that electrons have to form new ones. links around ring<\/strong> aromatic. An example of this behavior can be seen in benzene, whose molecule has more than one resonance state and its double bonds alternate with the simple ones.<\/p>\n

There are many concepts related to the term aliphatic<\/em>; such is the case of alkanes<\/strong>, hydrocarbons that exclusively contain atoms<\/strong> hydrogen and carbon. They are also known as saturated hydrocarbons<\/strong>, since they do not have double or triple bonds, which is why their carbons present a rearrangement of their electrons called hybridization<\/em>. On the other hand, they do not have functional groups either.<\/p>\n

These aliphatic hydrocarbons can be cyclical<\/strong> or acyclic<\/strong>. In the case of cyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons<\/strong>, its aliphatic chain manages to close and forms a ring. A cycloalkane<\/strong> (or cyclic alkane<\/em>), therefore, it is a hydrocarbon<\/strong> saturated composed only of carbon atoms that are joined through single bonds that acquire a ringed shape. The generic formula for cyclic alkanes is CnH2nl<\/p>\n

The acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons<\/strong> they present a linear hydrocarbon grouping. The simplest of these organic compounds are the aliphatic alkanes<\/strong>, with a branched or straight chain and without groups<\/strong> functional.<\/p>\n

The reactivity of aliphatic alkanes is very small in contrast to that of other organic compounds. All your links are of type sigma<\/em><\/strong>, that is, simple; are covalent and have a single pair of electrons in an orbital s<\/strong>, and therefore in his structure<\/strong> You can see a series of lines that represent the covalent bonds by means of which each bonded atom shares a pair of electrons with the others.<\/p>\n

\"Aliphatic\"An example of aliphatic alkane<\/strong> is he propane<\/strong>, a gas derived from petroleum that has three carbon atoms. Its chemical formula is C3H8<\/strong>: through industrial processes that allow gas to be liquefied, propane is used as fuel, often combined with butane<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On the other hand we have the following two concepts:<\/p>\n

* alkenes<\/strong>, unsaturated hydrocarbons that have one or more carbon-carbon bond in their molecule<\/strong>. Alkenes can be understood as alkanes that have lost two hydrogen atoms, which produces a bond between two carbons of the double type. Similar to what happens with alkanes, cyclic alkenes are called cycloalkenes<\/em>;<\/p>\n

* alkynes<\/strong>, aliphatic hydrocarbons having at least two bonds pi<\/em> and one sigma<\/em> that occur between two carbon atoms.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that alkenes<\/strong> (As the ethylene<\/strong>) and the alkynes<\/strong> (As the acetylene<\/strong>) are also acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons. Ethylene occurs naturally in plants, although it is usually obtained from hydrocarbons. The same is true of acetylene, collected from Petroleum<\/strong> or natural gas through different industrial processes.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n
