Review of Concepts in Organic Chemistry § Quantum number and atomic orbitals Atomic orbital wavefunctions are associated with four quantum numbers: principle q. n. (n=1,2,3), azimuthal q.n. (m= 0,1,2,3 or s,p,d,f,..magnetic q. n. (for p, -1, 0, 1; for d, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2. electron spin q. n. =1/2, -1/2.
§ Molecular dimensions Atomic radius ionic radius, ri:size of electron cloud around an ion. covalent radius, rc:half of the distance between two atoms of same element bond to each other. van der Waal radius, rvdw:the effective size of atomic cloud around a covalently bonded atoms.

Bond length measures the distance between nucleus (or the local centers of electron density). Bond angle measures the angle between lines connecting different nucleus.
Molecular volume and surface area can be the sum of atomic volume (or group volume) and surface area. Principle of additivity (group increment)
Physical basis of additivity law: the forces between atoms in the same molecule or different molecules are very “short range”.
Theoretical determination of molecular size:depending on the boundary condition.
Boundary is a certain minimum value of electron density.

§ Bond length and bond energy Bond length is nearly a constant property between molecules.
§ Polarizability The ability of electron cloud to distort in response to external field, defined as the magnitude of dipole induced by one unit of field gradient.
¾Polarizability decreases across a row of the periodic table, . (C>N>O>F, CH4>NH3>H2O) ¾ Polarizability increases along a column,(S>O, P>M, H2S>H2O) C-I bond is more polarizable than C-Cl ¾alkanes are more polarizable than alkenes, may due to Electronegativity. sp2 carbons are more electronegative than sp3 carbons.

Resonance Theory: An extension of valence bond theory for molecules that more than one Lewis structure can be written. Useful in describing electron delocalization, in conjugate system and reactive intermediates. (a)If more than one Lewis structure can be written, which has nuclear positions constant, but differ in assignment of electrons, the molecule is described by a combination of these structure (a hybrid of all). (b)The most favorable (lowest energy) resonance structure makes the greatest contribution to the true structure. determining energy : maximum number of covalent bond, minimum separation of unlike charge, placement of negative charge on most electronegative atom (vice versa). (c)Those with delocalized electrons are usually more stable than single localized structure. H 2C

From trigonometry, the calculated angles between two bond “dipole moment” are 89° , 122° , 180°. support the concept that benzene is planar.

The M.O. formed above is symmetry incorrect.
The symmetry of the M.O. must conform to the symmetry of the molecule in such a way that the M.O.’s are either symmetric or antisymmetric to all the symmetry elements of the molecule. Solution:form the delocalized methane M.O. directly form unhybridized orbitals:1C2s, 3C2p’s, 4H1s ψ1 = 0.545 C2s + 0.272 (H1 + H2 + H3 + H4) ψ 2 = 0.545 C2px+ 0.272 (H1 + H2 - H3 - H4) ψ3 = 0.545 C2p + 0.272 (H1 - H2 + H3 - H4) y
