Title Slide |
Hello everyone.
Welcome the tutorial on Formation of bonds in GChemPaint. |
Slide Number 2
Learning Objectives |
In this tutorial, we will learn
Add bonds to the existing bond Orient the bonds Add Stereochemical bonds Inverse wedge hashes |
Slide Number 3
System Requirement |
Here I am using
Ubuntu Linux OS version. 12.04 GChemPaint version 0.12.10 |
Slide Number 4 | Pre-requisites
To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with, GChemPaint chemical structure editor. If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website. |
Switch to GchemPaint application. | I have opened a new GChemPaint application with Ethane structure. |
Let's learn to convert saturated hydrocarbon to usaturated hydrocarbons. | |
Point to the Ethane structure. | Let's copy Ethane structure and paste it twice on the Display area. |
Click on Select one or more objects tool to select Ethane. | Click on Select one or more objects tool to select Ethane structure. |
Press CTRL +C to copy the structure
Press CTRL + V to paste the copied structure |
Press CTRL +C to copy the structure.
Press CTRL + V to paste the copied structure Observe that two structures overlap each other. |
Place the cursor on the structure >>drag it with the mouse. |
Let's move the second overlapping structure aside.
Place the cursor on the structure and drag it with the mouse. |
Point to the bonds. | Observe the single bond between the carbon atoms in the structures. |
Let's first convert the single bond to a double bond. | |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of existing one tool. | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of existing one tool. |
Click on the existing bond of the second ethane structure. | Click on the existing bond of the second Ethane structure. |
Point to the structure.
Point to the hydrogen atoms. |
Observe that 1) Single bond is converted to a double bond.
2)Number of hydrogen atoms reduced from 6 to 4. The new structure is Ethene. |
Next let's convert the single bond to a triple bond. | |
Click on the existing bond of the third ethane structure twice. | Click on the existing bond of the third Ethane structure twice. |
Point to the structure.
Point to the hydrogen atoms. |
Observe that 1) Single bond is converted to a triple bond.
2)Number of hydrogen atoms reduced from 6 to 2. The new structure is Ethyne. |
Click on Add or modify a text tool >>Click below the structures. | Let's name the structures.
Click on Add or modify a text tool Click below the structures. |
Enter the names in green boxes. | Enter the names of the structures as Ethane, Ethene and Ethyne in the green boxes. |
Slide Number 5
Show slide on Tetrahedral Methane structure. |
Next, let's learn about Tetrahedral geometry.
Here is a slide for the Tetrahedral Methane structure. |
Now, let's draw Ethane structure. | |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of existing one tool>>Orient the bond in horizontal direction. | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of existing one tool
Orient the bond in horizontal direction. |
Point to the bond | On the edge of each bond let's draw three bonds.
Orient the bonds to form a tetrahedral geometry. |
Click on one edge>>orient the three bonds in different directions. | Click on one edge.
Then orient the three bonds in different directions. Likewise let's draw for the other edge. |
Let's attach hydrogen atoms at the ends. | |
Press capital H >>a Submenu opens select H
To attach hydrogen atoms to the ends, |
Press capital H.
A submenu opens in which we will select H. Observe that Hydrogen atom appears in the tool box. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool
Click on all the positions to add hydrogens. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool.
Click on all the positions to add hydrogens. |
Let's now add stereochemical bonds to Ethane structure. | |
