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. |
Let's first add a six membered cycle to the Display area. | |
Click on Add a six membered cycle tool>>
Click on Display area. |
Click on Add a six membered cycle tool.
Click on the Display area. |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicy of the existing one tool | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool.
Add two bonds on every corner of the cycle. |
Click and drag the bonds to proper position. | Position the bonds in such a way that no two bonds touch each other.
To do so, click and drag the bonds to proper position. |
Let's display carbon atoms at the corners of the cycle. | |
Right click on any one of the corner>>A sub-menu appears | Right click on any one of the corner.
A sub-menu appears. |
Select Atom >>click on Display symbol. | Select Atom and then click on Display symbol.
Likewise I will add Carbon atoms at all the corners of the cycle. |
Press capital H on the keyboard. | To add Hydrogen atoms to the bonds,
Press H on the keyboard. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>>
Click on all the bond positions. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool
Click on all the bond positions. |
Point to the Hydrogen atoms. | Again, see to it that no two Hydrogen atoms overlap each other.
The obtained structure is cyclohexane(C6H12). |
Let's copy and paste the structure | |
Press CTRL+A to select the structure >>
Press CTRL+C to copy>>Press CTRL+V to paste |
Press CTRL+A to select the structure.
Press CTRL+C to copy and Press CTRL+V to paste. |
Point to the structure. | Let's convert the second Cyclohexane structure to Cyclohexene. |
Click on the Eraser tool >>
delete one of the hydrogen bonds of the adjacent Carbon atoms. |
Click on the Eraser tool.
Delete one Hydrogen bond from each of the adjacent Carbon atoms. |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool.
Then click on alternate bonds of the cycle, between the deleted Hydrogen bonds. |
Point to the structure. | The obtained structure is Cyclohexene(C6H10). |
Slide Number 5
Assignment |
Here is an assignment.
Your completed assignment should look like this. |
Let's clear the Display area. | |
Press CTRL+A to select the structures >>
Press Delete key to delete |
Press CTRL+A to select the structures.
Press Delete key on the key board to delete. |
Next let's convert Cyclohexane to Benzene.
Ensure that Current element is Carbon. | |
Click on Add a six membered cycle tool>>
Click on Display area. |
Click on Add a six membered cycle tool.
Click on the Display area. |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool>>
Click on alternate bonds of the cycle. |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool.
Click on the alternate bonds and on all corners of the cycle. |
Let's add Hydrogen atoms to the bonds. | |
Press H on the keyboard. | Press H on the keyboard. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>>
Click on all the bond positions. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool
Click on all the bond positions. |
Point to the structure. | The Obtained structure is Benzene(C6H6). |
Let's now learn about Benzene derivatives. | |
Slide Number 6
Benzene Derivatives |
Various chemical compounds can be derived from Benzene .
This is done by replacing one or more of its hydrogen atoms with other functional groups. Hydrogen atoms can be replaced by F, Cl, Br, I and group of atoms like OH, NO2, CH3 and others. |
Let's copy and paste the Benzene structure twice on the Display area. | |
Press CTRL+A to select the object.
Press CTRL+C to copy >> Press CTRL+V twice to paste. |
Press CTRL+A to select the object.
Press CTRL+C to copy and Press CTRL+V twice to paste. |
Drag the overlapping structures aside | Position the structures side by side on the Display area. |
Let's replace Hydrogen atom of the first Benzene structure with F. | |
Press F on the keyboard. | Press F on the keyboard. |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>>
Click on H to replace it with F. Click on Add or modify an atom tool. |
Click on H to replace it with F.
The structure obtained is Fluorobenzene. |
Next let's replace the hydrogen atom of the second Benzene with a group of atoms. | |
Click on Add or modify a group of atoms tool>>
Click on the Hydrogen atom. |
Click on Add or modify a group of atoms tool.
Click on the Hydrogen atom. |
Point to enclosed Hydrogen. | Observe that Hydrogen is enclosed in a green box with a blinking cursor. |
Delete Hydrogen and type capital CH and 3. | Delete Hydrogen and type capital CH and 3 and
click anywhere on the Display area. The obtained structure is Methylbenzene. |
Click on the hydrogen of third Benzene structure. | Likewise let's click on the hydrogen of third Benzene structure. |
Delete Hydrogen and type capital NO and 2 in a green box | Delete Hydrogen and type capital NO and 2 in a green box
The obtained structure is Nitrobenzene. |

Here is an assignment.
C2H5 groups Your completed assignment should look like this. |
Now let's merge two structures. | |
Press CTRL+A to select all objects>>
Press Delete key |
To clear the Display area.
Press CTRL+A to select all objects. Press Delete key on the Keyboard. |
Click on the Add a four membered cycle tool>>Click on the Display area. | Click on the Add a four membered cycle tool.
Press 'C' on your keyboard. Click on the Display area twice. |
Click on Select one or more objects tool >>
select the second structure. |
Click on Select one or more objects tool to select the second structure. |
Drag the structure and place it close to the first structure>>
Press CTRL+A to select structures. |
Drag the structure and place it overlapping the first structure.
Press CTRL+A to select both the structures. |
Click on Merge two molecules tool to merge the molecules. | Merge two molecules tool becomes active.
Click on Merge two molecules tool to merge the molecules. Drag the structure to observe the merging. <pause> |
