Aliphatic hydrocarbons
Aliphatic hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that consist of straight or branched chains of carbon atoms, or rings of carbon atoms other than those containing a special ring called a benzene ring

Homologous series
A homologous series is a family of organic compounds with the same general formula, similar chemical properties, and successive members differing by CH2
Alkanes, alkenes and alkynes are three different homologous series of aliphatic hydrocarbons

Alkanes
Alkanes are a homologous series of hydrocarbons with the general formula CnH2n+2
They are named systematically, with a prefix indicating the number of carbon atoms per molecule, and the ending “ane”

Alkanes
Alkane molecules are tetrahedral, e.g. propane

Structural formulas
The structural formula of an alkane indicates the way atoms in a molecule of the alkane are bonded together
The following slides show the structural formulas of some of the alkanes

![Page 15: 5.2 structure of aliphatic hydrocarbons](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a6b48af79596c268b470f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Pentane
![Page 16: 5.2 structure of aliphatic hydrocarbons](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a6b48af79596c268b470f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Structural isomers
Structural isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas
Butane (C4H10)is the simplest alkane which has structural isomers, called butane and 2-methylpropane respectively
The name 2-methylpropane indicates that there is a methyl (CH3) group attached instead of one of the hydrogen atoms to the second carbon in propane

Isomers of butane

An isomer of octane (C8H18)
2,2,4-trimethylpentane is so called because there are two methyl groups attached (in place of hydrogen atoms) to the second carbon atom and one (in place of another hydrogen atom) to the fourth carbon atom in a pentane molecule
