The Lewis of organic compounds, carbon andstructure or dot structure, dash structure, hydrogen atoms are not shown and thecondensed structure and bond line structural lines representing carbon-carbon bonds areformulas are some of the specific types. The drawn in a zig-zag fashion. The only atomsLewis structures, however, can be simplified specifically written are oxygen, chlorine,by representing the two-electron covalent nitrogen etc. The terminals denote methylbond by a dash (–). Such a structural formula (–CH3) groups (unless indicated otherwise byfocuses on the electrons involved in bond a functional group), while the line junctionsformation.

Some of thepairs of electrons on heteroatoms (e.g., oxygen, examples are represented as follows:nitrogen, sulphur, halogens etc.) may or may (i) 3-Methyloctane can be represented innot be shown. Thus, ethane (C2H6), ethene various forms as:(C2H4), ethyne (C2H2) and methanol (CH3OH) can be represented by the following structural (a) CH3CH2CHCH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 formulas. Such structural representations are | called complete structural formulas.

The resulting expression of the compound is called a condensed structural formula.

These are made of wood, plastic or metal and are commercially available. Commonly three types of molecular models are used: (1) Framework model, (2) Ball-and-stick model, and (3) Space filling model. In the framework model only the bonds connecting the atoms of a molecule and not the atoms themselves are shown. This model emphasizes the pattern of bonds of a molecule while ignoring the size of atoms. In the ball-and-stick model, both the atoms and the bonds are shown. Balls represent atoms and the stick denotes a bond. Compounds containing C=C (e.g., ethene) can best be represented by using8.3.2 Three-Dimensional springs in place of sticks. These models are Representation of Organic referred to as ball-and-spring model. The Molecules space-filling model emphasises the relative The three-dimensional (3-D) structure of size of each atom based on its van der Waals organic molecules can be represented on radius.

In addition to these models,example, by using solid ( ) and dashed computer graphics can also be used for( ) wedge formula, the 3-D image of a molecular modelling. molecule from a two-dimensional picture can be perceived. In these formulas the solid-wedge is used to indicate a bond projecting out of the plane of paper, towards the observer. The dashed-wedge is used to depict the bond projecting out of the plane of the paper and away from the observer. Wedges are shown in such a way that the broad end of the wedge is towards the observer.
