Hydrates

In chemistry, a hydrate is a substance that contains water or its

constituent elements. The chemical state of the water varies widely

between different classes of hydrates.

In organic chemistry, a hydrate is a compound formed by the hydration,

i.e. "Addition of water or of the elements of water (i.e. H and OH)

to a molecular entity“. For example: ethanol, CH3−CH2−OH, is the

product of the hydration reaction of ethene, CH2=CH2, formed by

the addition of H to one C and OH to the other C, and so can be

considered as the hydrate of ethene.

Hydrates are inorganic

salts "containing

water molecules

combined in a definite

ratio as an integral

part of the crystal" 

They are either bound to

a metal center
or that have crystallized

complex.
Clathrates

A clathrate is a chemical substance consisting

of a lattice that traps or contains

molecules. Traditionally, clathrate

compounds are polymeric and completely

envelop the guest molecule, clathrates

also include host–guest
 Methane clathrate or
complexes and inclusion compounds.  fire ice is a solid clathrate
compound in which a
large amount of methane
host
is trapped within a crystal
structure of water.

Dihydrogen (H2) as Ligand

Dihydrogen complexes are transition metal species in which a

molecule of molecular hydrogen acts as a two electron

sigma donor to the metal center.

The H2 molecule thus acts a neutral two electron sigma donor. 

MIR TAMZID RAHMAN, Chemistry, JU 6


The H2 molecule takes a ‘side-on’ orientation with respect to the

metal and the bonding is accomplished by a combination of –

(a) Weak donation of the bonding electrons of the H2 molecule

to an empty σ orbital of the metal atom.

(b) Acceptance of electrons from filled orbital of the metal atom

into σ* anti-bonding orbital of H2.

Hydrogen Bonding

When hydrogen is bonded to a highly

electronegative atom (e.g. N, O, F), the

bonding electron pair is drawn towards

the electronegative atom.

Hydrogen has no inner shell electron and is very

small in size, the positive charge density -

pair electrons on the electronegative atom.
Electrostatic attraction between hydrogen atoms bonded to

small, strongly electronegative atoms (N, O and F) and the

lone pair electrons on these electronegative atoms.

Partial positive end of H is attracted to partial negative end

of O, N or F of another molecule.

Relatively stronger forces of attraction among molecules and

considerable energy is required to break hydrogen bonds.

CONDITIONS FOR HYDROGEN BONDING

A hydrogen bond H – Z is only effective when Z is strongly

electronegative. Higher is the electronegativity greater is

the polarization of the molecule.

The size of electronegative atoms should be small. Smaller is

the size greater is the electrostatic attraction. Thus only

F,O and N atoms satisfy these conditions and form

hydrogen bond of higher electronegativities.

Chlorine having same electronegativity as that of nitrogen

does not form H - bond due to its large size.

TYPES OF HYDROGEN BONDING

 Intermolecular hydrogen bonding

 Intramolecular hydrogen bonding

INTERMOLECULAR HYDROGEN BONDING

When hydrogen bonds formed between the two or more

molecules of the same or different compounds they are

called intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

Hydrogen fluoride, water, alcohols, and solutions of alcohol or

ammonia in water involve intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

INTRAMOLECULAR HYDROGEN BONDING

These involve electrostatic force of attraction between hydrogen

and an electronegative element both present in the same

molecule.
