Interactive Course Summary
Hydrocarbon Saturation and π-Bond Energetics — Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons containing exclusively high-energy σ bonds. Alkenes are unsaturated compounds featuring a localized carbon-carbon π bond, which introduces a region of high electron density prone to exothermic thermodynamic addition pathways.
