Chemical Groupsa. Functional Groupsb. ATPCurrent LectureChemical Groups -Distinctive properties of organic molecules depend on the carbon skeleton and on the molecular components attached to it.Functional Groups: the components of organic molecules that are most commonly involved in chemical reactions.-function is characteristic waysMost Important Functional groups:1. Hydroxyl: Alcohols- OH-Polar molecule that forms Hydrogen bonds2. Carboxyl: Carboxylic Acid- OH-C=O- Acts as an acid 3. Carbonyl: Ketone, Aldenhyde- C=O 4. Amino: Amines- NH2- Acts as a baseThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.5. Sulfydryl: Thiols - -SH- Stabilizes 6. Phosphate: organic phosphate( https://www.flickr.com/photos/loufcd/2873252901/)- Polar molecule- Negative Charge 7. Methyl Group: Methylated compounds-CH3- Turns genes on and ofATP: primary energy transferring molecule in the cell-Consists of an organic molecule, adenosine, that attached to a string of three phosphate groups.ATP -> Inorganic Phosphate + ADP +
