Q:

What types of orbital overlap occur in Cumulene?

Answer

A cumulene is a hydrocarbon with three or more cumulative double bonds. They are analogous to allenes, only having a more extensive chain. The simplest molecule in this class is butatriene, which is also called simply cumulene.


 


The carbons on the ends are sp² hybridized, with a p-orbital for the 'second' bond in the double bond with their neighboring carbons.


They have those sp² orbitals overlapping with the s from the hydrogen, and they have a p overlapping in the pi bond with the neighboring carbon. They also have a sigma bond with the neighboring carbon I'll get to.


The middle carbons each have two pi bonds with their neighbors, leaving sp hybridiaztion for the rest. So they have sp/sp² with the end carbons, and sp/sp with each other. (And they also have p/p in the pi bonds).


 


All orbital overlappings in Cumuene are :


* s/sp²


* p/p


* sp/sp²


* sp/sp
