Classify the following alcohol as primary,
1 answer:
The classification of the alcohols gives;
- Compound 1 - Primary alcohol
- Compound 2 - Tertiary alcohol
- Compound 3 - Secondary alcohol
- Compound 4 - Secondary alcohol
Organic compounds occurs in families. The family of compounds is called a homologous series. The homologous series always have a functional group. The functional group is the atom, group of atoms or bond that is responsible for the chemical reactivity of the members of a given homologous series.
Now we know that the alcohols are those organic compounds that contains the -OH group. The could be aliphatic or alicyclic compounds. We shall now proceed to name the kind of alcohols that each of the compounds shown are;
- Compound 1 - Primary alcohol
- Compound 2 - Tertiary alcohol
- Compound 3 - Secondary alcohol
- Compound 4 - Secondary alcohol
