Answer:
Classify each structure according to its functional class.
Compound A contains a carbonyl bonded to two alkyl groups.
Compound B contains an oxygen bonded to two alkyl groups.
Compound C contains a carbonyl bonded to propyl and N H C H 3.
Compound D is a nitrogen bonded to three alkyl groups.
Explanation:
Compound A contains a carbonyl bonded to two alkyl groups.
-C=O group is called a carbonyl group.
If it is present between two alkyl groups then, it is a ketone.
Compound B contains oxygen bonded to two alkyl groups.
Compound B is an example of an ether molecule.
Compound C contains a carbonyl bonded to propyl and N H C H 3.
Compound C is C3H7-CO-NHCH3 which is an amide molecule.
Compound D is nitrogen bonded to three alkyl groups.
This is an example of a tertiary amine group.
