pre lab quiz 3 Flashcards
which have a hydroxl functional grp (-OH)
alcohols
alcohol has what kind of functional group
hydroxyl functional group (-OH)
alcohols undergo what reactions
oxidation
substitution
alcohols can be classified as
primary
secondary
tertiary
alcohols is classified based on their
degree on the substitution around C that contains the OH functionality
primary alcohols undergo…
dehydration
oxidation
primary alcohols form what during dehydration reactions
alkenes
primary alcohols uses what strong oxidizing agents
and forms what
potassium dichromate
aldehyde
what is the potassium dichromate used when oxidizing primary alcohols
strong oxidizing agent
when primary alcohols undergo further reaction after forming aldehydes, what do they form
carboxylic acid
why do primary alcohols cant react further form carboxylic acid
as it uses mild oxidation
secondary alcohols produce…
ketone
secondary alcohols are treated with…
oxidizing agents
what kind of alcohols can undergo oxidation
primary
secondary
what kind of alcohols are resistant to oxidation
tertiary
which alcohol undergo substitution reaction
tertiary
what alcohol has the -OH as their leaving group
tertiary
what type of alcohols are aromatic compounds
phenols/ phenolics
why are phenols or phenolic an aromatic compound
as they have benzene ring
phenols has a benzene ring that…
has an -OH group directly attached to it
