is an OC with an -OH group called hydroxyl, that is bonded to a carbon atom. organic compound
Alcohol
are compounds with the general formula R-O-R. The most common ether is diethyl ether. It is commonly used as a solvent & formerly used as a general anesthetic.
Ethers
▷ consist of a carbonyl group (carbon double bonded to oxgen. C-O), which is bonded to one HR group.
Aldehydes
one of the most widely used ketones is propanone (acetone) it is used as paint or nail polish remover.
Ketones
▷ are characterized by the presence of a carboxyl group which consists of carbong) (c = 0)
and hydroxyl (OH)
Carboxyl Acids
are O.C consisting of carbonyl group adjacent to an ether linkage (-OR).
Esters
derivatives of ammonia (N*H_{3}) wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have replaced by an a|ky| group - N * H_{2}
Amines
generally formed by the reaction of a corboxylic acid with amine. It is characterized by a carbonyl group (c = 0) linked to a Nitrogen
