Dr Shatha I Alaqeel 108 Chem Learning Objectives Chapter seven discusses the following topics and by the end of this chapter the students will Know the structure of ethers Know the different methods of naming ethers. 1 Phenolic Ethers Alkyl Phenolics Heterocyclic Ethers Larger PAH 500 600 700 800 900 Figure 1 Formation of biomass tars and example of compounds formed Alcohols and Ethers. Alcohols. Alcohols are compounds whose molecules have a hydroxyl group attached to a saturated carbon atom. The saturated carbon may be that of a simple alkyl group . Examples. Or the saturated carbon may be connected to an . Mass spectrometer. n-hexane. MS. Alcohols, ethers, thiols. Sweet. Hydrogen . bonding. Hydrophilic. Hydrophobic. Oxidation. 12.1 Alcohols: Structure and Physical Properties. An organic compound containing a hydroxyl group attached to an alkyl group. . Ethers are relatively unreactive.. Ethers are often used as solvents in organic reactions.. Ethers oxidize in air to form explosive hydroperoxides and peroxides.. “Crown” ethers are useful as enhancers in nucleophilic substitution and other reactions. Structure. Ethers have two organic groups (alkyl, aryl, or vinyl) bonded to the same oxygen . atom.. R groups are identical = symmetrical ether. R groups are different = unsymmetrical ether. Oxygen is .
