Alcohols & Halides!

Functional Groups are Organic Compounds containing elements other than Carbon and Hydrogen. Carbon chains without functional groups are written as R -, for example, R - OH. There are nine functional groups: 1. Alcohols 2. Halides 3. Aderhydes 4. Ketones 5. Carboxylic Acids 6. Ethers 7. Amines 8. Amides 9. Esters
Alcohols Alcohols are function organic molecules that contain the functional group OH. All Alcohols end in -ol.

Halides Halides occur when one of the elements in Group 7 bond to a hydrocarbon chain. Naiming follows standard rules with halides using floro-, chloro-, bromo-, iodo-.

Ethers Ethers are common organic compounds that contain an oxygen atom in the middle of two carbon chains. Oxygen is the parent chain.

Diethyl ether:

Ketones Ketones are carbon compounds that contain a double bonded Oxygen atom. They have a -one ending and can't be on the first or last carbon. Butanone:

Propanone (acetone):
