Chapter 11, Problem 11D.8E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The formula of $\text{1-hexanol}$ and the functional group present has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Alcohols:

Organic compounds that contain a hydroxyl group that is covalently bonded to a carbon atom $\text{R-OH}$.  Alcohols are classified into,

1. 1) Primary alcohol: One organic group attached to hydroxyl atom.
2. 2) Secondary alcohol: Two organic groups bonded to hydroxyl atom.
3. 3) Tertiary alcohol: Three organic groups bonded to hydroxyl atom.

The general formula for alcohol is,

Primary alcohol: ${\text{RCH}}_{\text{2}}\text{-OH}$

Secondary alcohol: ${\text{R}}_{\text{2}}\text{CH-OH}$

Tertiary alcohol: ${\text{R}}_{\text{3}}\text{C-OH}$

Phenol:

Organic compounds those in which, a hydroxyl group is attached directly to an aromatic ring is called as phenols.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Interpretation:

The formula of $\text{3-ethyl-2,2-dimethyl-3-pentanol}$ and the functional group present has to be given.
