Interpretation:
The alcohol present in the given compound has to be classified whether it is primary, secondary or tertiary.
Concept Introduction:
In an organic compound, the reactive portion is known as functional group. This undergoes reactions with other reagents and this does not depend upon how the rest of the compound is like. Few of the common functional groups are alcohol, ester, carboxylic acid, ketone, aldehyde etc. Functional group determines the nature of the compound.
The nitrogen containing linear compounds are classified as amines and amides. Amines are compounds that have nitrogen connected to alkyl or aromatic groups. Amides are compounds that have nitrogen connected to a carbonyl bond. In amine, if the nitrogen is bonded to only one alkyl group, it is known as primary amine. If the nitrogen is bonded to two alkyl, or two aromatic groups it is known as secondary amine. If the nitrogen is bonded to three alkyl or aromatic groups it is known as tertiary amine. If the nitrogen is bonded to a carbonyl group means it is known as amide.
