The alcoholic group, OH and halogen group present in the given synthetic steroid, dexamethasone are to classified as 1 ° , 2 ° , or 3 ° . Concept introduction: The alkyl halide and alcohol are identified as primary ( 1 ° ) , secondary ( 2 ° ) and tertiary, ( 3 ° ) . The primary alkyl halide or alcohol is the one in which a halide group or OH group is attached to that carbon atom which is bonded with one carbon atom only. The secondary alkyl halide or alcohol is the one in which a halide group or OH group is attached to that carbon atom which is bonded with two carbon atoms. The tertiary alkyl halide or alcohol is the one in which halide group or OH group is attached to that carbon atom which is bonded with three carbon atoms.
