Classification of Ether___❤
Depending on the type of the alkyl or aryl groups attached to the oxygen atom in ether, it can be classified into two types.
Symmetrical ether: Also known as the simple ether, the alkyl or the aryl group attached to either side of the oxygen atoms are the same. Examples are CH3OCH3, C2H5OC2H5, etc.
Unsymmetrical ether: Also known as the mixed either, the alkyl or the aryl group attached to either side of the oxygen atoms, are not the same. Examples are CH3OC2H5, C2H5OC6H5, etc.

Depending on the groups at R and R′, ethers are classified into two types: Simple ethers or symmetrical ethers; e.g., diethyl ether, dimethyl ether, dipropyl ether etc. Mixed ethers or asymmetrical ethers; e.g., ethyl methyl ether, methyl phenyl ether, etc.
Ether, any of a class of organic compounds characterized by an oxygen atom bonded to two alkyl or aryl groups. Ethers are similar in structure to alcohols, and both ethers and alcohols are similar in structure to water.
Examples of ethers include CH3CH2OCH2CH3, diethyl ether (sometimes referred to as ether), and CH3OCH2CH2OCH3, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (glyme).
