give any four functional groups containing oxygen as the heteroatom in it. write name and structural formula of one example each
Answers
Answer:
Oxygen-containing functional groups include the alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids as well as a variety of derivatives of the carboxylic acids such as the amides, esters, and acid halides.
The four functional group which contains Oxygen as the hetreroatoms are :-
⇒ (i) R- OH (Alcohol)
⇒ (ii) R-O-R (Ether)
⇒ (iii) R-CHO (Aldehyde)
⇒ (iv) R-COOH (Carboxylic acid)
Example, Names & Structural formula ⇒
For R- OH (Alcohol)
CH₃-CH₂-OH ---→ Ethanol
