Question

Write the structure of an organic compound containing following functional groups.
i) Keto group
ii) Carboxyl group
iii) Hydroxyl group
iv) Nitrile group

Answer 1

The structural formula of the organic compound containing those functional groups are-

i)R-CO-R, C forms double bond with O

ii)R-COOH, C forms double bond with O and single bond with OH

iii)R-OH,OH is the reactive functional group

iv)It is not known to me.

Let R be C2H5(Ethyle).

Therefore-----

i)C2H5-CO-C2H5

ii)C2H5-COOH

iii)C2H5-OH

iv)Not known to me

All of the previous R s are alkanes joined by just double bond.

Drawing Structural formula here is not possible, So I have jst drawn the Molecular formula.

Hope this will help you!

Thank You...........
