Sulfur Functional Groups

Many organic molecules contain sulfur functional groups and have their own importance in chemistry as well as biology. Some of the organic molecules which contain sulfur functional groups and the corresponding sulfur functionality is given below:

Question

1. Cite some reactions in which formaldehyde behaves differently from other aldehydes. 2. Give some biological and medical applications of: a. formalin b. chloral c. urotropine

Definition Definition Organic compounds that have a carbonyl group, C=O, as their functional group. The carbonyl group in aldehydes is placed at the end of the molecular structure, which means the C=O is attached to one hydrogen atom and an alkyl group or a benzene ring. Just like all the other homologous series in organic chemistry, the naming of aldehydes uses the suffix “-al”. The general molecular formula is C n H 2n O.
