Classes Of Functional Groups

Organic Chemistry deals mostly with carbon and hydrogens, also called hydrocarbons, but those groups which replace hydrogen and bonds with carbon to give a characteristic nature, unique of their own, to the hydrocarbon they are attached to, are called fu…

Characteristics Of Functional Groups

In organic chemistry, we encounter a number of special substituent groups which are attached to the hydrocarbon backbone. These groups impart certain characteristics to the molecule of which it is a part of and thus, become the highlight of that particul…

IUPAC Nomenclature

In Chemistry, IUPAC stands for International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry which suggested a systematic naming approach for the organic and inorganic compounds, as in the beginning stage of nomenclature one single chemical compound was named in man…

Draw the products (including stereoisomers) formed when benzaldehyde (C6H5CHO) is treated with each Wittig reagent.

What is each ether’s systematic name?

Two naturally occurring compounds that contain stable cyclic hemiacetals and acetals are monensin and digoxin, the chapter-opening molecule. Monensin, a polyether antibiotic produced by Streptomyces cinamonensis, is used as an additive in cattle feed. Digoxin is a widely prescribed cardiac drug used to increase the force of heart contractions. Label each acetal, hemiacetal, and ether in both compounds.
