![]() ![]() ![]() Ethyl alcohol, distilled from wine, was considered to be “The essence” of wine. The word alcohol is one of the oldest chemical terms, derived from the easily Arabic al-kuhl: originally meaning “The powder” and later used as “the essence”. They are some of the most common and useful compounds in nature, in industry, and around house. And with all this we shall be dealing with alcohols, and their rich and varied chemistry.ġ.1 Introduction: Alcohols are organic compounds containing hydroxyl (-OH) groups. Then we shall take up a family of compounds closely related to alcohols i.e. In this connection we shall learn about the most important – and simplest – catalytic effect known to organic chemist : an effect that plays a key role in the chemistry of compounds of all kinds, in the test tube and in the living organisms. We shall begin our study of alcohols as the starting point of organic synthesis. We can not go very far into organic chemistry of almost any kind without encountering alcohols because we could make every kind of organic compounds and a host of others. Halogenation, Nitration, sulphonation and Reimer Tiemann reaction Alcohols, Ethers and Phenols: Alcohols (esterification, dehydration and oxidation) Reactions of alcohols with sodium, phosphorus, halide, ZnCl2/HCl. ![]()
