Organic Chemistry Functional Groups

Alkanes

Not really a functional group- it’s a scaffold. Only C-H single bonds.

Alkenes

Contain a c-c double bond.

Alkynes

Contains a C-C triple bond.

Alcohol

contains an OH group (hydroxyl) Bonded to carbon. Single bonds only

Ether

Contains an O atom bonded to 2 carbons- single bonds only.

Amine

NR_3 where R is double bonded to C and/or H single bonds only.

Aldehydes and Ketones

Contains carbon/oxygen double bonds (Carbonyl)

Carboxylic acids

Carbonyl group bonded to a hydroxyl group

Ester

Contains carbonyl group bonded to an OR group where R=Carbon

How many different types (unique) of functional groups are in Zoapatanol?

Amide

Contains carbonyl group bonded to an NR_2 Group where R=Carbon or H

Phosphate Ester
