Chemistry Organic Building Blocks Alcohols
In chemistry, alcohols are organic compounds characterized by the presence of one or more hydroxyl (−OH) functional groups attached to saturated carbon atoms.
Numerous alcohols are synthesized through a process known as hydroxylation, which involves the introduction of a hydroxyl group using oxygen or other oxidizing agents.
Alcohols exhibit various types of reactions, including oxidation, dehydration, substitution, esterification, and reactions involving alkoxides, which are among the most common reaction types.
The majority of common alcohols are clear and colorless liquids at room temperature. Methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol are examples of free-flowing liquids that emit fruity odors.
