Alcohols, enols and phenols
Classification
Alcohols and alkyl halides are classified as
primary
secondary
tertiary
according to their "degree of substitution."
Degree of substitution is determined by counting
the number of carbon atoms directly attached to
the carbon that bears the halogen or hydroxyl group.

Structure of Phenol
phenol is planar
C—O bond distance is 136 pm, which is
slightly shorter than that of CH3OH (142 pm)
Physical Properties
The OH group of phenols allows hydrogen
bonding
to other phenol molecules and to water.
